Good things and bad things in the first half


One of the best things that had the first half, is that class made ​​me one of the most renowned archaeologists, Mauricio Uribe (MUR). He is very good at what he does, and although it is somewhat demanding, I think we learned a lot from him.

Also one of the good things that happened is that we had two field trips in the semester, one went to San Antonio and the other in San Pedro de Atacama, in learned them a lot, as I learned in the first field when is archeology, and the another met a new cultural universe.


Overall the first half had a lot of good, because I learned many new things, such as is archeology and how we can study the culture through materiality.

But the only bad thing I can emphasize is that demand academic is fairly , ie, we "exploded" reading. The branches have great academic load, which together sometimes hard for half as much time to dedicate each.

But after all such requirement helps us get used to read and create the habit, and also know new things.

My favorite place


A place I would like to know, and I thing that although it isn't know is my favorite place, is Egypt.
I find it a culturally and scenically beautiful; behind all its ruins has great stories, great rulers, and wise peoples.

I really like this place, because I care tremendously called its architecture; pyramids seem to me a fascinating thing. These are sites that await many secrets.

The story that has this culture also I seems magical, their traditions, myths, legends, are things that make this place unique, special and magical to me.

Also one of the reasons why I like very much is because it relates to my career, archeology, I think it helps me understand many things and give special value to these places that are so beautiful.

Finally I would like to know about this place because I have the feeling that they can rescue a lot of it and learn a lot about Egyptian culture, really love it, because it seems to be a magical place, a place with many stories.

Well, I hope know of place some day!!

My Favorite Class: Archaeological Theory II


My favorite class is “Archaeological Theory II”, because is a topic that help me to understand as the archaeology developed in the time, and as we can to improve the quality of the archaeology. 

The topic is very demanding because we are much read, but that help we to crate the habit of read for every class and we can also to criticize the theories since our perspective.   Apart from the modality of the class to allow that all classmates we talk and we share because way the dialogue or discussion we can idea exchange and we can to arrive to consensus envelope the deal topic.

The class very necessary for we can understand as it`s the archaeology today, as we can to interpreted the archaeological search, and as we can to improve previous works.

In the class to generate dynamics that our prepare for the work experience, for example in the teaching or creating papers. 
 
The importance that has the class in my professional life is that with the tools that our have the teacher we can interpret of way more actuality the archaeological search. 

Only not we can have the basic knowledge with matter to way of to excavate or the prehistory, but is necessary to understand to that we are see in the registry, and as this registry our tell of the past and also to present.

Energy, Anthropology and Archaeology in Chile


The energy issue in our country is a contingent matter that needs a check from many angles. Chile today is generating new energy generating means, however for the realization of these projects is not only necessary to have a large capital but also needed the approval of Chilean law.
In this particular case the performance of the thermoelectric "La Castilla", did not meet the requirements requested that the judicial system to carry out the project, and it happened to bring  environmental regulations.
If this project is approved and complies with all regulations, must submit an EIA (environmental impact study). But environmental regulations not only consist in biological and chemical pollution that a company can make to the environment, but also pollution that may be generated in the communities surrounding this. Many people are affected by the implementation of these projects, as their way of life can be seen interrupted or affected, generating economic deficiency, social, cultural and political in the life in them.
Thus the system of environmental impact assessment (SEIA) ensures environmental welfare, and anthropological. But also one of the requirements needed for the project can be approved and implemented, is to conduct archaeological surveys, because the law says that everything on Earth's surface or under it is owned by the State, for which prior to build any type of building, it is necessary to record whether the area remains or not archaeological, and depending on the presence or absence of them is what is also delayed in approving the project.
Archaeology in the past 15 years has been very important in terms of environmental impact studies, as each day in our country are generating  more environmentally and culturally aware. Thus archeology in EIA has emerged as a useful tool to preserve the archaeological material of our country and also for more awareness overall enterprise level.
In these studies the archeology has more still room, since the issue of the environment and energy is contingent, however as long as these contingencies and types of study, the discipline of archeology will run, but to validity  that is practical and effective that at any time may be exhausted.

After graduation, Benjamin returns home, only to learn his wife has moved to Italy.
He lives with Roscoe, who treats him very sternly, making Benjamin call him "Uncle" in front of his house guests. As the years progress, Benjamin turns from a moody teenager into a young child.

Eventually Roscoe has a child that later attends kindergarten with Benjamin. After kindergarten, Benjamin slowly begins to lose memory of his earlier life. His memory fades away to the point where he cannot remember anything except his nurse. Then everything fades to darkness.
