François archaeological field survey

The François archaeological field survey is a systematic process of examining a specific area to identify and document historical or prehistoric sites and artifacts. It involves walking through the landscape carefully, taking notes, and recording features like pottery, tools, or architectural remains. This survey helps archaeologists understand human activity in the region, assess site significance, and plan further excavations or conservation efforts. It provides a non-invasive way to gather crucial information about past cultures and their environments by studying surface evidence before any digging takes place.
