What we have in VIA:
The Peabody at this moment has approximately 45,000 black and white images from the Carnegie Institution of Washington (CIW) collection digitized in VIA. This CIW documents the Institute's archaeological research undertaken in Central America from 1929 to 1957. The CIW deposited the photographs at the Peabody Museum after its department of archaeology closed in 1958.
