The Belize Institute of Archaeology (IOA) is the government institution that manages the preservation and development of Belize's rich and diverse archaeological heritage. It has been active since its founding in 1955 (in its former guise as the Department of Archaeology). It remained the 'DOA' until 2002 at which point it was subsumed under the National Institute of Culture and History (NICH), and renamed the Institute of Archaeology.
