Altai Pastoralism Project Funded by National Geographic Society and Wenner-Gren Foundation

The Rise of Altai Mountain Pastoralism Project (RAMPP) will investigate the enigmatic Afanasievo culture in the Altai region and the spread of dairying and herding practices.

Congratulations to Dr. Taylor Hermes of the Department of Archaeogenetics at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History for receiving grants from the National Geographic Society and the Wenner-Gren Foundation to investigate the emergence of the earliest herding societies in Inner Asia!
