DESCRIPTION:The oldest\, most metal-poor stars in the Milky Way today were
  born in pristine environments in the early Universe\, and contain unique 
 clues about the First Stars and early galaxy formation. We typically searc
 h for metal-poor stars in the Galactic halo\, but the inner region overlap
 ping with the Galactic bulge has often been avoided — it is challenging 
 to identify metal-poor stars in this dusty\, crowded area of the sky. I wi
 ll present recent results from the Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS)\, w
 hich been very efficient at uncovering metal-poor stars in the bulge regio
 n. I will discuss the kinematics of the metal-poor inner Galaxy stars\, an
 d what we can learn from them about the ancient Milky Way.
