Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic of 2020–2021 has disrupted life in just about every way imaginable. Many in the ASOR community have been hindered by the lack of access to collections, publications, and colleagues. For most archaeologists, fieldwork plans came to a screeching halt in spring 2020. While some were able to resume fieldwork in summer 2020 or summer 2021 with smaller teams and new precautions, many have not traveled overseas in nearly two years. While the long-term impact of the pandemic on the discipline in general and ASOR in particular will not be known for years, it is important to share our individual stories and document how our research lives continue to be affected now. In this essay, four archaeologists—two who were able to participate in archaeological fieldwork in 2020–2021 and two who were not—write about their experiences of archaeology in a pandemic.
期刊介绍：
Archaeological discoveries continually enrich our understanding of the people, culture, history, and literature of the Middle East. The heritage of its peoples -- from urban civilization to the Bible -- both inspires and fascinates. Near Eastern Archaeology brings to life the ancient world from Mesopotamia to the Mediterranean with vibrant images and authoritative analyses.
