Established in 1906, The Antiquities Act was the first law to establish that archaeological sites on public lands are important public resources. This website was designed to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Act, and should be considered rather essential for any persons interested in such matters. After browsing a basic overview of the Act’s primary provisions, visitors should consider the “Monument Profiles” section. Within this well-thought out section, visitors can learn about such important sites as Devils Tower National Monument, Chaco Canyon, as well as a number of other locations. Another nice way to learn about these sites is to peruse the interactive maps offered in the “Maps, Facts & Figures” area. Finally, the site also contains complete details on the various events that will take place at these different sites over the coming year.
