What Kind of Archaeologist Are You?

By Joey Burns, Jenna Jula and Shelby Larson

Created for the Portland State University’s Public Archaeology (Anth 460) class, Spring 2021

Are you interested in the field of archaeology? But don’t know what subfield may interest you the most? Fear no more! We have created a personality quiz that will ask questions about your interests to help figure out what subfield of archaeology may be right for you! Then, once you are done with the quiz, it will give you a link to a video, created by one of us, that explains a little bit more about your subfield!

Linked below is the quiz. Or, if you just want to jump straight into the videos, all six are linked below as well.

Have fun!
