The Carol V. Ruppé Distinguished Service Award was first presented in 1990 to recognize individuals who have given sustained and truly outstanding service to the Society for Historical Archaeology (SHA). Carol V. Ruppé was the first recipient. At the 2020 annual conference in Boston, Terry H. Klein (Fig. 1) was honored with the 2020 Ruppé Award for his instrumental role in professionalizing SHA’s approach to historic preservation and government-affairs advocacy. Terry’s distinguished service centers on his role as chair of the SHA Government Affairs Committee for over a decade (2009–present). The committee works with the SHA Board of Directors to respond to national and state historic preservation issues and concerns, and Terry represents SHA during educational efforts with members of the U.S. Congress and federal agencies in Washington, D.C. Prior to the time Terry took over as head of the committee, SHA had relied on Loretta Neumann and then Nellie Longsworth to lead its government advocacy efforts. Loretta and Nellie effectively supported SHA in this area for many years and helped historic preservation weather many challenges. But, as individuals, there was only so much that Loretta and Nellie could do. Threats to cultural resources and heritage protection continue to increase exponentially, and it was no longer possible for each of the major archaeological societies to operate in isolation. Terry was instrumental in professionalizing SHA’s approach to historic preservation advocacy by bringing the cultural heritage law and policy firm Cultural Heritage Partners (CHP) on board to serve as the society’s voice in Washington, D.C. In 2017, when Republicans controlled both the House of Representatives and the Senate, Terry worked with CHP to create the Coalition for American Heritage.

Carol V. Ruppé 杰出服务奖：Terry H. Klein

Carol V. Ruppé 杰出服务奖于 1990 年首次颁发，以表彰为历史考古学会 (SHA) 提供持续和真正杰出服务的个人。Carol V. Ruppé 是第一位获奖者。在波士顿举行的 2020 年年会上，Terry H. Klein（图 1）因其在使 SHA 的历史保护和政府事务宣传方法专业化方面发挥的重要作用而荣获 2020 年鲁佩奖。Terry 的杰出服务在于他担任 SHA 政府事务委员会主席超过十年（2009 年至今）。该委员会与 SHA 董事会合作应对国家和州的历史保护问题和关注，Terry 在与美国国会和华盛顿特区联邦机构成员的教育工作中代表 SHA 在 Terry 接任委员会主席之前，SHA 曾先后依靠 Loretta Neumann 和 Nellie Longsworth 来领导其政府宣传工作。Loretta 和 Nellie 多年来在该地区有效地支持了 SHA，并帮助历史保护应对了许多挑战。但是，作为个人，Loretta 和 Nellie 能做的只有这么多。对文化资源和遗产保护的威胁继续成倍增加，每个主要考古学会不再可能孤立运作。2017 年，特里将文化遗产法律和政策公司文化遗产合作伙伴 (CHP) 引入华盛顿特区，作为社会的代言人，在使 SHA 的历史保护宣传方法专业化方面发挥了重要作用，当共和党人同时控制众议院和参议院时，特里与卫生防护中心合作创建了美国遗产联盟。该联盟创建于 https://doi.org/10.1007/s41636-020-00249-1
