Abstract

Archaeological expedition as a cultural phenomenon can be analyzed not only through the concept of “subculture” regarding its members, but also through the mechanism of its organization and functioning as a set of corporate (organizational) culture attributes. The use of this term reveals new possibilities for the analysis of this phenomenon functioning as a way to obtain new scientific information by the field research methods as a total of interested people who promote these researches. Expedition, in this respect, has a unique mixture of specific behavior and value norms, traditions and customs, patterns of everyday life in all their diversity and participants’ ways of thinking that are often intentionally formed by the expedition leaders to ensure achievement of the field work objectives. Use and perception of this methodological device can potentially allow forming the corporate culture of those expeditions where it has not been formed yet
