This federal Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Office of Digital Humanities (CFDA 45.169) supports a $349,812 research project titled "The Archaeology of Indigenous Agricultural Landscapes: Digital Approaches to Documentation, Mapping, and Interpretation". The project, led by Dartmouth College, will employ advanced digital remote sensing techniques including drone-based LiDAR, thermography, and infrared imaging, along with terrestrial geophysics, to rapidly document and analyze ancient agricultural landscape features across sites in New Mexico, Wisconsin, Hawaii, and New England. This non-invasive approach aims to facilitate the discovery, preservation, and interpretation of these significant archaeological remains, providing new insights into indigenous land use practices while supporting conservation efforts. The 3-year project period runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027.
