SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation “Stalking the Lieutenant: The 1871 Juh-Cushing Ambush Site”
DESCRIPTION:Lieutenant Howard Bass Cushing\, photo courtesy of Arizona Pathfinders \nOn Thursday\, January 17\, 2019\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center presents “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner featuring the presentation “Stalking the Lieutenant: The 1871 Juh-Cushing Ambush Site” by Dr. Deni J. Seymour. This free presentation will be held from 6:00 to 8:30 pm at Karichimaka Mexican Restaurant located at  5252 S. Mission Road\, Tucson (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu.). \nIn May 1871 U.S. Army Sergeant John Mott followed Apache footprints into history. An initial encounter and fallback was followed by an advance\, during which Lieutenant Howard Bass Cushing found his way into herodom\, falling with two others in a remote canyon in Cochise County\, Arizona Territory. This Medals of Honor ambush site has defied discovery\, despite detailed narrative accounts by survivors and a recovery party. Using Apache landscape use and ambush behavior this hallowed location has now been found\, in a discovery that brings into question many long-held misconceptions regarding Apache battle tactics and organization. It also provides important insights into assumptions we bring to our interpretation of narrative accounts\, battlefield behavior\, landscape references\, and weapons in use at the time. \nReservations must be requested AND CONFIRMED before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO WHETHER YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room. Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. \n20190117(V1)_ThirdThursday_DeniSeymour_StalkingTheLieutenant

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought - "300 Years After His Death Father Kino's Sonora and Arizona Missions Live On"
DESCRIPTION:Mission church at Santa Ana Viejo\, Sonora\, Mexico\, viewed from inside a nearby gazebo. Photo by Allen Dart. \nOld Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought dinner presentation will feature “300 Years After His Death Father Kino’s Sonora and Arizona Missions Live On” by Father Greg Adolf. This special presentation and dinner will be held on Thursday\, December 20\, 2018 in the Dining Hall and Petroglyph Auditorium of the Picture Rocks Redemptorist Renewal Center (PRRRC)\, 7101 W. Picture Rocks Rd.\, Tucson. Three hundred years after his death\, Jesuit Padre Eusebio Francisco Kino’s impact on Arizona and Sonora continues to shape the culture and economy of two nations\, as well as the Native American communities in this part of the world. Beginning in 1687\, and continuing for the next 24 years until his death in 1711\, Padre Kino established a string of missions and ranches across the area\, while exploring and mapping an area of 50\,000 square miles. In addition to founding almost two dozen missions and introducing Christianity to thousands of Native Americans\, Padre Kino brought about major changes in the area’s agriculture\, economics\, and\, of course\, the culture. Padre Kino introduced European tools and agricultural methods\, as well as many European fruits and grains to Arizona\, including citrus trees and wheat. The Jesuit also became one of the first and largest cattle ranchers in northern Mexico and southern Arizona\, and he trained many Native Americans to become the first cowboys in the area\, another lasting legacy. Well-known folklorist James “Big Jim” Griffith says that every time we enjoy carne asada or quesadilla\, we are paying tribute to the “Padre on Horseback”! Commemorated with heroic equestrian statues and place names across the Borderlands\, Padre Kino emerges from the historical records as a man of immense vision\, a dedicated “bridge builder” between peoples and cultures\, and a defender of the Native Peoples. \nA free tour of the Picture Rocks petroglyphs will be led by archaeologist Allen Dart at 5:00 pm\, followed by dinner at 6:00 and the presentation from 7:15 to 8:30. Dinner is $16 per person\, payable to Old Pueblo Archaeology Center by check or credit/debit card no later than 5:00 pm\, Tuesday\, Dec. 18\, so that Old Pueblo can tell PRRRC on Dec. 19 how many guests will attend. Donations will be requested during the event to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Call Old Pueblo at 520-798-1201 no later than 5 p.m. Dec. 18 to make reservations and pay for dinner.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought: "“The Peaceful Enemies: Tucson’s Apaches de Paz\, 1786-1873"
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, November 15\, 2018\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology’s Third Thursday Food for Thought as historian Jim Turner presents “The Peaceful Enemies: Tucson’s Apaches de Paz\, 1786-1873.” This free event will be held from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant at 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, AZ. Guests can order their own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu. \n      Apaches de Paz\, the ‘Peaceful Enemies’ (Apachu means “enemy” in Zuni)\, were also known as Manso Apaches. When they immigrated from the Great Plains the Athapaskan-speaking Apache retained their hunter-gatherer lifestyle. That included raiding\, which led to violence and retaliatory attacks. But in 1786 New Spain’s Viceroy Bernardo de Galvez called for a plan that involved forming peace camps for the Apaches. If they agreed to settle in camps near the presidios the Apaches would receive allotments of beef\, blankets\, and guns. The Spanish army also provided the Mansos with horses and used them as auxiliary troops against other Apaches who were still raiding. The Galvez plan was successful for several decades\, and by 1871 there were still more than a hundred Apaches de Paz living near Tucson and others who had intermarried with the Tohono O’odham and lived near San Xavier Mission. \nReservations must be requested AND CONFIRMED before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO WHETHER YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Dinner and Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Clovis type Paleoindian projectile point discovered at the Lehner site\, Arizona State Museum photograph courtesy of Vance T. Holliday. \nOn Thursday October 18\, 2018\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature the presentation “In Search of the First Americans across the Greater Southwest” by archaeologist Dr. Vance T. Holliday at U-Like Oriental Buffet Restaurant\, 5101 N. Oracle Road\, Tucson. From 6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu). \nThe First Americans – the so-called “Paleoindians” – were the earliest hunters and gatherers to settle in the southwestern U.S. and northwestern Mexico. They lived at a time when the climate was substantially different than today – generally cooler and wetter – and when large mammals of thke Pleistocene epoch such as mammoth\, mastodon\, horse\, camel\, dire wolf\, big cats\, and bears were still around. Clovis type projectile points made by the earliest known Paleoindian groups in the region some 13\,500-13\,000 years before present (BP) have been found with the remains of mammoth and other extinct megafauna. Paleoindian sites of the Folsom culture that succeeded Clovis ca. 13\,000-12\,000 years BP are rare in southern Arizona and Sonora but more common on the Colorado Plateau of northern Arizona and northwestern New Mexico\, in the Great Plains\, and they are locally quite dense along the greater Rio Grande Valley of New Mexico and southern Colorado. By Folsom time most of the Pleistocene megafauna were extinct except for Bison antiquus\, and Folsom people apparently became expert hunters of those now-extinct bison. Even younger Paleoindian sites of the 12\,500-11\,000 years BP era also are known from the Rio Grande region but they seem to be fewer than Folsom. By those late Paleoindian times the climate was significantly warmer and drier than during the Clovis or Folsom periods and human adaptive behavior was likely shifting toward more sedentary “Archaic” lifestyles with increased focus on plant gathering and use of local resources. \nReservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO WHETHER YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room. Reservations must be requested before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date. Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu.

SUMMARY:“Frida's Roots: Understanding the Course of Mexican History through Frida Kahlo and Her Artwork”
DESCRIPTION:Painting of Frida Kahlo by the artist GEMDIAZ titled “Homenaje a Frida Kahlo” courtesy of Michael Brescia.     \nOn Thursday\, September 20\, 2018\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature the presentation “Frida’s Roots: Understanding the Course of Mexican History through Frida Kahlo and Her Artwork” by Dr. Michael M. Brescia at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\,10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona. This event will be held from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. and is free (order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu). \nAs one of several artists to emerge from the violence and chaos of the Mexican Revolution of 1910-1920\, Frida Kahlo’s lived experiences fashioned a remarkable artistic talent that promoted across international borders mexicanidad\, or the spirit of a Mexican cultural identity. Despite living in the professional shadows of her famous husband\, the muralist Diego Rivera\, Frida added deeply personal elements to her artwork that simultaneously reflected and contributed to historical understandings of Mexican culture. In a richly illustrated PowerPoint presentation\, Arizona State Museum historian Dr. Michael Brescia will examine Frida Kahlo’s life and show just how intimately her artwork reveals the sweep of the Mexican historical experience\, from Pre-Columbian times to the mid-twentieth century. \nReservations must be requested AND CONFIRMED before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO WHETHER YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room.

SUMMARY:“Canoa Speaks O’odham”
DESCRIPTION:NOTE LOCATION CHANGE: “Canoa Speaks O’odham” free lectures and video presentation on Saturday\, May 19\, 2018 at Historic Hacienda de la Canoa\, 5375 S. I-19 Frontage Rd.\, Green Valley\, Arizona. Co-sponsored by the Friends of Canoa\, Arizona Humanities\, and Old Pueblo Archaeology Center. This event will be held from 1:00-2:30 p.m.\, with a $10 suggested donation. \nHistorically\, the Canoa vicinity of the Santa Cruz River valley south of San Xavier del Bac was an important stop for travelers\, offering a constant source of water in the dry Sonoran Desert. Historic maps from the time of Father Kino (1690s) show a “water hole” in this valley segment and later maps associate it with “canoas\,” hollowed-out cottonwood logs used as troughs to supply fresh drinking water. To date\, very little historical information has been shared about this region\, which from early times had been inhabited by Sobaípuri\, Akimel\, and Tohono O’odham who trace their ancestry to the more ancient Hohokam and Middle Santa Cruz archaeological cultures. In 2013\, Pima County acquired the 4\,800-acre property that includes the historic Canoa Ranch and began efforts to restore the ranch headquarters and open it to the public for tours\, fostering a demand by the public to know more about the region’s history. This year the Friends of Canoa Heritage Foundation teamed with Arizona Humanities and Old Pueblo Archaeology Center to help meet this demand by producing a series of four short “Canoa Speaks O’odham” video segments narrated in both English and the O’odham native tongue\, since language preservation is a key element for this project. Each video shares rare insights into the traditions of the O’odham\, and combined cuts from each of the short videos have been incorporated into a longer video that will be shown for the first time at this May 19 public lecture and movie event. Old Pueblo’s Executive Director Allen Dart will open the program with a presentation about the archaeology of the Canoa area\, and Adam Andrews\, a member of the Tohono O’odham Nation’s San Xavier District\, will follow with a discussion of modern San Xavier and Tohono O’odham Nation education\, government\, and cultural affairs. The event culminates in the “Canoa Speaks O’odham” video to encourage audience discussion on language preservation and tribal communications. Subsequently the videos will be published online at www.VisitCanoa.comt to complement information shared in the recently completed heritage interpretive-signage project at the Interstate-19 Canoa Rest Area. \nFor more information contact Dawn Morley at 520-289-3940 or inspired@visitcanoa.com. \nMap created by Pima County GIS Maps showing the limits of the historic Canoa Ranch south of Tucson in 1953.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought  - "El Camino del Diablo"
DESCRIPTION:Deceptive desolation of El Camino del Diablo\, photo provided by Butch Farabee. \nOn Thursday March 15\, 2018\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature the presentation “El Camino del Diablo\, The Devil’s Highway” by retired National Park Service Superintendent Charles R. “Butch” Farabee at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona. This free presentation (order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu) is from 6:00 to 8:30 pm. \nOn the National Register of Historic Places\, El Camino del Diablo\, The Devil’s Highway\, is a brutal\, 200-mile long\, prehistoric and historic route from northern Sonora to Yuma\, Arizona\, then on to the mission areas of California. Used for at least a millennium by Native Americans\, conquistadores\, Father Kino\, miners\, undocumented aliens\, and modern-day adventurers\, El Camino crosses three large federal areas in the extreme desert of southern Arizona\, which is the focus of this presentation. A reputed 400 to 2\,000 lives have been lost traveling along our very own\, isolated and wild part of the Arizona-Mexico border\, most from heat\, exposure\, and a desperate lack of water. Join Butch Farabee\, who has driven this remote\, four-wheel drive road six times\, for a part history\, part travelogue\, and part informational overview of this fascinating but humbling area. \nReservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO THAT YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room. Reservations must be requested before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date. Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - “Cochise and Bascom\, How the Apache Wars Began”
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner featuring “Cochise and Bascom\, How the Apache Wars Began” free presentation by historian Doug Hocking at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona\, from 6:00 to 8:30 pm; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities. In 1861\, Lieutenant George Bascom confronted Chiricahua Apache leader Cochise demanding the return of the abducted boy\, Felix Ward (aka Mickey Free). The epic 14-day affair\, 70 soldiers surrounded by 500 Apaches rescued by the timely intervention of the cavalry\, ended in blood with hostages slain on both sides. Congress recognized Dr. Bernard Irwin\, who rode with 12 men to relieve the beleaguered soldiers\, with the first Medal of Honor. Historians have come to credit Bascom with starting a war. This talk explores the circumstances that led to the confrontation and how blame came to rest on the lieutenant. Speaker Doug Hocking is an independent scholar who has completed advanced studies in American history\, ethnology\, and historical archaeology. In 2015\, he won the Philip A. Danielson Award for Best Presentation. Doug\, who served in Military Intelligence and retired as an armored cavalry officer\, grew up among the Jicarilla Apache and paisanos of the Rio Arriba. Doug writes both fiction and history. His work has appeared in True West\, Wild West\, Buckskin Bulletin\, Roundup Magazine\, and the Journal of Arizona History. Doug on the board of the Arizona Historical Society\, Cochise County Historical Society\, the Oregon-California Trails Association\, and Westerners International. This program was made possible by Arizona Humanities.\nReservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - "The Ancient Hohokam Ballgame of Arizona"
DESCRIPTION:An excavated and reconstructed Hohokam ballcourt at the Pueblo Grande archaeological site in Phoenix; photograph provided by Todd W. Bostwick \nOld Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner on Thursday\, January 18\, 2018\, from 6:00-8:30 pm\, will feature the presentation “The Ancient Hohokam Ballgame of Arizona” by Dr. Todd Bostwick. The ancient Hohokam culture of Arizona constructed at least 200 ball courts more than 800 years ago. These oval depressions were likely used to play a ball game that originated in southern Mexico\, where the game was played with a rubber ball and had a very important role in reenacting the creation of humans in this world. This presentation will describe the recorded Hohokam ball courts located within Hohokam villages scattered throughout Arizona\, summarize what archaeologists propose they were used for\, and discuss how these public structures may relate to what is known about the Mexican rubber ball games\, which are still played today. This program was made possible by Arizona Humanities. \nThis free presentation will be from 6:00-8:30pm at U-Like Oriental Buffet Restaurant\, 5101 N. Oracle Rd.\, Tucson (order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu). Reservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - "Who Are the Sobaípuri O’odham"
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner featuring “Who Are the Sobaípuri O’odham: The Sobaípuri Legacy at the San Xavier/Wa:k Community” presentation and video by Deni J. Seymour\, Tony Burrell\, and David Tenario at U-Like Oriental Buffet Restaurant\, 5101 N. Oracle Rd. (at River Rd.)\, Tucson; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities. This free program is from 6 to 8:30 p.m. (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu.) \n \nOver the last couple of decades much has been learned about the Sobaípuri O’odham who inhabited southern Arizona’s Santa Cruz and San Pedro valleys at the dawn of written history. However\, their actual history differs substantially in many ways from commonly held notions. The archaeological and ethnohistoric research of the presenters provides new perspectives on where and how they lived\, how long they occupied the valleys of southern Arizona\, their relationship to the ancient Hohokam\, and other topics. Special reference will be made to the Sobaípuri of San Xavier del Bac (Wa:k)\, where descendant populations reside. Dr. Deni Seymour is joined by her associates\, Elder Tony Burrell and Cultural Specialist David Tenario of Wa:k\, in presenting their video entitled “Who Are the Sobaípuri O’odham?” followed by interactive lectures and discussions. Through these means they strive to promote understanding of the human experience through the eyes of the Wa:k O’odham and their ancestors. Using discussions and interviews with Wa:k O’odham community members\, the video and subsequent discussions highlight the issues of how public policy\, politics\, and economic interest have influenced our understanding of the Wa:k O’odham and how their heritage has been shaped and in some cases erased. This program is sponsored by Arizona Humanities and Old Pueblo Archaeology Center.\nReservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO THAT YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room. Reservations must be requested before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date. Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - "Great Moments in Dendrochronology: Important Achievements of Tree-Ring Science"
DESCRIPTION:Tree-ring cross-section photo courtesy of The University of Arizona’s Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research \nOld Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature the presentation “Great Moments in Dendrochronology: Important Achievements of Tree-Ring Science” by dendrochronologist Dr. Paul R. Sheppard at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona\, from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. As a scientific discipline\, dendrochronology\, otherwise known as tree-ring science\, is just over 100 years old. In that time\, several important scientific findings have been achieved that can be considered “great moments” (a nod to Disneyland and Mr. Lincoln). It is useful to review great achievements of science in their own right\, as they usually have interesting twists and turns along the way from start to the point of being identified as important. Additionally\, reviewing multiple great moments allows for identifying shared characteristics between them that make them great and therefore could serve as guidelines for current and future research to strive to meet to also be considered notable\, i.e.\, great. We’ll look into a couple great moments of dendrochronology of the past as well as a current research project that might attain the level of being an important achievement.\nReservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO THAT YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room.

SUMMARY:“Third Thursday Food for Thought”
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” on Thursday\, September 21\, 2017\, 6-8:30pm will feature archaeologist Dr. Aaron M. Wright who will present “Hohokam/Patayan to O’odham/Yuman: The Cultural Landscape of the Lower Gila River.” \nThe lower Gila River is a complicated cultural landscape. Though for many this remote region in southwestern Arizona is a terra incognita\, over millennia\, different cultural traditions ebbed and flowed along the river’s banks\, with generation after generation leaving their mark on the rocks and in the sand. Major rock art sites\, such as Sears Point and Painted Rock\, attest to the depth and richness of this cultural landscape. In this Third Thursday Food for Thought\, Dr. Wright will cast contemporary light on the archaeology and post-contact history of the lower Gila River. This talk will draw on recent research emerging from ongoing efforts to establish a Great Bend of the Gila National Monument. Dr. Wright will provide an overview of that effort\, and detail how collaboration with descendant communities is helping to refine broader understanding of contemporary tribal connections to this landscape. \nThis free presentation will be held at Karichimaka Mexican Restaurant\, 5252 S. Mission Rd.\, in Tucson.  Reservations are required: info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. PLEASE WAIT TO HEAR FROM OLD PUEBLO THAT YOUR RESERVATION HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BEFORE ATTENDING because the Fire Code limits how many guests we can have in the restaurant meeting room.

SUMMARY:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought”
DESCRIPTION:Some pueblo rooms exposed during recent excavations at the Elk Ridge site: photograph courtesy of Barbara Roth \nOn Thursday\, February 16\, 2017 from 6-8:30 pm\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner presentation will feature “New Insights into Mimbres Pueblo Communities: Excavations at the Elk Ridge Site” by archaeologist Barbara Roth at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona. Excavations in 2015 and 2016 at the Elk Ridge archaeological site\, a 200-room pueblo dating to the Classic Mimbres period (AD 1000-1130) have provided new insights into Classic Mimbres period pueblo communities. The Elk Ridge site has a sad history\, as it represented the only unlooted large Classic Mimbres pueblo until the owner of the southern portion of the site bulldozed his section prior to the passage of the New Mexico state burials-discovery law. Fortunately\, a portion of the site located on US Forest Service land remains nearly intact\, although recent damage from an arroyo cutting through the western portion of the site has exposed some pueblo rooms. Dr. Roth\, along with project co-director Dr. Darrell Creel\, has been conducting excavations of rooms exposed along this arroyo.  Their work\, and excavations directed by William Russell and Karl Laumbach on the south end of the site after it was looted\, have begun to provide new insights into this important pueblo community. In this presentation\, Dr. Roth presents some of the initial findings of their work at Elk Ridge.\nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Because seating is limited in order for the program to be in compliance with the Fire Code\, those wishing to attend must call 520-798-1201 and must have their reservations confirmed before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date.\n**** IF YOU WOULD LIKE US TO EMAIL YOU A FLYER with color photos about the above-listed activity please reply with “Send flyer” and INCLUDE THE EVENT’S DATE in your email subject line. \n

SUMMARY:"Arts and Culture of Ancient Southern Arizona Hohokam Indians"
DESCRIPTION:Watercolor by C. Kemper “Golden Valley\,” depicts the Hohokam building canals to bring life-giving water to the barren desert. \nThis free presentation will be given by archaeologist Allen Dart  for the Rim Country Chapter\, Arizona Archaeological Society\, at Fellowship Hall of the Church of the Holy Nativity\, 1414 Easy Street\, Payson\, on Saturday\, December 17\, 2016 from 10-11:30 am. The Hohokam Native American culture flourished in southern Arizona from the sixth through fifteenth centuries. Hohokam artifacts\, architecture\, and other material culture provide archaeologists with clues for identifying where the Hohokam lived\, interpreting how they adapted to the Sonoran Desert for centuries\, and explaining why their culture mysteriously disappeared. In this presentation archaeologist Allen Dart illustrates the material culture of the Hohokam and presents possible interpretations about their relationships to the natural world\, time reckoning\, religious practices\, beliefs\, and deities\, and possible reasons for the eventual demise of their way of life\, using rich illustrations of Hohokam artifacts\, rock art\, and other cultural features. The program is made possible by Arizona Humanities. \n* This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center-sponsored event.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought - "Epics of the American Southwest: Hopi\, Dine and Hispanic Narratives of Heroes and Heroines in Mythic Literature"
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, December 15\, 2016\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature a presentation titled “Epics of the American Southwest: Hopi\, Diné and Hispanic Narratives of Heroes and Heroines in Mythic Literature” by Dr. Sharonah Fredrick at Karichimaka Mexican Restaurant\, 5252 S. Mission Road\, Tucson; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities. From 6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu).\nToo often the claim is heard that there is very little ancient history or literature in the United States. Nothing could be further from the truth. Whether it is the Hopi epics of the wanderings of Long Sash and the exploits of the Koshare twins; the Navajo legends that connect the cultures of the Southwest with the great late-Medieval stories of Toltec-Aztec Mexico; or the adventures of Spanish men and women who deserted Francisco de Coronado’s expedition in protest over Coronado’s treatment of the Native peoples\, Arizona and the whole American Southwest are a treasure trove of epic narratives. This lecture stresses the social and moral messages transmitted in these oral and written texts.\nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Because seating is limited in order for the program to be in compliance with the Fire Code\, those wishing to attend must call 520-798-1201 and have their reservations confirmed before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date. \nEpics of the American SW flyer

Oracle Rd.\, Oro Valley\, Arizona. From 6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu).\nYoeme (Yaqui Indian) settlement in Arizona stemmed from the Mexican government’s war with the Yoeme in the state of Sonora during the 1890s and early 1900s. Toward the end of the nineteenth century Mexico began deporting Yoeme from their homeland in Sonora to other Mexican states\, and after 1880 there was a steady migration of Yoeme into southern Arizona that reached its maximum in the early 1900s. By 1908 hundreds of Yoeme had fled into the U.S. and settled permanently here\, and in the 1920s more of them fled Mexico to seek political asylum in the U.S. and join the Yoeme settlements that by then had grown up in southern Arizona. By 1940 there were about 3\,000 Yoeme in Arizona\, mostly living in several well-established villages including Libre (Barrio Libre) and Pascua (Barrio Loco) in Tucson\, Wiilo Kampo in Marana\, and others near Phoenix\, Scottsdale\, Eloy\, and Somerton\, Arizona. In 1952 the City of Tucson annexed the original 40-acre Pascua village where many Yoeme continue to live\, and in 1978 the U.S. Government established the Pascua Yaqui Indian Reservation (originally called New Pascua) after granting federal recognition to the Pascua Yaqui Tribe. In this presentation\, Yoeme historian Felipe Moline will tell about the early settlement locations provided to him by his maternal grandfather and grandmother\, his grandmother’s cousin\, and several elders from Tucson’s original Pascua Village.\n[Also see February 11\, 2017 “Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities” cultural sites tour announcement.]\nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought - “When Romans Visited Tucson: The Lead Cross Controversy”
DESCRIPTION:Some of the so-called “Tucson artifacts” courtesy of Arizona State Parks. \nOn Thursday\, October 20\, 2016\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature the presentation “When Romans Visited Tucson: The Lead Cross Controversy” with archaeologist Dr. Todd W. Bostwick at a Tucson restaurant to be announced from 6-8:30 pm; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities. In 1924-1925\, a collection of unusual lead artifacts which contained mysterious inscriptions were discovered deeply buried near Silverbell Road in Tucson. These artifacts —  crosses\, crescents\, batons\, swords\, and spears — generated considerable interest  around the world when it was learned that the inscriptions contained Christian\, Muslim\, Hebraic\, and Freemasonry symbols.  The artifacts were initially interpreted as evidence that Europeans had come to America hundreds of years before Columbus\, but some scholars questioned their authenticity. This talk tells the story of their discovery and the controversies that continue to surround them. This program was made possible by Arizona Humanities.\nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Because seating is limited in order for the program to be in compliance with the Fire Code\, those wishing to attend must call 520-798-1201 and must have their reservations confirmed before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date.

SUMMARY:“Third Thursday Food for Thought”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, September 15\, 2016\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner presentation will be  “A Boot in the Door: Pioneer Women Archaeologists of Arizona” with Dr. Nancy Parezo\, at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. Oracle Rd.\, in Tucson from 6 to 8:30 p.m. The men who explored Arizona are legends in the history of the region and of anthropology\, but what about the women who accompanied them or explored by themselves?  Did you know that Matilda Coxe Stevenson was a member of the first official government survey of Canyon de Chelly or that Emma Mindeleff surveyed ruins in the Verde Valley while Theresa Russell helped her husband locate Hohokam sites? Probably not\, for none are listed in “official” histories. Learn about the hidden pioneer archaeologists of the 19th century and honor Arizona’s unsung heroines of science. Dr. Nancy Parezo is a Professor of American Indian Studies and Anthropology at the University of Arizona and an Associate Curator of Ethnology at the Arizona State Museum. The program is made possible by Arizona Humanities.\nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts.

SUMMARY:"Archaeology's Deep Time Perspective on Environment and Social Sustainability"
DESCRIPTION:This free presentation will be given by Allen Dart on Wednesday\, August 10\, 2016\, 7-8 pm\,  for Arizona Archaeological Society Homolovi Chapter at Winslow Chamber of Commerce\, 523 W. Second St.\, Winslow\, Arizona; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities* The deep time perspective that archaeology and related disciplines provide about natural hazards\, environmental change\, and human adaptation not only is a valuable supplement to historical records\, it sometimes contradicts historical data used by modern societies to make decisions affecting social sustainability and human safety. What can be learned from scientific evidence that virtually all prehistoric farming cultures in Arizona and the Southwest eventually surpassed their thresholds of sustainability\, leading to collapse or reorganization of their societies? Could the disastrous damages to nuclear power plants damaged by the Japanese tsunami of 2011 have been avoided if the engineers who decided where to build those plants had not ignored evidence of prehistoric tsunamis? This presentation looks at archaeological\, geological\, and sustainable-agricultural evidence on environmental changes and how human cultures have adapted to those changes\, and discusses the value of a “beyond history” perspective for modern society. The program is made possible by Arizona Humanities. \n* This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event.
