Synopsis

The goal is to find, study, protect, and manage archaeological resources in Lincoln County, Nevada. All work should follow U.S. Department of the Interior priorities and support Eastern Nevada’s conservation and development goals. Project ObjectivesEach project should meet one or more of these objectives: Protect archaeological sites where they are found. Care for archaeological collections and records. Use and share research results in clear ways. Increase public outreach and involvement in archeology. Balance current land use with future needs by: Protecting archaeological resources for the future. Restoring damaged watersheds to safeguard sites. Support science and culture by managing archaeological resources responsibly. Lincoln County Archeology Initiative projects must follow the rules in the Lincoln County Land Act, which uses the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (Public Law 96-95) definition of archaeological resources. This means that only proposals about things at least 100 years old can get funding. Anything newer than that will not be funded.
