Description
The Stevan B. Dana Project Grants provide annual support to ASOR-affiliated archaeological field projects, with a particular focus on assisting newer and smaller projects or funding discrete components of larger efforts. Established in 2021, the grant aims to foster innovative archaeological research by enabling projects to purchase equipment, launch smaller initiatives, or undertake off-season research and analysis. The program is designed to offer modest but impactful financial support, helping affiliated projects advance their objectives and contribute to the broader field of archaeology.
