What this kind of job involves

Federal archaeology jobs are with agencies such as the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Forest Service, US Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Defense. These agencies manage large amounts of land and must follow laws such as Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, so they employ their own archaeologists.
