Have made previously the subject of Introduction to the Archaeology.
The subject has like aim the introduction to the basic knowledges of the methodology and the technicians of the study of laboratory in Prehistoric Archaeology. It will enter to the students in the Archaeometry of the materials lithics, pottery, metallic, incising particularly in like posing and develop the study of the raw materials, the technical of production and the forms of consumption. The contents of this subject are oriented to give to the students the necessary basic instruments for can work the archaeologic materials with category of historical documents.

Directed activities
The course centres in learning of the study of different type of archaeologic materials from sessions theoretic-practical developed to the Laboratory.
1.-Activities to the Laboratory. They will realize sessions theoretic-practical where will combine the explanation of theoretical concepts, systems of study and analysis, variables of study, etc. With the realization the practical activities that allow to put in practical and evaluate the capacity of obtaining significant data of the concepts purchased. The activities of practical will consist in explanation and discussion of cases of study, analysis of archaeologic materials, etc.
2. Autonomous activity. From the theoretical sessions of introduction and the dossiers of the course, the students will work with the extension and the assimilation of the basic concepts involved in the study of the archaeologic materials. His application during the practical will facilitate the acquisition of the own capacities required for the development of the study of the different types of archaeologic materials treaties.

Title | Weighting | Hours | ECTS | Learning Outcomes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Assistance and participation in the theoretical-practices classes | 10% | 3 | 0.12 | 2, 6, 10, 12, 11 |
Practices dossier | 30% | 3 | 0.12 | 2, 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12 |
Work of course | 60% | 0 | 0 | 2, 1, 3, 5, 6, 12 |
The competences will be evaluated by means of: works and evaluation of the practical activities.
The system of evaluation organizes of the following way: thematic Block A: 40%; thematic Block B: 20% of the note; thematic Block C: 40% of the note.
Class attendance is mandatory.
In each one of the thematic modules will be evaluate of the following way:
Assistance and participation in the classes theoretic-practical (10% global weight).
Module of delivery of the dossiers of practical (30% global weight).
Work of course or final exam (Theoretical and practical contents) (60% global weight).
The final note will be the half of the note weighted on 100 obtained in the different blocks.
To surpass the course in necessary to obtain a score of 5 in a scale of 10.
At the time of completion/delivery of each assessment activity, the teacher will inform (Moodle, SIA) of the procedure and date of revision of the grades.
To pass the subject it is essential to pass the three thematic blocks, either through the continuous assessment or through the reassessment test. Not passing one of the blocks means not passing the subject.
It will consider non-evaluable the student that do not submit the practical and/or the corresponding works of 2 thematic blocks.
Reevaluation: The students that have not attained a note of 5 in any of the thematic blocks, will be able to present to the test of reevaluation of that or of those thematic blocks that they have suspended. The test of reevaluation will consist in a test written.
In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.
This subject does not incorporate single assessment.
