‘Archeology on Ice: Interior Alaska, USA’

Alpine glaciers and ice fields in the Alaska Range, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Kluane / Wrangell-St. Elias / Glacier Bay / Tatshenshini-Alsek, have yielded significant archaeological discoveries, including preserved artifacts from early human activity. The exhibit 'Archeology on Ice' showcases these findings at the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitor Center in Fairbanks, Alaska, a strategic location near North America's earliest archaeological sites. The research approach involves systematic exploration of ice patches and glaciers, revealing insights into past human behavior and environmental interactions. This exhibit serves as an educational platform to share these discoveries with both academic and general audiences.
