From Vee Ring 4 Star Award for Web Excellence - Anthropology: "An extraordinarily comprehensive index that is annotated to serve a worldwide audience. After scouring the net and wearing out one search engine after the other, stop and rest your eyes. The authors of this presentation have collected, sorted, annotated and linked what you might have been searching for those many hours. If your research requirements include Europe, this is the place to start, not end. Get it either thematic or by country. And it gets better with each revision." From Dr. Matrix: "Archaeological Resource Guide for Europe" is being recognized with the Dr. Matrix Award for Science Excellence from "Dr. Matrix' Weird Web World of Science." "Archaeological Resource Guide for Europe" is also being honored with prominent display as a select site at http://www.nr.infi.net/~drmatrix/award.htm with the category: Human Studies. Sites receiving this award are distinguished by the quality of their content alone. A flashy Web site will not receive this award if its content lacks interest and integrity. A simple Web site will receive this award if it serves the interests of discovery, mental enrichment and thoughtful enjoyment. This award doesn't go to "cool" sites. It goes to the great sites. It's not a daily or weekly award, but an award based on presence, here and now. It is given in gratitude, with no other request but that you keep doing what you're doing. A heart-felt thank you for enriching the time we spend on the World-Wide Web. - Dr. Matrix - (drmatrix@aol.com) From the New Scientist: Planet Science is the New Scientist Web guide to science on the Internet. Sites especially worth visiting are listed in a special Hot Spots section. The Archaeological Resource Guide for Europe is listed there with the following comment: - As its name suggests, this set of links indexes Web sites, discussion groups, usenet newsgroups and other resources from or about Europe. It is well-organised and doesn't just put its links into a long list - it annotates most mentions with descriptive comments. From Ron McCoy (mccoyron@esumail.emporia.edu): I recently came across your Fringe Archaeology web page. Occasionally, I teach a graduate-level course on "Whodunit: Mystery and Evidence in History." Your page will be a must-read for students the next time the course is offered. Thanks. From Simon James, author of the Ancient Celts pages: By the way, love ARGE, use it all the time, well done! Cheers, Simon. From Archaeology Sites at the University of Tasmania: "A great place to look first. Fast and well-presented". From the StonePages team: "Clear and extensive guide" From the University of Arizona Library: "Comprehensive resource with thematic and country indexes" The Ancient World Web resource guide at the University of Virginia gives ARGE special mention: This is an excellent assortment of sites, many of them off the "beaten path" - from information on Croatian museums to Polish sites, this is simply fabulous. From the NPS/NCPTT/ICOMOS Internet Resources Guide: [ARGE], hosted by the University of Birmingham, contains a rich collection of links relating to European archaeological investigations. It is planned as the first step in a European Archaeological Heritage Web (EAHW). From the Department of Anthropology, University of New Mexico Excellent source for Old World information and links!
