Hey everyone... I'm a bit stumped. The program title "Classical archaeology" remains loyal to classical studies, yet one can study classical archaeology through anthropology departments here in the US. I know that, to be eligible for admission into classical departments, students must have a ton of ancient Greek and Latin. For anthropology... not so much. I'm definitely lacking Greek and Latin (having discovered my interest in classics late) with only 2 years of Latin and 1 of Greek. I'm double majoring in anthropology, classical studies and minoring in geology. My interest lies within Late Bronze Age Greece and its Geoarchaeology... Long story short... what is the big deal with the division between departments? What makes a classical archaeologist from the classics department so different from an anthro. dep. one? Is it worth (financially) completing a post bac to catch up on languages??
