October hit with a bang as the Peabody held an open house for the PA community to celebrate our 125th anniversary and show off the building renovation. Thank you to everyone who came by! We are also excited to share a blog by Peabody Scholar, George Richardson, about his research experience over the summer. And finally, a new newsletter feature - Shout Out - highlights an ongoing project, upcoming staff presentations, or something fun related to the Peabody or PA. For example, Shout Out to our skeleton archaeologist who helps us to celebrate Dia de los Muertos!

| As we celebrate 125 years of impact, we invite you to support the Robert S. Peabody Institute of Archaeology and help ensure that future generations can continue to learn from, preserve, and engage with our shared human history.
For more than a century, the Peabody has inspired student exploration, fostered appreciation and understanding of Native American cultures, and supported archaeological research. This landmark anniversary offers us the opportunity to look back with gratitude on our history, while looking forward to a vibrant future.
