Skill – an introduction Nada Khreisheh

What is Skill? Photos: Whitlock 2011

What is Skill? 1: A) the ability to use one's knowledge effectively and readily in execution or performance B) dexterity or coordination especially in the execution of learned physical tasks 2: a learned power of doing something competently : a developed aptitude or ability (Merriam-Webster 2012)

Types of Skill Skill can be divided into 2 separate areas of understanding and ability: Connaissance (Knowledge). Savoir-faire (Know-how). Identified by Pelegrin in relation to flintknapping (1990). Connaissance – understanding of how a task should be performed, mental image of intended object, understanding of technical stages that must be performed. Savoir-faire – physical ability to carry out a task, possession of necessary motor skills and ability to adapt these as needed.

Skill Aquisition Learning: Observation Emulation Teaching Practice

Skill Acquisition Teaching: Archaeological evidence: Observation Demonstration Scaffolding Archaeological evidence: Spatial evidence Artifactual evidence

Skill Acquisition Aptitude/natural abilities: Motor skills Spatial abilities Intelligence Age Sex Size/weight/strength

Why is this important for archaeologists? Interpreting behaviour Understanding archaeological remains. Identifying children. Understanding social structure. Identifying craft specialisation.

Why is this important for experimental archaeologists? Craft skills Understanding technology from artefacts Time factors Learning/teaching methods Project Development – identifying highly skilled craftspeople

Conclusion Skill is an important concept for archaeologists. Studying it can help us get a better understanding of human behaviour from archaeological remains. It is a key issue for experimental archaeologists demonstrating craft skills and planning experimental projects.
