About this scholarship

The Ellen and Charles Steinmetz Endowment for Archaeology supports the use of technology in archaeological research by providing grants to archaeological projects that make innovative use of technological tools and methods. Normally, such projects will have a fieldwork element. However, research conducted in a laboratory setting that employs technology may also be eligible for a grant. Applicants must be AIA members at the graduate student or professional level at the time of application, with a PhD in archaeology or a related field, and are expected to have an academic affiliation. While all are encouraged to apply, priority will be given to new projects proposed by archaeologists at an early stage in their careers (within 8 years of the receipt of the PhD). Projects may concern any location in the world and any time period, but must be designed to address important questions about the human past specifically through technological means. "Technology" should be understood broadly to include not only digital tools and approaches, but also those developed in engineering, chemistry, biology, physics, etc. If the project requires a permit, applicants should also be the primary permit holders; if the applicant is not the primary permit holder, the application should be accompanied by a letter of support from the primary permit holder. Applicants must submit a budget using the provided budget template which should be converted to PDF before submission. Please visit the grant's website or contact the Archaeological Institute of America for more information.
