I have been contacted recently by many students who wanted to cite this website.  This made me think of all the research papers that I had written and where they have ended up (trash).  A lot of hard work goes into you research and there should be a place that you can share it and teach others.  I wanted to start a section where you can post you research.  There are many people who have never studied archaeology or anthropology and could expand their knowledge by sharing in your research.  It does not matter if it is a 100 level or a 600 level course, people could learn from the basic to the most advanced.  In return you get to build a web presence in your discipline.  Every research paper will be searchable on internet search sites (Google, Bing, Yahoo, ect) by your name, the title, and any other keywords that you request.  This means that anytime someone types your name into the web, your research will come up building your name and reputation.

Are you writing or have a Master's Thesis?  You should take pride in this achievement.  Many of these are bound and held at the Universities Library, but never published.  Teach other's what you have learned and take pride and credit for what you have done and post it here.  My hopes is that people take an interest in posting their work and will be the JStor (my favorite) of unpublished research.  This could be a valuable resource for both the researchers and the public.

If you are interested in posting your research, please send it to research@projectilepoints.net  Please include the Title page or at least your name, title, course number (or course level), and any keywords you think are applicable to your research.  You may also add the university and professor if you would like that added.
