About this Collection

The Rainbow Bridge-Monument Valley Expedition (1933-1938) includes many photographs and negatives from the over 600 sites that comprised what was the largest survey expedition to date in the Four Corners area of the American Southwest. Ralph Beals and George Brainerd, both lead archaeologists for the Expedition, became the first professors in a newly formed Department of Anthropology at UCLA, with Ralph Beals as head of the fledgling department. Photographs include the lab for the Expedition where work was carried out until 1945 in the top floor of the Powell Library. View this collection on the contributor's website.
