The ways in which the teaching of artifact processing and interpretation takes place in field schools varies according to the cultural periods represented, the relative value given in different archaeological traditions for various artifact classes, and the methodologies applied to such finds. For ease of comparison, three historical archaeology field schools are considered, one each from North America, Britain, and Australia, to reveal these contrasting traditions and practices.
