About AAHS

AAHS was founded in 1916. It is a nonprofit, educational organization affiliated with the Arizona State Museum.

The Society's objectives are:

  • to encourage scholarly pursuits in the history and anthropology of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico;
  • to encourage the preservation of archaeological and historical sites;
  • to encourage the scientific and legal gathering of cultural information and materials;
  • to publish the results of archaeological, historical and ethnographic investigations;
  • to aid in the functions and programs of the Arizona State Museum;
  • to provide educational opportunities through lectures, field trips,and other activities.

AAHS provides a forum for professionals in archaeology and related fields as well as the general public to share their common interests and enthusiasm for the Southwest's rich cultural history. Activities, announced monthly in the newsletter, Glyphs, provide educational and social opportunities to explore these interests. The Society's quarterly journal, Kiva, publishes original research in southwestern anthropology and history, and is an internationally recognized professional journal.
