Tomasin Playford obtained a Four Year Specialist Bachelor of Arts degree from Brandon University in 1996 and continued her education at the University of Saskatchewan where the focus for her master’s degree was in zooarchaeology. The summer of 2003 marked her tenth anniversary of archaeological field work, most of which has been in southern Manitoba. She has worked at a number of archaeological sites either as a crew member or as site supervisor. Over the past few years, Tomasin has been teaching several archaeology courses at Brandon University and the University of Saskatchewan. In addition to field work, the SCAPE project has made it possible for her to analyze the faunal assemblages from several sites in southern Manitoba in order to establish subsistence strategies. During the summer of 2003, Tomasin instructed the Brandon University Archaeological Field School at the sites in the Tiger Hills, Manitoba. Her future plans are to enroll in the Natural Resource Institute at the University of Manitoba for a PhD, which will investigate the usefulness of foetal bison remains in establishing site seasonality.
