The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded a $350,000 Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Office of Digital Humanities program (CFDA 45.169) to Archaeology Southwest, a nonprofit organization, to transform the CyberSW web-based gateway. The project aims to 1) expand the digital indigenous field guide to include indigenous cultural and language content related to plant and animal "cultural keystone species" as identified by tribal partners, and 2) redesign the CyberSW platform to improve usability and accessibility, including on mobile devices. The award period is from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2027. This grant supports Archaeology Southwest's efforts to enhance the CyberSW platform to better meet the interests and needs of indigenous communities, as well as engage wider audiences of lifelong learners in the archaeology of the Southwest United States and Northwestern Mexico.
