The David Hudnell Fund for Archaeological Research and Field School was established in 1997. It was created to honor the memory of David Hudnell, an Ohio University graduate in anthropology and archaeology who worked with the Ohio University archaeological field schools from 1986 until his premature passing in 1996. Hudnell had a great love of archaeology and Native American culture, and he was instrumental in helping establish the strong reputation of the Ohio University Field School.
The Hudnell Fund supports the operation of the Ohio Archaeological Field School and general student-based research in Archaeology. All money is focused on providing students with unique experiential learning experiences in Ohio and beyond. Funds are used to conduct fieldwork, purchase field equipment, conduct laboratory analysis, and provide stipends to students to allow them to research and learn methods in archaeology. Faculty and students work on sites ranging from the oldest sites in North America to historic settlements in Ohio.
Thank you for your kind contribution to support archaeology in Southeastern Ohio.
