Why did “Anthropology Resources on the Internet” (ARI) become the WWW VL History : Archaeology/Prehistory?
In 2004 the WWW VL History Central Catalogue lacked a maintainer for its archaeology and prehistory indexes. Due to the work of allen lutins (1995-1999) and bernard clist (1999-2004), ARI has become one of the main archaeology/anthropology directories on the Internet. It was suggested, and accepted, to have ARI stepping in as the archaeology/prehistory index of the WWW VL History network.
