Handbook, this contains a specific section dealing with ten Projects appropriate to the different themes.
You will also find Health and Safety Guidelines, Classification of Monuments and a Glossary of terms.

Theme 1, Worship & Commemoration, has units on worship; monasticism; pilgrimage and commemoration.
This theme covers a large part of the archaeological record; many of the monuments and artefacts that archaeologists
study relate to how people worshipped in past times and how they buried and commemorated their dead.

Theme 2, Living and Lifestyle, has units on houses, defence, towns and lifestyle. These four topics relate to critical
aspects of human life, combining the provision of basic social needs with the use of technology. This theme ranges from
the primitive hut of a Stone Age hunter to the sophisticated arrangements of a walled medieval town.

Theme 3, Archaeology at Work, focuses on the subject of archaeology itself. It looks at how archaeologists research
and discover monuments using maps, the internet and other sources. It also examines the processes of archaeological
excavation and archaeology as a profession in Ireland.
