The Klinsky Expeditions are a series five archaeological field projects funded by a generous gift from businessman and University of Michigan alum Steve Klinsky. Stretching across Africa, Asia, and North America, these projects are led by LSA faculty from U-M’s two archaeology museums—the Kelsey and the Museum of Anthropological Archaeology.
