THE WESTERN SAHARA PROJECT IS LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS FOR THE NOVEMBER 2010 FIELD SEASON:

Further details here.

THE PROJECT

The Western Sahara Project aims to enhance our understanding of the human past in Western Sahara through combined archaeological and environmental research. The project aims to develop cultural and environmental chronologies, and to understand how past climatic and environmental changes affected human populations throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene periods, with an emphasis on the transition from humid to arid conditions that occurred in the Middle Holocene, some 5000 years ago.

More details are available on the Project website.
