This is an NSF program for anthropologically relevant archaeological research, almost always fieldwork or analysis of archaeological materials, led by Ph.D.-holding researchers at universities or nonprofits. For-profit businesses, including small businesses and sole proprietors, cannot apply at all, so business owners should not spend a week on this. If you are not a researcher with a Ph.D. or equivalent affiliation, this is not your program.

NSF Archaeology Program Senior Research Awards fund anthropologically relevant archaeological research, typically fieldwork or analysis of archaeological materials. PIs must hold a Ph.D. or equivalent and be affiliated with an eligible organization (usually universities or nonprofits); small businesses are not eligible applicants.
The Archaeology Program supports anthropologically relevant archaeological research to increase understanding of past behaviors. This means that the value of the proposed research can be justified within an anthropological context. It is the responsibility of the investigator to explain convincingly why the focus of their research is significant and has the potential to contribute to anthropological knowledge. The program sets no priorities by either geographic region or time period. It also has no priorities in regard to theoretical orientation or question. While the program, in order to encourage innovative research, neither limits nor defines specific categories of research, most proposals either request funds for field research or the analysis of archaeological material through multiple approaches.
Our reading of the listing: for-profit businesses are not eligible for this one.
Who May Serve as PI:
PIs and co-PIs must be researchers who have a Ph.D. or equivalent education and experience, sufficient to allow them to carry out independent basic research. PIs of senior research proposals are encouraged to include undergraduate and graduate students in their research projects, but not as PI/co-PI or other senior/key personnel.
