[Herbert C. Kraft et al. (1994)] To date, 205 students have been enrolled in archaeology field schools which have worked at the Eaton Site. A number of these individuals have gone on to become professional archaeologists. The hard work, dedication, and camaraderie of all these students is gratefully acknowledged. Members of the Houghton Chapter, summer school students from West Seneca schools, Upward Bound high school students, and countless other volunteers have all contributed to the Eaton Site excavations. Over the years, I have been fortunate to work with a number of field assistants, including Tim Barker, Dr. Kim Bartolotta, Bill Bern, John Floyd, Barbara Hays, Nancy Herter, Malinda Hutinett, Hugh Jarvis, Andre Lam, Neil O'Donnell, Dr. Fran Picken, Carolyn Pierce, Dr. Mark Rosenzweig, Dave Sadow, Lisa Spaulding, and Kathy Stark. Dr. Margaret Nelson of the SUNY/Buffalo Anthropology Department served as Associate Director of the SUNY/Buffalo-Buffalo State College field school at Eaton in 1984. Over the years, many volunteers have shared their time and expertise in the laboratory. Kathryn Guest has spent countless hours attempting to reconstruct ceramic vessels from the site. Jack Holland has regularly visited the excavations over the years and given lectures, demonstrations, and advice on stone-tool manufacture and analysis. He has also donated a comparative lithic collection to the Anthropology Department at Buffalo State College.
