Help Wanted: Contributing Writer for Archaeology

By , About.com GuideDecember 6, 2009

Follow me on:

About.com is looking for a professional writer with the background and experience in archaeology and history to cover the sub-topic of Pre-Columbian history in the Americas for my website, Archaeology @ About.com.

An ideal candidate would be an archaeologist, history professor/teacher, or historian who can write knowledgeably for a broad audience on topics related to the Pre-Columbian history.

The contributing writer needs to be capable of expressing complicated concepts and history in simple, practical language, and write for a non-academic audience. Candidates should be able to convey what makes this time period interesting, and should have a lively and engaging writing style. Candidates should have previously published writing--either online or in print--and should be able to secure, with rights to publish, high quality photos of historic sites.

Finally, the successful candidate should be willing and able to work in a collaborative environment with an editor and the current Archaeology Guide.
