Hey! My name's Maria. I'm a junior here at UCF with Anthropology as my major, and Latin American Studies and Art History as my minors. I want to go on into my Master's and PhD focusing on ethnographic research on art in indigenous populations in South America, mostly the Amazonian and Andes regions, and curation of the art/artifacts into museums. The topic I chose was Indian art because of my interest in the topic as a whole. I wanted to explore something outside of South America for the project, and I think the art of India is beautiful, so it was pretty perfect.

The floodplains along the Nile constitute an important but as yet little utilized series of laboratories for the comparative study of the origins and interaction of ancient civilizations.
