Re: How frequently is your job represented in media or fandom

I suppose fairly frequently, but in outlandish, wildly inaccurate forms: Indiana Jones, Laura Croft, Relic Hunter, dude from Stargate, etc. I never find treasure or aliens and very rarely fight Nazis.

Okay, fine. I never fight Nazis.

Actual archaeology is intellectually fascinating (and field work is great exercise) but it's very, very boring to watch if you can't participate. THRILL AS THEY STRAIGHTEN THE WALLS OF THEIR EXCAVATION UNIT! GASP AS THEY COUNT THE NUMBER OF DEER BONE FRAGMENTS THAT CAME OUT OF THIS LEVEL. Also, the kind of archaeology I do - private sector working almost exclusively for government contracts and usually doing more survey than actual excavation - is pretty much never represented.
