You are invited to participate in the Pimu Catalina Island Archaeology 
Field
School, a new and innovative course that uses cutting edge scientific 
tools in
a collaborative research project with Tongva/Gabrielino tribal members, the
Santa Catalina Island Conservancy and the Cotsen Institute of 
Archaeology at
UCLA.

Beginning June 22, 2008 and ending July 25, 2008, the field school is 
especially
concerned with giving Native American community members and tribal cultural
resource personnel a foundation in archaeological methods, theories and 
laws
while immersing them in the 9,000 years of cultural history of the
Tongva/Gabrielino nation. It is hoped each participant will take this 
knowledge
back to their community in order to efficiently and effectively respond 
to and
engage in archaeological research.

Partial scholarships are available. See
http://www.archaeology.ucla.edu/pdf/CatalinaFieldSchoolScholarshipFlyer.pdf 
for
more information and application materials.
