The Belize Valley Archaeological Reconnaissance Project will conduct
archaeological research within various caves in Belize in the summer of 1998.
The project will focus on interpreting the role of caves in the culture of the
ancient Maya. Dr. Jaime Awe of the University of New Hampshire will direct the
archaeological investigations, which will include extensive exploration of cave
sites, mapping of rooms and artefacts, typing of pottery, artefact tabulation,
data recording, and excavation. Volunteers must be in excellent physical
condition and at least 18 years of age. There is a fee. For applications and
