*EXARC is proud to announce a fellowship offer together with America’s largest outdoor living history <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#Living_history> museum <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#Museum>, Colonial Williamsburg.* The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation – EXARC Fellowship is intended to advance the investigation and interpretation <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#Interpretation> of archaeological and experimental archaeological heritage by supporting research and scholarship through a partnership between EXARC, the international organization of Archaeological Open-Air Museums <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#archaeological_open-air_museums> (AOAM) and Experimental Archaeology <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#Experimental_archaeology>, and the Colonial Williamsburg, America’s largest outdoor living history museum. This fellowship will fund one month of scholarship in residence at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. Successful proposals will demonstrate potential to advance the understanding and practice of reconstructive and experimental archaeology and its interpretation through structured experimentation to recreate material culture, technology <http://exarc.net/lexicon/6#Technology>, or life-ways of the past. Applicants need experience in ancient technology, experimental archaeology or interpretation, applicable to 18th century colonial American times. This can be of American, European or other origin. Fellows are expected to be in continuous residence at Colonial Williamsburg and to actively participate in the intellectual life of the Foundation's research, educational, and interpretive campus. Fellowships carry a stipend of $2,500 per month and are available to researchers with strong qualifications. *Applications are due May 19, 2017 and decisions will be announced by June 6, 2017.
