American Philosophical Society Phillips Fund (Native American Studies)

This fund provides grants for research in Native American linguistics, ethnohistory, and the history of studies of Native Americans, in the continental United States and Canada.

The grants are intended for such costs as travel, audio and video recordings, and consultants’ fees. Grants are not made for projects in archaeology, ethnography, or psycholinguistics; for the purchase of permanent equipment; or for the preparation of pedagogical materials.

The committee distinguishes ethnohistory from contemporary ethnography as the study of cultures and cultural change through time.
