Abstract

Archaeological research in Canada’s easternmost province has enjoyed a long and evolving history of community partnerships. This is due, in part, to Memorial University’s unique mandate, as well as the Department of Archaeology’s strong commitment to working with individuals and organizations where excavations are conducted. Three case studies from Newfoundland and Labrador shed light on the motivations, experiences, challenges, and outcomes that community–university research partnerships can foster, and demonstrate that archaeology has the potential to make valuable local contributions.
