Skidmore Archaeological Collection

The Skidmore Archaeological Collection (SAC) is comprised of over 5,000 artifacts, ecofacts, and samples and an archive of records from archaeological surveys, excavations, donations, and research. It facilitates and is a product of teaching and research about the human past of the Skidmore College campus, our community of Saratoga Springs, the upper Hudson River Valley and American Northeast more broadly. The SAC’s primary purpose is to support student learning, the Anthropology Department’s Student Learning Goals, and student and faculty research. Skidmore students have the opportunity to take classes that generate and use 集合 and work as 集合 assistants to learn aspects of 集合 care. Faculty use 集合 in teaching and research. We also recognize the interests and rights of descendant and local communities with regard to archaeological 集合 and research and the responsibility to engage with those stakeholders as part of sound 集合 management. We comply with all relevant local, state, and federal laws when conducting archaeological fieldwork and curating 集合. We adhere to the Principles of Archaeological Ethics by the Society for American Archaeology in carrying out curation, stewardship, and educational responsibilities.
