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. For event details contact Evelyn Christian at 928-476-3092 or elkwoman3@msn.com; for information about the activity subject matter contact Allen Dart at Tucson telephone 520-798-1201 or adart@oldpueblo.org.

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

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought - "The Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities"
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, November 17\, 2016\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner will feature a presentation “The Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities” by Yoeme historian Felipe Molina at El Molinito Mexican Restaurant\, 10180 N. 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. 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 - “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.

He presided over the modernization of antiquities laws at the state and national level. As past president of the Society for American Archaeology\, Dr. Thompson was instrumental in the creation of the Archaeological Resources Protection Act. His achievements in research and museum management were equaled by his dedication to promoting stewardship of archaeological resources – what today we call cultural resource management. Dr. Thompson assisted Indian tribes in developing their own museums. He also established cooperative relationships with Mexican archaeologists and institutions. In 1998\, he received the Distinguished Service Award from the Society for American Archaeology. This free presentation will be held at Banner University Medical Center DuVal Auditorium\, 1501 N.

SUMMARY:“Archaeological Investigations of La Ciudad within the Frank Luke Addition: A Neighborhood Services Department Project”
DESCRIPTION:Logan Simpson Design photograph of Hohokam pithouse excavation at La Ciudad archaeological site in Frank Luke Addition. \nThis free presentation will be given by archaeologists Mark Hackbarth and Chris Garraty\, sponsored by the Phoenix Chapter\, Arizona Archaeological Society\, at Pueblo Grande Museum and Archaeological Park\, 4619 E. Washington St.\, Phoenix on Thursday\, April 14\, 2016 from 7-9 pm.** Archaeologists Hackbarth and Garraty will discuss recent excavations by the Logan Simpson Design consulting company in Phoenix’s Frank Luke Addition\, near a dense concentration of Classic period materials. The investigation resulted in the identification of a Pioneer and Colonial period habitation area and an area with predominantly Pioneer to Sedentary period field houses. The activities and distinctly different feature types in these areas suggests that patterns of land use and a land tenure system were established by the middle Pioneer period and were sustained over several centuries until the early Sedentary period.  ** This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center-sponsored event\, however\, Old Pueblo members can attend PGMA functions at PGMA‘s member-discount rates\, and vice-versa.

SUMMARY:“Retablos and Ex-votos: Personal and Public Religiosity” by Gloria Fraser Giffords
DESCRIPTION:Retablo from Gloria Fraser Giffords collection courtesy of the Arizona State Museum\, University of Arizona. \nThis presentation\, given by Gloria Fraser Giffords\, will be held at the Arizona State Museum (ASM)\, 1013 E University Blvd\, University of Arizona\, Tucson on Thursday\, April 12\, 2016 at 3:00 pm (free with museum admission). Conservator and art historian Gloria Fraser Giffords\, guest curator of ASM’s “Intimacy of Faith” exhibit\, will discuss the history\, use\, and artistry of retablos and ex-votos in Mexico. Beginning in the nineteenth century\, testimonies of faith and private devotion in Mexico took the form of oil paintings on small pieces of tin plate that became public displays of efficacy of a particular saint’s protection. In many ways\, the freshness and honesty of these retablos and ex-votos convey an intimate vitality that distinguishes itself from the otherwise formal academic style imported from Europe that permeated nineteenth-century Mexican art. The majority of retablos featured in the exhibit are from the Giffords family collection. Refreshments served.  This program is presented in conjunction with the “Intimacy of Faith” exhibit that runs through the end of May 2016. This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event. For more information contact Darlene Lizarraga with ASM at dfl@email.arizona.edu.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought “Hohokam Rock Art\, Mountain Ritualism\, and Social Transformation in the Salt River Valley”
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Aaron Wright of a complex Hohokam petroglyph panel. \nThis Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation will be given by archaeologist Dr. Aaron Wright on Thursday March 17\, 2016 at 6-8:30 PM at U Like Asian Buffet Restaurant (330 S. Wilmot Rd.\, Tucson). The South Mountains in Phoenix encompass the largest concentration of rock art in the Hohokam core area. This month’s Third Thursday presentation focuses on this mountain landscape to contextualize and date its rock art\, and to relate it to ritual structure and practice to show how the production and use of Hohokam rock art were ritualized. Presenter Aaron Wright\, who recently authored the award-winning book Religion on the Rocks: Hohokam Rock Art\, Ritual Practice\, and Social Transformation\, argues that the Hohokam rock art was not produced exclusively by religious specialists (shamans) but that there was a more equitable distribution of religious knowledge and ritual power within Hohokam communities. He also presents evidence that most or all of the petroglyphs were created durfing the Hohokam Preclassic era between A.D. 450 and 1050\, and that production and use of the rock art ebbed or even ended at the beginning of the Hohokam Classic period.\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. Wednesday March 16.

SUMMARY:Arts and Culture of Ancient Southern Arizona Hohokam Indians
DESCRIPTION:An Ancient Family? Photograph by Arthur W. Vokes of Hohokam figurines carved from seashell. \nThe 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. This free presentation by archaeologist Allen Dart for “History Speaks” series at The Museum of Casa Grande (110 W.

SUMMARY:"Our America"
DESCRIPTION:This free presentation will be given by Dr. Felipe Fernández-Armesto on Friday\, March 11\, 2016 at the Center for English as a Second Language\, on the University of Arizona campus at 1100 James E. Rogers Way\, Tucson at 7:00 pm.* One of our greatest historians\, Dr. Felipe Fernández-Armesto discusses our Hispanic past with insight and wit. The United States is still typically conceived of as an offshoot of England\, with our history unfolding east to west beginning with the first English settlers in Jamestown. This view overlooks the significance of America’s Hispanic past. In his book Our America: A Hispanic History of the United States Dr. Fernández-Armesto\, a British historian of Spanish heritage and history professor at the University of Notre Dame\, recasts the pilgrimage of Hispanics in the United States as a rich and moving chronicle. With the profile of the United States increasingly Hispanic\, the importance of recovering the Hispanic dimension to our national story has never been greater. Reception follows presentation. This is a presentation of the Arnold and Doris Roland Distinguished Speaker Series made possible by the generosity of Arnold and Doris Roland.\n* This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event.

SUMMARY:“Oasis\, Coast\, and Mountain: Land/Waterscapes of Culture and History in the Arabian Gulf”
DESCRIPTION:This free presentation will be given by Professor Steven C. Caton at the 24th annual Sabbagh Lecture at Tucson Marriott University Park\, 880 E. 2nd St.\, Tucson at 7:00 PM.* Our idea of the Arabian Peninsula might be that of an uninhabited (and inhospitable) desert but this obscures a more complex reality encompassing desert oasis\, coastal port settlement\, and terraced-mountain village (to name only the most prominent zones\, each of which has not only had its own environmental and cultural history but has also been intricately connected to the other complementary zones in fascinating ways).  This lecture will look at these zones as “land-water nexuses” where water (ground water\, sea\, and rain) has been made to come into contact with land (desert sand\, beach\, and mountain) by humans to create distinctive land/waterscapes. How has land and water been managed in them historically? How is land and water being managed in them today? And what might we expect of their futures? The lecture will try to answer these questions by combining archaeology\, history\, and ethnography. Steven C. Caton is the Khaled bin Abdullah bin Abdulrahman Al Saud Professor of Contemporary Arab Studies in the Department of Anthropology at Harvard University. The University of Arizona School of Anthropology presents the annual Sabbagh Lectures on the Arab cultures of the Middle East from an anthropological perspective\, through the generosity of Drs. Entisar and Adib Sabbagh\n* This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event. For more information contact the U of A School of Anthropology at 520-621-2585 or anthro@email.arizona.edu.
