Harvard University (Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard University)

The Peabody Museum will conserve, rehouse, and improve storage of nearly 4,000 historic maps, architectural drawings, archaeological site plans, and related anthropological fieldwork documents dating as early as the 1840s. Highlights of the collection include documentation of the fieldwork on the Hopewell culture sites of the Ohio, archives of the Awatovi Ruins excavation of the 1930s, and maps and documents from Chan Chan, a UNESCO World Heritage site. New storage will allow the museum to share these resources with researchers and students alike.
