Project Archaeology State Program Highlights: Celebrating 25 Years
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 80th Annual Meeting, San Francisco, CA (2015)
Project Archaeology started 25 years ago at the Bureau of Land Management in Utah. Since then, it has grown with established programs in 36 states. This poster session celebrates the diversity, complexity, and partnerships of Project Archaeology with submissions from a selection of state programs, including Florida, Colorado, Oklahoma, Iowa and Montana. Some state programs are 25 years old and have gone through a generation of changes. Some are very new and bring vital energy that feeds this synergetic network. In addition to geographic diversity, the Project Archaeology products developed by each state vary as the educational goals and archaeological resources differ. Come meet the people representing Project Archaeology in your state and learn how to get involved.
