Eligible projects include Ă‚Âż research that significantly adds to knowledge and understanding of the humanities; Ă‚Âż conferences on topics of major importance in the humanities that will benefit scholarly research; Ă‚Âż archaeological projects that include the interpretation and communication of results (projects may encompass excavation, materials analysis, laboratory work, field reports, and preparation of interpretive monographs); and Ă‚Âż research that uses the knowledge and perspectives of the humanities and historical or philosophical methods to enhance understanding of science, technology, medicine, and the social sciences.
