Abstract

Web scraping, the practice of automating the collection of data from websites, is a key part of how the internet functions, and it is an increasingly important part of the research tool kit for scientists, cultural resources professionals, and journalists. There are few resources intended to train archaeologists in how to develop web scrapers. Perhaps more importantly, there are also few resources that outline the normative, ethical, and legal frameworks within which scraping of archaeological data is situated. This article is intended to introduce archaeologists to web scraping as a research method, as well as to outline the norms concerning scraping that have evolved since the 1990s, and the current state of US legal frameworks that touch on the practice. These norms and legal frameworks continue to evolve, representing an opportunity for archaeologists to become more involved in how scraping is practiced and how it should be regulated in the future.

考古学中网络搜索的合法性与道德性
网络搜刮,即从网站自动收集数据的做法,是互联网运作的关键部分,也是科学家、文化资源专业人员和记者研究工具包中日益重要的一部分。旨在培训考古学家如何开发网络刮擦工具的资源少之又少。也许更重要的是,很少有资源概述考古数据刮擦所处的规范、伦理和法律框架。本文旨在向考古学家介绍作为一种研究方法的网络搜刮,并概述自 20 世纪 90 年代以来发展起来的有关网络搜刮的规范,以及与这一做法相关的美国法律框架的现状。这些规范和法律框架仍在继续演变,为考古学家提供了一个机会,使他们能够更多地参与到如何进行刮研以及未来应如何对其进行监管的工作中来。
