Wessen’s 50+ years of archaeological fieldwork has taken him all over western North America with most of his experience in the coastal and lowland forest settings of western Washington. Wessen has worked with or conducted 10 large-scale excavation projects, 96 small-scale site testing and evaluation projects, and more than 500 archaeological site survey projects. For the whole month of October, visit our Vimeo page to enjoy three of Wessen’s lectures drawing from his fieldwork in western Washington.
