This $500,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) will support a project by the California State University Long Beach Research Foundation to expand training opportunities for underrepresented students in geoarchaeology. The project will combine a traditional archaeological field school with laboratory analysis of human-environmental dynamics using techniques like geochemical and geophysical analysis. Students will engage in fieldwork, collect and analyze data, and present their research findings at regional or national conferences. This project aims to remove economic barriers that limit participation in these fields and develop critical skills for young archaeologists. No sub-awards are planned under this award, which has an anticipated completion date of December 31, 2027.
