NEH Archaeology Grants through the Archaeological Institute of America
A small grants program for humanistic archaeological research and writing that supports survey, excavation, and publication.
The Archaeological Institute of America (AIA) is requesting a grant of $500,000 (plus
administrative costs) for two years to establish a program that provides small grants to
individuals conducting archaeological research around the world. The grants will focus on
providing support for a larger number of fieldwork projects that might be thought of as “lean and
mean” – i.e., not requiring vast funding outlays to return important results. Just as significantly,
these grants will also support post-fieldwork research and publication efforts that are currently
underfunded, yet critical to providing a more complete understanding of the communities being
studied. The current lack of funding for post-fieldwork efforts often results in long gaps of time
between the completion of the project and the dissemination of final reports and publications.
