This project provides funding for the completion of the final report of a long-term archaeological project at Wales, Alaska, and will support two students as they assist in preparing the data and contents of the monograph for submission for publication, and ultimate curation of the cultural materials in the collection. The Wales project represents almost two decades of research on an important Alaskan site that represents a complexity of social group interaction in the region that both complements and complicates previous understandings of Bering Strait prehistory. In addition, the project will engage the Wales community in the preparation of the monograph, including traditional community knowledge (written by members of the Wales community) about the archaeological sites investigated. The completion of this project will see not only the publication of results but the return of the collections from this project to public curation and, eventually, the return of part of this collection to the Seward Peninsula/Bering Strait region where it can become a focus for local community awareness and education as well as a source of interpretation for non-indigenous residents and visitors to the area.

该项目为完成阿拉斯加威尔士长期考古项目的最终报告提供资金，并将支持两名学生协助准备提交出版的专题论文的数据和内容，并最终管理收集的文化材料。威尔士项目代表了对一个重要的阿拉斯加遗址近二十年的研究，它代表了该地区社会群体互动的复杂性，既补充又使之前对白令海峡史前的理解复杂化。此外，该项目将使威尔士社区参与编写专著，包括关于所调查考古遗址的传统社区知识（由威尔士社区成员撰写）。该项目完成后，不仅会公布结果，还会将该项目的藏品归还给公共策展，最终，部分藏品将归还给苏厄德半岛/白令海峡地区，在那里它可以成为当地社区意识和教育的焦点，同时也可以成为该地区非土著居民和游客的解释来源。
