This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $276,830.00 to the University of Arizona to conduct collaborative research on precisely dating archaeological evidence of population history and the evolution of prehistoric social institutions. The project aims to revise the timeline for population changes and monumental construction in a specific region by redating wood and charcoal samples...
This $268,585 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075) supports long-term research examining human-environment interactions along the Pacific Coast. The research team from the University of Nevada, Reno will conduct archaeological surveys and excavations, radiocarbon dating, and stable isotope analysis of marine shells and fish remains to develop a chronology of coastal occupation and paleoenvironmental change over...
This $266,706 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports archaeological and paleoenvironmental research to study the role of coastal habitats in the survival of early humans. The research team at the University of Louisville will generate new empirical data in the form of stone artifacts, paleoenvironmental records, and geochronological data to understand the range of habitats exploited by...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant, valued at $269,998, supports research to reconstruct the lifeways of North America's first peoples during the Pleistocene-Holocene Transition (PHT) period. Specifically, the project examines a 12,000-9,000 year old mortuary site used by the ancestors of the Muwekma Ohlone Indian Tribe in the San Francisco Bay Area. The research employs a range of biological and biogeochemical analyses,...
This Project Grant award of $236,131 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a comprehensive archaeological study of early human settlements in rural settings. The research, conducted by Emory University, aims to examine the relationship between imperial settlement policies and local community dynamics, with a focus on agricultural organization, production, and the interaction between rural communities and the...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $295,743 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF-SUNY) to investigate the long-term cultural impacts of colonization on indigenous Maya communities in the Yucatan region. The research project compares how ordinary Maya households and communities responded to the drastic social...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $108,757, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to San Diego State University Foundation. The award, effective August 15, 2024 through July 31, 2026, supports a collaborative research project that investigates changes in prehistoric human foraging, mobility patterns, and population dynamics in response to environmental change during the later Pleistocene. The research...
This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $105,569 to the University of Connecticut to conduct research on human behavior within the context of long-term environmental change during the last glacial period from approximately 71,000 to 21,000 years ago. The research will combine high-resolution paleoclimate and zooarchaeological data from...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $321,936 to Texas A&M University to investigate human adaptation and resilience in high-altitude archaeological sites. The project aims to determine how small-scale foraging societies persisted in challenging environments over thousands of years by analyzing detailed environmental and behavioral data from multiple sites. In addition to scholarly...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $191,700 to Arizona State University (ASU) to investigate changes in prehistoric human foraging, mobility patterns, and population dynamics in response to environmental change during the later Pleistocene. The research aims to provide broader context to occupations in a coastal region by comparing new archaeological data analyses to detailed models of the...
