Thanks for that, Darren. I found it particularly interesting because I
started my own archaeological career in the early 80s in a similar way. Here
in the UK the Manpower Services Commission set up job creation schemes for
the long-term unemployed. Not that I am drawing comparisons between
America's Great Depression and Thatcherite Britain!

Regards, Kieron

I was browsing through a PDF of photos of "New Deal" WPA activities, when on
page 33 I found "Archeological digs employed WPA labor, including this
excavation at the site of the Odessa meteor crater in Ector County, Texas."
