August 9, 2018
Advance planners got the jump on promoting IAD 2018 this year and garnered some publicity for their organizations on our website along the way. Some 120 groups were listed on our Collaborating Organizations page during May and June! Accessing these CO links on our page brings archaeological enthusiasts to the homepages of organizations that value archaeology and promise to host and/or provide information about the topic during the month of October, particularly on Saturday October 20th, IAD’s date for this year.
Participating organizations include many returning collaborators as well as a few new ones, and range from community libraries, local historical commissions, and regional archaeology associations, to universities, professional journals, museums, and national parks. COs come from all over the US and several other countries including the Czech Republic, Spain, Italy, Slovakia, Georgia, Russia, and Myanmar, to name a few.
