BOARD OF SPONSORS

In order to establish the bona fides of the Fund, it was

decided to enlist a group of eminent anthropologists to serve

as sponsors of the Fund. The main function of the Board of

Sponsors is to give intellectual support to the goals of the

Fund in order to demonstrate the importance of this work.

Also, if members of the Board know of individuals or

foundations that might be interested in giving support to this

work, we would appreciate hearing from them. We are

constantly interested in enlarging this Board of Sponsors and

would welcome hearing from anyone who would be interested in

lending their support. We would like to express our deep

appreciation and thanks to all the sponsors who have given

their support to this project.
