An active intellectual space for archaeological inquiry and exchange

Research

The Institute offers an active intellectual space for archaeological inquiry and exchange through regular programming that includes a colloquium series, podcast series, conferences, and visiting scholars. It also harnesses the collective intellectual, technical, and collections resources of a number of existing units of archaeology-related activity at Cornell into an integrated hub of research, training, and dissemination.
