The obstacles to an inclusive archaeological training
Abstract
In Spain, the archaeological instruction is carried out, mainly, at universities, either in the classrooms or at excavations. If the word inclusive is added, we are talking about training archaeologists with some sort of disability.
This article reflects on the elements which take part in the archaeological training of students with disabilities at present. It deals with the current legislation on equality, and the right to academic training. It also considers the university as the institution which connects the diversity, to detect and strengthen the different talents that society needs.
The elements which take part in the practical archaeological training, and its teaching by the faculty are considered. Finally, the present paper reflects on the possible obstacles that the academic archaeological tradition itself introduces in the mentioned training.
