The San Diego Society is one of nearly 100 local chapters of the Archaeological Institute of America. The institute and its members are dedicated to the recovery, care, study and publication of archaeological material and the conservation and preservation of archaeological sites world wide. A major activity of the San Diego Society is its program of periodic lecture meetings featuring many of the world’s leading archaeologists. These scholars present timely topics on their own excavations and research. Visitors are always welcome and most lecture programs are free and open to the public.

Their quarterly publication, THE GLYPH—available here in an abbreviated online edition—offers archaeological news, both local and worldwide. The information is timely, educational, and often fun. Recent articles include “Answering the Question of Slavery in Ancient Egypt,”“The .Archaeology of Canada’s Arctic,”“California’s Lost Spanish Settlement at Bodega Bay,”“Ramses II in Jordan,” and “Redating the Sphinx: The Voice of Reason.” The web page also gives you guidelines for would-be authors who would like to contribute to THE GLYPH, information on how to contact the editorial staff, and related links.
