GSA 2015 geoarchaeology

Hey everyone, this is David coming at you from GSA 2015, in lovely Baltimore. First off, I'd like to congratulate Ashley Horton on an excellent presentation this morning on synthesizing kidney stones. Moving on, I attended a career mentor lunch where geologists ,who are employed by the federal government, answered questions and gave advice about pursuing careers in the government sector. After that, I spent my afternoon attending talks about geoarchaeology,  which is an interdisciplinary speciality that combines: geology, geography, history, and anthropology. One of the main topics for this afternoon was using geoarchaeological methods to search for pre clovis sites which are hypothetical representations  of some of the earliest migrants to the North American continent. Anyone with a interest in history and geology should look into this speciality.
