The Dienje Kenyon Fellowship
A fellowship in honor of the late Dienje M. E. Kenyon is offered through
the Society for American Archaeology to support the research of women
archaeologists in the early stages of their graduate training. The
award, of $500, will be made to a student pursuing research in
Zooarchaeology, which was Kenyon's specialty. To qualify for the award,
applicants must be enrolled in a graduate degree program focusing on
Archaeology with the intention of receiving either the M.A. or Ph.D. on
a topic related to Zooarchaeology, and must be in the first two years of
graduate studies. Applications are to consist of
1. a statement of proposed research related to Zooarchaeology, toward
the conduct of which the award would be applied, of no more than 1500
words, including a brief statement indicating how the award would be
spent in support of that research;
2. a curriculum vitae; and
3. two letters of support from individuals familiar with the applicant's
work and research potential. One of these letters must be from the
student's primary advisor, and must indicate the year in which the
applicant began graduate studies. Strong preference will be given to
students working with faculty members with zooarchaeological expertise.
Applications, preferably sent via email as an attachment in Microsoft
Word, are due no later than January 7, 2005, and are to be sent to Heidi
Katz, Thinking Strings, P.O. Box 537, South Orange, NJ 07079,
