摘要

The authors developed a stewardship program, based on functioning models inArizona and Texas, to train interested local groups and individuals to protect cultural resources. The program was adapted to Alaska's remoteness, sparse populations, and climate by giving Stewards greater flexibility to deal with local conditions. The State Office of History and Archaeology and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are attempting to implement Stewardship in areas expressing interest.
