Editor's Notes: On “reality archaeology”

George P. Nicholas

Of course it should have been expected. With the popularity of the Survivor series and other “reality” television shows, sooner or later archaeology was due for some attention by television producers. In Extreme Archaeology (Channel 4 Productions, UK, 2004)1, now making the rounds on North American airwaves, a trio of vivacious female archaeologists, Katie Hirst, Dr. Alice Roberts, and Meg Watters—rappel, dive, and spelunk themselves into remote locations in search of archaeological knowledge. The team leader, Dr. Mark Davies, is a volcanologist with experience in leading missions into dangerous terrain; the support team consists of experts in rock climbing, caving, diving and similar technical skills. The parallels to the Charlie’s Angels television series and movie franchise are unavoidable, and perhaps even intentional.
