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. 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.\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. \nHistorical map showing Apache territory south of the Gila River\, from pen-and-ink and watercolor map of internal provinces of New Spain\, adapted from a 1771 map produced by José de Urrútia and Nicolas de la Fora\, courtesy of Library of Congress and Jim Turner.

SUMMARY:“Chukui Kawi/Cerro Prieto: Yoeme Sacred Mountain\, Hohokam Trincheras\, and Petroglyphs” Tour
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, October 27\, 2018\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center is offering the “Chukui Kawi/Cerro Prieto: Yoeme Sacred Mountain\, Hohokam Trincheras\, and Petroglyphs” car-caravan cultural sites tour with Yoeme traditional culture specialist Felipe S. Molina and archaeologist Allen Dart. Participants will be meeting at 8:00 a.m. at the McDonald’s restaurant located at 13934 N. Sandario Rd.\, Marana\, Arizona (accessible from Interstate 10 Exit 236 (Marana). \nCerro Prieto (Spanish for ‘Dark Hill’)\, a volcanic peak that rises about 900 feet above the surrounding plain in the Ironwood Forest National Monument northwest of Tucson\, is a sacred place known to the Yoeme (Yaqui Indians) as Chukui Kawi (‘Black Mountain’). Situated in close proximity to the Inscription Hill and Pan Quemado petroglyph sites\, Cerro Prieto also s one of the largest and most complex U.S. archaeological sites featuring trincheras – massive rock-work terraces built on steep hillsides. The site’s archaeological features were constructed and used by the Hohokam culture during the Tanque Verde phase (AD 1150-1300) and include house foundations\, waffle gardens\, check dams\, trail systems\, petroglyphs\, rock walls\, talus pits\, and a stone source used to produce agave knives\, suggesting its use for a variety of residential functions\, ceremonies\, and agriculture. During this trip\, Yoeme traditional culture specialist Felipe Molina will discuss the significance of Chukui Kawi to the Yoeme\, and archaeologist Al Dart will lead us to some of the Cerro Prieto trincheras and the nearby Pan Quemado and Inscription Hill petroglyphs.\nA $45 donation per participant ($36 for members of Old Pueblo Archaeology Center & Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary) helps cover Old Pueblo’s tour expenses and supports education programs on archaeology and Yoeme traditional culture. Reservations and donation prepayments required by 5 p.m. Wednesday October 24: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nSome petroglyphs at Inscription Hill photographed by Tom Herrick.

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:Marana Hohokam Platform Mound Archaeological Community Tour
DESCRIPTION:Ancient Hohokam structures were exposed during the Arizona State Museum’s Marana Platform Mound Community excavations in 2003\, photo by Allen Dart. \nTOUR FILLED – WAITING LIST  On Saturday October 6\, 2018\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Marana Hohokam Platform Mound Archaeological Community Tour” will be guided by archaeologists Paul and Suzanne Fish departing from Circle K convenience store\, 13961 N. Sandario Rd.\, Marana\, Arizona. From 8:30 a.m to noon\, $30 donation ($24 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary members). \nUniversity of Arizona archaeologists Dr. Paul R. Fish and Dr. Suzanne K. Fish lead this tour to selected archaeological sites in one of southern Arizona’s largest ancient Hohokam communities. Our visit will include the Marana Platform Mound site (which was surrounded by 40+ residential compounds)\, a sampling of agricultural field locations including specialized ones for agave cultivation\, and a secondary compound center on the upper-basin slope of the Tortolita Mountains. The Marana Mound site is one of the very few Hohokam Early Classic period (AD 1150-1300) villages that has wholly escaped the destruction resulting from modern agriculture and urbanization and where adobe-wall remnants can be clearly identified on the surface. We also will visit the location where a segment of the nearly seven-mile-long Marana Mound site canal was identified from surface and excavated remains before that area was included in a modern housing development. These site visits will provide a basis for understanding the social and economic processes during the Early Classic period\, when processes of Hohokam centralization and population aggregation greatly accelerated. \nTour is limited to 20 people including guides. Reservations and donation prepayment required by 5 p.m. Thursday October 4. 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \n20181006(v1)MaranaMoundHohokamCommunityTourFlyer (flyer)

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. 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. \n

SUMMARY:“Archaeology\, Paleontology\, and Environmental Sciences Laboratories Tour”
DESCRIPTION:Tumamoc Desert Laboratory photo from theDesert Laboratory on Tumamoc. \nTOUR FULL – WAITING LIST: On Saturday July 14\, 2018\, join us for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Archaeology\, Paleontology\, and Environmental Sciences Laboratories Tour” starting in the courtyard at Mercado San Agustin\, 100 S. Avenida del Convento\, Tucson. This tour will be from 8 a.m. to noon: $25 donation ($20 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary members). \nThis Old Pueblo Archaeology Center summer tour visits two TOO-COOL environmental-science laboratories in Tucson – the Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill and the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research\, both administered by The University of Arizona (UA). In the first tour segment\, Dr. Ben Wilder will lead us through the Tumamoc Desert Laboratory\, which began its existence in 1903 as the Carnegie Desert Botanical Laboratory established by the Carnegie Institution of Washington and is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places. In 1940 the Carnegie Institution sold it to the US Forest Service for $1\, and in 1956 the UA bought it from the U.S. government\, promising in the deed to use it solely for research and education. During its 115 years of existence the Tumamoc Hill and Desert Laboratory staff have been on the cutting edge in the fields of paleontology and desert ecology. \nGiant sequoia tree cross-section atthe Laboratory of Tree-Ring Researchfrom The University of Arizona website. \n  \nThe UA Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (LTRR) also has a venerable record of research in archaeology\, astronomy\, and environmental sciences. Created in 1937 by UA Professor of Astronomy Andrew Ellicott Douglass\, founder of the sccience of dendrochronology\, the LTRR has helped establish many other dendrochronology and tree-ring science labs around the world and remains a foremost facility in environmental research\, teaching\, and outreach\, as we will see as docent Randall Smith leads us through the tree-ring laboratory.\nThe first tour segment to Tumamoc Hill is limited to six vehicles so carpooling is required and no more than 24 people (in addition to Old Pueblo’s tour coordinator Allen Dart) can register depending on whether we can designate six 4-passenger vehicles for carpooling from Mercado San Agustin to the Desert Lab. Then after we leave there we will return to the Mercado so carpoolers can get back into their own vehicles\, and we will caravan from the Mercado to the LTRR for the second tour segment. Reservations and donation prepayments are required by 5 p.m. Wednesday July 11: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org.\n**** IF YOU WOULD LIKE US TO EMAIL YOU A FLYER with color photos about the above-listed activity please reply with “Send flyer for July 14” in your email subject line.

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. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. \n20180315(v2)ThirdThursday-ElCaminoDelDiablo-ButchFarabee

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:Sears Point and Painted Rocks Petroglyphs\, and Gatlin Hohokam Site Tour
DESCRIPTION:TOUR FULL – WAITING LIST STARTED. On Saturday\, December 9\, 2017\, archaeologist Dr. Aaron M. Wright will guide guests on a tour of Sears Point and Painted Rocks Petroglyphs\, and the Gatlin Hohokam site. The tour group will meet at 10:00 am at Interstate 8\, Exit 78 (Spot Road)\, approximately 39 miles west of Gila Bend\, Arizona. Fee: $45 ($36 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary members). \nPhotograph of a Sears Point petroglyph panel courtesy of Aaron M. Wright \nTour leader Aaron Wright\, a Preservation Archaeologist with Tucson’s Archaeology Southwest organization\, has research interests in paleoclimatology\, indigenous Southwest ritualism and religion\, and rock art. He will lead us first to see the seemingly countless petroglyphs and geoglyphs (intaglios; ground sculptures) on Sears Point\, the northwestern escarpment of the Sentinel Plain (a vast basaltic field dotted with low shield volcanoes) located along the lower Gila River between Gila Bend and Yuma\, Arizona. Sears Point is renowned for its density of petroglyphs as well as their unique style attributed to the Patayan culture tradition (which is believed to be ancestral to contemporary Yuman- and O’odham-speaking communities). The site is adorned with thousands of petroglyphs\, and several geoglyphs\, and also is traversed by seemingly endless ancient trails. We’ll also get to see remnants of the South Gila Canal (a defunct irrigation venture from the 1880s) at and near Sears Point\, after which we’ll caravan to the Painted Rocks petroglyphs site  northwest of Gila Bend and the Gatlin Platform Mound site on the outskirts of Gila Bend\, touring until around 4:30. Tour participants interested in having dinner together before returning home can reconvene at Sophia’s Mexican Restaurant in Gila Bend at 5 p.m.\nReservations and prepayment required by Wednesday\, December 6: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \n20171209(v3)SearsPointPetroglyphsTourFlyer

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. This program was made possible by Arizona Humanities. \n20171116(V3)ThirdThursday_DeniSeymour_WhoAreTheSobaipuri (link to flyer)

SUMMARY:“Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities” Cultural Sites Tour
DESCRIPTION:Pascua Yoeme community circa 1938\, photograph courtesy of the Southwest Center\, The University of Arizona \nOn Saturday\, October 28\, 2017\, this car-caravan cultural sites tour with Yoeme traditional culture specialist Felipe S. Molina\, will start at the Bwe’u Hu’upa (Big Mesquite) site in the Santa Cruz River Park at 1317 W. Irvington Road\, Tucson (on south side of Irvington just west of the Santa Cruz River). Time: 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.; $25 ($20 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary members). \nFelipe S. Molina was taught the indigenous language\, culture\, and history of the Yoemem (Yaqui Indians) by his maternal grandfather and grandmother\, his grandmother’s cousin\, and several elders from Tucson’s original Pascua Village. A steady stream of Yoeme migrated into southern Arizona to escape the Mexi­can government’s war on and deportations of the Yoeme in the 1890s and early 1900s. By 1940 there were about 3\,000 Yoeme in Arizona\, mostly living in the well-established villages of Libre (Barrio Libre) and Pascua (Barrio Loco) in Tucson\, Yoem Pueblo and Wiilo Kampo in Marana\, and others near Eloy\, Somerton\, Phoenix\, and Scottsdale. Mr. Molina will lead this tour to places settled his­torically by Yoeme in the Tucson and Marana areas including Bwe’u Hu’upa Village\, the San Martin Church and plaza in the 39th Community (Barrio Libre)\, Pascua\, Ili Hu’upa\, Wiilo Kampo\, and his home community of Yoem Pueblo including its San Juan Church and plaza.\nReservations and prepayment required by Wednesday October 25: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nLink to flyer: 20171028(v2)Tucson&MaranaYoeme(YaquiIndian)CommunitiesFlyer

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.
