The idea of franchising makes you think of fast food restaurants or real estate brokers. But did you know that almost any type of business could be a franchise?

The simulated dig teaches basics of archaeology, the logic of horizontal excavation, and the importance of keeping records and preserving the context of finds. The lessons in thinking, categorizing, recording, drawing, writing, and analysis are applicable to many disciplines. Adding culturally specific artefacts or laminated images makes the excavation relevant to even more fields. Teachers should modify the site to suit their classroom goals and areas of study.
