Background

About Allison Fraser

With a B.A. honours in Archaeology and a double major in Anthropology and Classics, my interests in history range from North American pre-contact (and the Classical period in Europe) to the recent past. I am particularity interested in the landscape, geomorphology, and non-invasive methods of archaeological research. My honours thesis assessed the utility of the EM38B susceptibility component in detecting subtle sub-surface earth or wood features (as opposed to the traditional uses on stone archaeological features). I have local and international field and laboratory experience in the form of university affiliated field schools, as well as contract employment with multiple consulting companies. In 2014 I was a CCH category B Heritage Research Permit holder, in association with my undergraduate thesis research. I absolutely love being outdoors; hiking and camping are my primary recreation activities. I am fully licensed (10 years accident free), skilled in the operation of both automatic and standard transmission vehicles, own my own vehicle, and am willing to travel for work.
