The Society for American Archaeology (SAA) aims to empower its members to understand humanity’s past through ethically-based scientific and humanistic investigation. Its mission is to promote the preservation of archaeological resources and cultural heritage through support of legislation and education, create collaboration between the profession and descendant communities, and assist in the professional growth of its members. SAA strives to champion archaeologists in their efforts to advance knowledge and protect the past for society, aiming to build a more ethical, just, and equitable future for the profession.
The H. and T. King Grant for Archaeology of the Ancient Americas by the SAA supports archaeological projects throughout Latin America, focusing on the indigenous cultures of Mesoamerica, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. It welcomes proposals for a variety of projects, including field research, analysis of excavation data, and laboratory work, from both early career and senior scholars. The grant aims to award proposals that promise significant contributions to the field, offering up to $60,000 annually, divided among selected projects to enhance research potential and support the publication of findings.
