content: This series consists of photographs of various size, slides, negatives, transparencies, and drawings created and gathered by Meggers and Evans. Images were created during South American expeditions, were acquired by Meggers and Evans to aid in their research, or were created for publication. There is also a significant amount of photographic material that was sent to Meggers and Evans from other Smithsonian staff and international colleagues for comment or study. In addition, there is one subseries of images of Meggers's and Evans's that were created for personal and publicity reasons, and document their work with staff and colleagues in their offices at the National Museum of Natural History. This series is arranged by geographic location and subject. The Print and Negative File retains Meggers's original arrangement.
