ANT 3163 - Mesoamerican Archaeology

Founded in 1902, the American Anthropological Association (AAA) is the world's largest association for professional anthropologists, with more than 10,000 members from all four fields of anthropology: cultural anthropology, biological/physical anthropology, archaeology, and linguistic anthropology.

BEARC was established as a scholarly retreat, library and meeting space. Home to research on Maya writing, the Ancient America monograph series, and Richard Diehl's Mexican archaeology blog.

FAMSI (Foundation for Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies) was created in 1993 to foster increased understanding of ancient Mesoamerican cultures. The Foundation aims to assist and promote qualified scholars who might otherwise be unable to undertake or complete their programs of research and synthesis. Projects in the following disciplines are urged to apply: anthropology, archaeology, art history, epigraphy, ethnography, ethnohistory, linguistics, and related fields.
