[Sasnet] funding opportunities for arch/geo

[Ellery Frahm]

Colleagues,

My web page on grants, fellowships, and other funding opportunities  
for students in geoarchaeology and archaeological geology is back on- 
line.  It was initially intended as a resource for students in the  
Archaeological Geology Division of the Geological Society of America;  
however, it is available to everyone interested in archaeological- 
geological research.

The site's new address is:

http://web.mac.com/elleryfrahm/iWeb/Geoarch/

Soon a link will be posted from the Archaeological Geology Division  
page:

http://rock.geosociety.org/arch/

This new site is much improved over the old one from a few years  
ago.  It has a better interface, an archive, a search function, RSS,  
and the ability to leave comments for each post (so that additions,  
corrections, and additional material could be added by site  
visitors).  Hopefully visitors will find these new features useful.

Please help to keep this list updated.  If your institution has a  
funding opportunity for grad students in geoarchaeology or  
archaeological geology, please contact me so that I can add it here.   
Also, if you have heard of such an opportunity and you do not see if  
listed, please send it to me.  Thanks in advance to all those who  
contribute!

Best,
Ellery

"The future is not only on the edges of a discipline, but where two  
edges touch, and that is where the excitement is. And two edges of  
our pursuit of truth are about to touch..."

--Robert Ballard

"... every archaeological problem starts as a problem in  
geoarchaeology."

--Colin Renfrew

"Within some archaeological artefacts there is a record to which an  
archaeologist is blind but which a physicist can hope to read...  
[but] a physicist is not a machine that, when fed with material,  
regurgitates an archaeological answer acceptable without qualification."

--Martin Aitken
