About project
The project Digital US Southwest: Interactive Platform of Native American and Euro-American Cultural Interactions will consist of creating an interactive online platform that will bring together and popularize some aspects of archaeology and history of American Indian cultures from the pre-Hispanic and historic US Southwest and Euro-American settlers. It will be provided with focus on the digital technologies, including digital photography (also enhanced), videos, virtual reconstructions and 3D visualizations. Great emphasis will be placed on the education, dialogue and cooperation of scientists (archaeologists, anthropologists) with Native Americans.
The platform presents to audiences, especially young generation in Poland and Europe, the richness and diversity of Indigenous and Euro-American culture by promoting cultural dialogue and person-to-person contacts in US-Polish relations (e.g. Polish archaeological research conducted in Colorado in cooperation with American institutions). The Project is financed by from U.S. Department of State–Federal Assistance/ U.S. Embassy and Consulate in Poland Grant Application.
