CROWTHER-BEYNON FUND

(See Ordinances of the University of Cambridge 2014 p.811)

Introductory Notes

________________________________________________________________________

The Crowther-Beynon Fund is an endowment for the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology for the improvement of its collections. The Museum Committee makes annual grants both for internal projects and to researchers outside the Museum. Grants from the Fund have been particularly useful for projects carried out by research students in archaeology and anthropology.

Types of Project

Projects may be related to material already in the Museum, or can involve acquiring new material for the Museum's collections. Projects related to existing collections should enhance and consolidate knowledge of a selected group of artefacts through research and / or documentation. Grants are also available to improve the care and condition of artefacts, and to facilitate access to the Museum's collections, e.g. through exhibition or publication.

Scale of Grants

External awards have typically been in the region of �400 - �1200.

Liaison with Museum Curators

It is essential to consult curatorial staff at the Museum prior to submitting an application so that the relevance of a project to the Museum's collections can be properly assessed.

Present curatorial responsibilities are as follows:

Professor Nicholas Thomas (Director): Historical Anthropology and the Pacific

Mark Elliott (Senior Curator): Anthropology (Asia, Africa and Europe)
Anita Herle (Senior Curator): Anthropology (Americas and Oceania) and Photographic ������������� Collections

Jody Joy (Senior Curator): European Archaeology
Chris Wingfield (Senior Curator): World Archaeology

Application Procedure

Applications should be made on the enclosed form. The closing date is 15 April each year. Successful applicants are notified by mid-June, and grants are paid from 1 August in the same year.

Referee

A supporting letter is required from one referee. It need be no longer than 200 words. If you are currently a graduate student, your supervisor may be best placed to act as your referee. It is your responsibility to ask your referee to send the reference directly to the Secretary of the Museum Committee by the closing date of 15 April.

Permission, Legality, Ethics

If the material you plan to collect is to be imported from overseas, you need to be sure that you can properly collect the material there and convey it to Cambridge. Many countries restrict or prohibit the export of archaeological materials and certain forms of cultural property. There are also restrictions on the international trade in artefacts made from parts of endangered plant and animal species. You need to make sure that it is both lawful and culturally appropriate to remove the material from its original locality. It is your responsibility to secure the necessary permissions and export permits.

Budget

If the project involves collecting new material for the Museum, 10% of any grant awarded will be withheld to cover the processing and cataloguing expenses. This sum should therefore be added onto the projected costs laid out in your application. Your budget should also take into account the likely cost of transporting your collection to Cambridge.

Reports

A report on the project together with a brief financial statement should be submitted to the Secretary of the Museum Committee by 31 December of the year following that in which the grant is received. If a project is to continue beyond this date, a preliminary report should be submitted, with a final report and financial statement upon completion. Reports on collections made for the Museum should provide as much information as possible on the objects collected, the circumstances in which they were acquired, and, where appropriate, the relevance to the collector's fieldwork. Please check with the consulting curator for further details.
