SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought presents “Archaeological Humbugs: Exposing Frauds\, Busting Myths\, and Solving Mysteries”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, May 15\, 2025\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” presentation will feature “Archaeological Humbugs: Exposing Frauds\, Busting Myths\, and Solving Mysteries” by archaeologist Kenneth L. Feder\, Ph.D. This free online Zoom presentation will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 pm\, ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time (same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nIs the archaeological record of North America a lot weirder than traditional researchers would have you believe? Is there\, for example\, archaeological evidence that giant human beings lived just outside of Syracuse\, New York\, in antiquity? And what do Mark Twain\, L. Frank Baum\, and P.T. Barnum have to say about it? Did a contingent of the Lost Tribes of Israel visit New Mexico\, maybe a couple of thousand years ago\, marking their presence by etching the Ten Commandments in Hebrew onto a boulder southwest of Albuquerque? Or maybe did ancient Jews leave Hebrew inscribed artifacts in an Ohio burial mound? Did Native Americans paint pictographs depicting a pterodactyl and maybe also extraterrestrial aliens in Utah? Archaeologist Kenneth Feder\, PhD\, Professor Emeritus of Anthropology\, Central Connecticut State University in New Britain\, will reveal the shocking\, hidden truth underlying these archaeological mysteries. Dr. Feder is the author of Frauds\, Myths\, and Mysteries: Science and Pseudoscience in Archaeology (Oxford University Press\, 2020\, 10th edition); The Past in Perspective: An Introduction to Human Prehistory (Oxford University Press\, 2020\, 9th edition); Native American Archaeology in the Parks (Rowman & Littlefield\, 2023); Archaeological Oddities: A Field Guide to Forty Claims of Lost Civilizations\, Ancient Visitors\, and Other Strange Sites in North America (Rowman & Littlefield\, 2019)\, and several other books. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_RGsaXYHZQ6exeatF2qJ3rw.
