Alaska Archaeology Month

April is Alaska Archaeology Month! It is a time to reflect on Alaska’s rich and exceptionally long-lived cultural traditions that we understand, in part, through archaeological research. It’s also an opportunity to raise awareness about preservation of the archaeological record, a non-renewable resource relentlessly subjected to a range of threats. Learn more about Alaska’s past at a series of events–public talks, exhibits, hands-on activities–happening across the state. And watch for the latest installment of the Alaska Archaeology Month poster coming to to schools schools, libraries, and museums throughout Alaska.
