For your edification, there are a number of related listserver lists
and newsfeed services which deal in anthropological topics. This list
is not all-inclusive, so please feel free to tell me about other ones.
To search for lists you might be interested in, mail LISTSERV@UBVM (or
your local listserver) the message LIST GLOBAL /xxxx (substituting the
search string for the xxxx). As usual, send any comments to me at
ANTOWNER@UBVM. Thanks.
LISTSERVERS:
Generally, to subscribe to a list, send the command SUB list_name
your_name, to LISTSERV@address. If that fails, contact the listowner.
Each list has its own rules about who can join and post, but most are
open to all.

This list designed for those who already have a grasp of how to use such
net tools as listserv, ftp, telnet, gopher, and World Wide Web. Please
contact me with corrections, updates and comments, but if you need
assistance in utilizing these resources, please see the list at the
end of this document! I don't have the space to thank everyone who's
contributed, but i must acknowledge Peter Stott's "Internet Resources
for Heritage Conservation, Historic Preservation and Archaeology", a very
useful resource (write to him for a copy: pstott@jade.tufts.edu)
I'd like to make this available via gopher--anyone want to archive this
at a site with gopher access (and preferably ftp access as well)?
