  d. The kind of archaeology most frequently practiced today by Americanist archaeologists.
  e. The kind of archaeology most frequently practiced today by European archaeologists.

Question 2

H. Marie Wormington is an important character in the development of Americanist archaeology during the first half of the 20th century because:
 
  a. She illustrates how difficult it was for a woman to break into the male-dominated field of Americanist archaeology at that time; although well-qualified to conduct archaeological research, she was never given the opportunity.
  b. She is an example of a female pioneer in Americanist archaeology, and her contributions are still considered important today.
  c. She shows that although women were interested in archaeology during this time, they simply weren't yet ready to participate in archaeological research; Wormington's research was irrelevant and scientifically unsound.
  d. She illustrates that although women were not yet permitted to conduct archaeological research during this time, they were still important in the field during excavations as camp cooks and logistical organizers.
  e. She demonstrates that archaeology is a male dominated field because women are incapable of carrying out the chores of field work.
