SUMMARY:“Badger Springs Pueblo and Petroglyphs Archaeology and Geology Tour”
DESCRIPTION:TOUR FULL – WAITING LIST   On Saturday\, February 10\, 2024\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Badger Springs Pueblo and Petroglyphs Archaeology and Geology Tour” with JJ Golio and Allen Dart in Agua Fria National Monument. This tour will start at 8:30 am at Badger Springs Trailhead parking area ca. 1 mile east of Interstate-17 Exit 256 (Badger Springs)\, and end at 3:30 pm. \nAgua Fria National Monument\, located approximately 40 miles north of central Phoenix\, was established in 2000 by President Bill Clinton to protect its extensive and important cultural and natural resources. Encompassing two mesas\, the canyon of the Agua Fria River\, and the river’s tributaries including Badger Spring Wash\, the monument protects numerous archaeological sites as well as outstanding geological and biological resources. This Old Pueblo tour will visit Badger Springs Pueblo\, a 70-plus room precontact settlement perched atop a high bluff\, plus ancient boulder metates and bedrock outcrops with elaborate figurative petroglyphs. It also will stop at a historical arrastre – an ore-grinding mill in which heavy stones attached to horizontal poles radiating from a central pillar were turned by a draft animal or powered by water to drag the stones on the mill’s floor of stone to pulverize ore. Guides also will point out and interpret geologic processes in which Badger Spring Wash cut through the basalt and granodiorite to create colorful red\,  pink\, yellow\, green\, brown\, white\, dark gray\, and black formations\, some including xenoliths. \nThe request donation is $55 per person ($45 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and S’edav Va’aki Museum Foundation members) supports Old Pueblo’s education programs about archaeology and traditional cultures. Donations are due 10 days after reservation request or by 5 pm Wednesday\, February 7\, whichever is earlier: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nFlyer: 20240210(v1)BadgerSpringsPuebloPetroglyphsArchaeologyGeologyTourFlyer \nCaption: Some petroglyphs along the Badger Springs Trail\, photo courtesy of JJ Golio

SUMMARY:“Archaeological Sites of the Marana Hohokam Platform Mound Community” Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:TOUR FULL – WAITING LIST   Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Archaeological Sites of the Marana Hohokam Platform Mound Community tour\,” guided by archaeologists Paul and Suzanne Fish\, will be held on Saturday\, January 27\, 2024\, from 8:30 am to 12:00 noon. The tour group will meet at and depart from 13961 N. Sandario Rd.\, in Marana\, Arizona. \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 Hohokam agricultural field locations including specialized ones for agave cultivation\, and a secondary compound center on the Tortolita Mountains bajada. The Marana Mound site is one of the very few Hohokam Early Classic period (1150-1300 CE) 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. \nThis tour is limited to 20 people including guides. There is a requested $35 donation ($28 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and S’edav Va’aki Museum Foundation members) supports Old Pueblo’s education programs about archaeology and traditional cultures. Reservations and donation prepayment required by 5 pm Monday\, January 22. To be added to waiting list contact Old Pueblo at 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nFlyer: 20240127(v1)MaranaMoundHohokamCommunityTourFlyer \nCaption: Some ancient Hohokam structures exposed during the Arizona State Museum’s Marana Platform Mound Community excavations\, photo by Allen Dart

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation: “The Perils of Dyhydrogen Monoxide – Challenging Hembrillo Canyon 1880 Myths of the Apache Wars”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, January 18\, 2024\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s  “Third Thursday Food for Thought” presentation with historian Robert N. Watt\, PhD\, who will discuss “The Perils of Dyhydrogen Monoxide – Challenging Hembrillo Canyon 1880 Myths of the Apache Wars.” This free Zoom online presentation will be held from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time). \nThis month’s Third Thursday presenter Dr. Robert N. Watt\, University of Birmingham\, UK\, completed his trilogy on the Victorio Campaign of 1877-1881 in 2019 after almost 20 years of research. His presentation will challenge several myths concerning the two engagements between the US Army Ninth Cavalry and Apaches led by Victorio in southern New Mexico’s Hembrillo Canyon and Basin between April 5 and 7\, 1880. Historic records tell of the drinking of tainted water and overnight siege of Captain Henry Carroll’s two Ninth Cavalry companies in Hembrillo Basin on April 6-7\, 1880\, and include Lt. John Conline’s detailed report of a skirmish between Company A\, Ninth Cavalry\, and Victorio’s warriors on April 5 of that year. Archaeologist Karl Laumbach’s archaeological and archive research has shown that these accounts are inaccurate. Historian Robert Watt’s archive research supports Laumbach’s conclusions and challenges additional myths that the US Army knew the location of Victorio’s camp and that the operation to trap Victorio was undermined by Captain Carroll attacking too early. \nFollowing up on Laumbach’s work\, Bob Watt has found that the US Army’s letters and telegrams sent and received prior to this operation also tell a very different story than that which was entered into the official record after the event. He has published articles on this conflict in Small Wars and Insurgencies (2002)\, The New Mexico Historical Review (2011 and 2022)\, War in History (two articles in 2011)\, The Southwestern Historical Quarterly (2015)\, and in an article in The Journal of Military History (2016) that was awarded the Moncado Prize. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_6SsyU2ahQjiGYtBUfQG18g.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - "“Healing and Health in Hopi\, Mayan and Andean (Yauyo) Cultures: Symbiosis with Western Medicine”
DESCRIPTION:Join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation on “Healing and Health in Hopi\, Mayan and Andean (Yauyo) Cultures: Symbiosis with Western Medicine” by anthropologist Sharonah Fredrick\, PhD. This free online Zoom presentation will be held on Thursday\, December 21\, 2023 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (Mountain Standard Time). \nArchaeological finds\, colonial Spanish chronicles\, and most importantly\, the living memories of tribal elders in Central America\, South America\, and the American Southwest demonstrate not only extraordinary botanical medical knowledge\, but understandings of surgery and osteopathy that contradict stereotypes of Native peoples as always and only practicing “spiritual” medicine. It is spiritual\, mental\, and deeply physical\, and has been so for millennia. Through understanding the causal links between spiritual\, physical\, mental\, and environmental factors\, Native medicine systems\, when allied with Western holistic and conventional medicine\, have been able to produce superb results for health and well-being. How can we learn from these systems\, how can we respect Native science without appropriating it\, and what are the connections between the stories of the Cosmic Twins in Native cultures and their healing abilities for human mental health? The Hopi\, Mayan\, and Andean Yauyo cultures are all characterized by village autonomy and diversity of thought and theory regarding their own beliefs\, a trait that has previously only been associated with so-called Western societies. The importance of the Twin metaphor and its connections with healing focus on the need to find continual balance between shifting polar opposites that are life itself. In this view\, health is based on balance\, not elimination of the bad. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_y2LAfUJbRxCmfvZqWegrmg.

SUMMARY:Indigenous Interests Program to Feature “Wa’alupe: Yaqui Village in Phoenix Urban Sprawl”
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Indigenous Interests” program will feature “Wa’alupe: Yaqui Village in Phoenix Urban Sprawl” presentation by Octaviana V. Trujillo (Yaqui)\, PhD. This free Zoom online will be held on Tuesday\, November 14\, 2023 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (Mountain Standard Time). \nYaqui Indian families came from Sonora\, Mexico\, to Arizona’s Salt River Valley in the 1880s to labor in the agricultural fields\, railroads\, and mines. They formed their villages on the outskirts of cities. This is how Guadalupe came to be. We have been known to be hard workers\, strong minded and of good heart. The Tempe community knew how important we were to the growth and sustainability of their city. Many today remember how Guadalupe was so far away from any city\, we had so many open spaces to play and have our fiestas for baptisms\, weddings\, birthdays\, and ceremonies. There was no Interstate 10 or the largest shopping mall of Arizona.  Just cotton fields\, orchards\, Japanese flower gardens\, a small crop duster airfield and our monte near us. Many good memories of play\, smells\, and place. This presentation will take you to the beginning of our village\, now our cemetery. Guadalupe is still here\, it has persisted and flourished during the most challenging times; the people will make sure it endures. \nOctaviana Trujillo is founding Chair and Professor Emerita in the Department of Applied Indigenous Studies at Northern Arizona University and former Chairwoman of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona. Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Indigenous Interests” free Zoom webinar series provides Native American presenters with a forum for discussing issues important to Indigenous peoples today. The series is hosted by Old Pueblo board of directors members Martina Dawley (Hualapai-Diné)\, Anabel Galindo (Yaqui)\, and Maegan Lopez and Samuel Fayuant (Tohono O’odham). \nTo register for the program go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_b75fQ5VDRbmN31tcK_LEZQ. For more information contact Old Pueblo at info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. \nFlyer: 20231114(v1)IndigenousInterests_OctavianaTrujillo_Wa’alupe_YaquiVillageInPhoenixUrbanSprawl (1) \nCaption: 1909 – Old Guadalupe Yaqui Matachini Dancers\, photo courtesy of Octaviana V.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Program Presents “Scientific Evidence for Tonto Basin Salado Polychrome Pottery Production and Exchange”
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought program will feature “Scientific Evidence for Tonto Basin Salado Polychrome Pottery Production and Exchange” by Mary F. Ownby\, PhD. This free Zoom online presentation\, sponsored by Old Pueblo Archaeology Center\, will be held on Thursday\, October 19\, 2023 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time\, same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nThe importance of Salado Polychrome pottery for understanding fourteenth-century population dynamics in the Southwest cannot be underestimated. This ware was clearly significant in the assimilation and adaptation of migrant groups into local populations in southern Arizona and New Mexico. Arizona’s Tonto Basin was an important area of Salado Polychrome production and exchange. Chemical (neutron activation analysis) and petrographic analyses of both decorated and utility ware vessels from six Tonto Basin sites illustrate the complexity of Salado Polychrome production and consumption. The results show there were multiple pottery production locations (though one is clearly dominant) and significant exchange among sites in the basin. The use of raw materials atypical of Hohokam ceramic traditions may indicate some Salado Polychrome was made by migrant potters. This study is an example of how Salado Polychrome pottery research continues to clarify how migrant groups settled into their new homes and utilized pottery as a form of cultural connection amongst themselves and their local friends. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_i3aLfJ0wTr2i-89axO3QCQ.  For more information contact Old Pueblo at info@oldpueblo.org or 520-798-1201. \nFlyer: 20231019(v1)ThirdThursday_MaryOwnby_ TontoBasinSaladoPolychrome \nCaption: Thin section petrographic image in cross-polarized light\, and Cliff Polychrome (a Salado type) bowl\, photos courtesy of Mary Ownby

SUMMARY:“Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities” Tour
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, October 7\, 2023\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) Communities” car-caravan cultural sites tour with Yoeme traditional culture specialist Felipe S. Molina. This tour will begin at 8:00 a.m. starting in the Santa Cruz River Park ramada at 1317 W. Irvington Road\, Tucson (on south side of Irvington just west of the Santa Cruz River)\, and will end around 1:00 p.m. \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 late 19th and early 20th centuries. 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 (Big Mesquite) Village\, the San Martin Church and plaza in the 39th Street Community (Barrio Libre)\, Pascua\, Ili Hu’upa\, Wiilo Kampo\, and his home community of Yoem Pueblo including its San Juan Church and plaza. \nThere is a requested $35 donation ($28 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Friends of S’edav Va’aki Museum members) helps cover Old Pueblo’s tour expenses and supports its education programs about archaeology and traditional cultures.

SUMMARY:“Autumn Equinox Tour to Los Morteros and Picture Rocks Petroglyphs Sites”
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Autumn Equinox Tour to Los Morteros and Picture Rocks Petroglyphs Sites” with archaeologist Allen Dart will depart on Saturday\, September 23\, 2023 at 8:00 a.m. from near Silverbell Rd. and Linda Vista Blvd.\, Marana. This tour will end 12:00 p.m. noon. \nThe 2023 autumn equinox occurs on September 23 at 12:50 am Arizona/Mountain Standard Time (same as Pacific Daylight Time; Sept. 23\, 6:50 am Greenwich Mean Time). To celebrate the equinox day (but not the exact time!) and explore ancient people’s recognition of equinoxes and other calendrical events\, archaeologist Allen Dart (Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s executive director) leads this tour to Los Morteros\, an ancient village site that includes a Hohokam ballcourt\, bedrock mortars\, and other archaeological features; and to Picture Rocks\, where ancient petroglyphs include a solstice and equinox calendar marker\, dancing human-like figures\, whimsical animals\, and other rock symbols made by Hohokam Indians between 800 and 1100 CE. An equinox calendar petroglyph at Picture Rocks exhibits a specific interaction with a ray of sunlight on the morning of each equinox regardless of the hour and minute of the actual celestial equinox\, so participants in this tour will see that sunlight interaction with the calendar glyph unless clouds block the sunlight. \nThere is a $35 requested donation ($28 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Friends of S’edav Va’aki Museum members) helps cover Old Pueblo’s tour expenses and supports its education programs about archaeology and traditional cultures. Donations are due 10 days after reservation request or by 5 pm Thursday September 21\, whichever is earlier: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nFlyer: 20230923(v1)LosMorteros&PictureRocksAutumnEquinoxTourFlyer \nCaption: Equinox “sun dagger” on spiral petroglyph at Picture Rocks site\, Pima County\, Arizona\, photo by Tom Herrick

SUMMARY:“The Historical George McJunkin Reimagined through His Archaeological Sites” Presentation
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, September 21\, 2023\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” Zoom online program will feature “The Historical George McJunkin Reimagined through His Archaeological Sites” by applied anthropologist and archaeologist Brian W. Kenny. This free Zoom presentation will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time\, same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nGeorge McJunkin\, who is widely known today as the original discoverer of a fossil bone deposit exposed after a devastating 1908 flood in Wild Horse Arroyo near Folsom\, New Mexico\, died in Folsom in January 1922. The “Folsom site” he discovered turned out to be where archaeologists in 1927 first confirmed the antiquity of humans in the Americas based on direct association of in-situ stone tools and Pleistocene bison bones. The Folsom site has been examined in popular and academic works\, but among professional archaeologists there are generalized and continuing disputes regarding the type and extent of credit and recognition McJunkin should receive for our early historical understanding of the Folsom site. McJunkin was born a slave in Texas\, was emancipated\, and left home as a young man to become a cowboy in west Texas. He learned his trade from Mexican vaqueros and was known for superior cowboy skills and some wild adventures as he worked in the big cattle outfits that moved stock up from Texas\, New Mexico\, and Colorado to the transcontinental Overland Route. After the Colorado and Southern Railroad was completed in 1888 he settled near Folsom\, patented a homestead\, built a house in town\, and worked for local ranchers. He was well respected by the local community and became a ranch foreman and leader of Black and Mexican cowboys working for New Mexican ranchers.  During his time there\, McJunkin built a number of ranch facilities\, many of which are now obsolete\, abandoned\, or reused in alternate ways. These sites\, their contents\, and the nature of their construction\, use\, and abandonment hold the key to investigating McJunkin from alternate perspectives. From 2021-2023\, a century after McJunkin’s passing\, Brian Kenny and colleagues initiated archival\, ethnographic\, and archaeological research in the Folsom community. In Old Pueblo’s September Third Thursday presentation\, Kenny will tell how the members of “Team McJunkin” have visited and documented known McJunkin sites using basic methodologies of community ethnography\, archival research\, landscape scale characterization\, and archaeological survey\, and how team members are currently reviewing their field results and preparing for journal publication. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_0SwzVEeWTdGHvp1Qyh_Wsg.

SUMMARY:“The 1541 O’odham Annihilation of Vázquez de Coronado’s Southern Arizona Townsite and Other New Coronado-Era Discoveries” Online Presentation
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, August 17\, 2023\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” program will feature “The 1541 O’odham Annihilation of Vázquez de Coronado’s Southern Arizona Townsite and Other New Coronado-Era Discoveries” presentation by archaeologist Deni J. Seymour\, Ph.D. This free Zoom presentation will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 pm ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time (same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nThe Arizona Coronado Project continues to astound as expedition sites are found in improbable valleys\, as evidence reveals encounters with unexpected Native groups\, artifacts are uncovered in Arizona that are unknown from other Coronado sites\, and excavated archaeological features demonstrate the beginnings of a permanent European settlement. There is also clear evidence of the battle\, described in documents\, that annihilated the region’s first Spanish townsite and contributed to the termination of the 1539-1542 Coronado expedition as a whole. Dr. Deni Seymour is an award-winning author of seven books and over 110 articles. In addition to her previous discoveries of the site where Apache Chief Juh ambushed US Army Lt. Cushing the 1871 and several important Spanish colonial period sites\, recently she has identified five archaeological sites of the Coronado expedition on four stream drainages. \nAt Dr. Seymour’s request\, Old Pueblo will not post or distribute a recording of this presentation.\nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_wwC9iKfWROOXPQM6e-OWYg.

SUMMARY:Tour to the Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill and the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research
DESCRIPTION:TOUR FILLED – WAITING LIST   On Saturday\, July 22\, 2023\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Archaeology\, Paleontology\, and Environmental Sciences Laboratories Tour” will meet in the courtyard at Mercado San Agustín\, 100 S. Avenida del Convento\, Tucson at 8:00 a.m. The tour will end around 12:30 p.m. \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 (LTRR)\, both administered by The University of Arizona (UA). The Tumamoc Desert Laboratory 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. The Tree-Ring Lab also has a venerable record of research in archaeology\, astronomy\, and environmental sciences\, created in 1937 by the founder of dendrochronology as a science: UA Professor of Astronomy Andrew Ellicott Douglass. Tour presenters and guides will include archaeologists Paul and Suzanne Fish\, the Tumamoc Lab’s Robert Villa and Lynne Schepartz\, and LTRR docent Donna MacEachern. The drive from the Mercado San Agustín meeting place to the Tumamoc Lab is limited to five vehicles so carpooling is required and no more than 20 people can attend. After returning to the Mercado\, all participants can take their own vehicles in a caravan to the LTRR. \nThere is a requested donation of $35 ($28 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Friends of S’edav Va’aki Museum members). Donation prepayments are required 10 days after reservation request or by 5 pm Wednesday July 19\, whichever is earlier: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nFlyer: 20230722(v2)TumamocDesertLab-TreeRingLabTourFlyer \nCaption for 1st photo:  Tumamoc Desert Laboratory photo from the Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill website\nCaption for 2nd photo: Photo by John Kay of giant sequoia tree cross-section at The University of Arizona’s Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research \n

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - “’O’odham Place Names: Meanings\, Origins and Histories”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, July 20\, 2023\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation featuring “’O’odham Place Names: Meanings\, Origins and Histories” by Harry J. Winters\, Jr.\, Ph.D. This free Zoom online program will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time\, same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nWhen he was 14 or 15 years old\, Harry Winters\, Jr.\, came across John D. Mitchell’s 1953 book Lost Mines and Buried Treasures along the Old Frontier. Mitchell’s tales inspired him to become a geological engineer in the mining industry\, partly because of his interest in mathematics\, physics\, geology and engineering\, but also because mining geology (which he calls “modern prospecting”) offered the opportunity to roam the deserts and mountains. He began prospecting and camping in the Arizona desert\, and in 1956 he and his friend Ted McIntyre drove into the  Tohono O’odham Nation lands (then known as the Papago Indian Reservation). Eventually their 1947 Plymouth got stuck in a narrow wash and an ’O’odham man came over to see what had happened. That fellow\, Enos Miguel\, didn’t speak English and the boys didn’t speak ’O’odham\, but Enos could see what was needed so walked over to his house\, brought out a shovel and some boards\, and soon Harry and Ted were on their way. Enos was Harry’s first of many O’odham friends made over the next six-plus decades. Combining those friendships with his interest in geology and Native place names\, Harry learned the ’O’odham language\, spoke with lots of ’O’odham about their knowledge of the landscape\, and eventually authored the 1\,002-page (not counting the 56 pages in the table of contents and other front matter) tome ’O’odham Place Names: Meanings\, Origins and Histories\, Arizona and Sonora\, Second Edition (2020\, SRI Press\, Tucson). In this month’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation\, Dr. Harry Winters\, Jr.\, recounts some of his travels and shares some of his deep knowledge of the ’O’odham landscape lore on both sides of the modern US-Mexico border. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_e0QYkHObRfCvES3XfFiESg.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation - "A Photo Essay of the Apache Surrender”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, June 15\, 2023\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation featuring “A Photo Essay of the Apache Surrender” by historian Bill Cavaliere. This free Zoom online program will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time\, same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nUsing a comparison of old photographs with recent ones taken of the same places\, Bill Cavaliere will discuss the Chiricahua Apaches and their early frontier photographers\, with the emphasis on C. S. Fly\, Ben Wittick\, and A. Frank Randall. Cavaliere travelled far and wide to locate the scenes where the 1800s shots were taken. Some were very easy to find\, such as the photographs taken at Fort Bowie\, while others were more difficult\, especially ones taken by Tombstone photographer C. S. Fly in Cañon de los Embudos in northern Sonora\, Mexico\, which entailed modern-day driving on rough four-wheel-drive roads through remote areas disputed by rival drug cartels. Bill’s obsession was finding the location of Fly’s famous “Council Photo” that depicts Geronimo and other hostile Apaches negotiating peace terms with General George Crook and his soldiers. \nTo register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_-FSKZAk5RIeSw_mIj9vc7Q.

SUMMARY:Coyote Ruin\, Fitzmaurice Ruin\, and Museum of Indigenous People Tour
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 20 and Sunday\, May 21\, 2023\, join Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Coyote Ruin\, Fitzmaurice Ruin\, and Museum of Indigenous People” tour with archaeologist Andrew Christenson\, PhD\, in Prescott and Prescott Valley\, Arizona. The tour will begin on Saturday at 11:30 and end on Sunday 12:00 noon. There is a requested donation of $99 donation per person ($80 for members of Old Pueblo Archaeology Center or Friends of Pueblo Grande Museum)\, which covers all site entry fees and Old Pueblo’s expenses. \nArchaeologist Dr. Andy Christenson leads this tour to two archaeological sites of west-central Arizona’s Prescott culture and to one of Arizona’s oldest anthropology museums. For the Coyote Ruin in Prescott\, which was occupied from perhaps the 900s until after 1300 CE\, excavations in the 1920s are the earliest in the Prescott area for which we have documentation. In 1998 and later additional excavations were conducted in 11 of Coyote’s 26 masonry rooms and two of its 10 pit structures\, and many agricultural and water-control features were recorded. The Fitzmaurice Ruin on and near a prominent hilltop in Prescott Valley includes a 27-room pueblo and outlying structures dating between 1140 and 1300\, stone-outlined areas interpreted as terraced and possibly canal-irrigated garden plots\, and at least one petroglyph. Prescott’s Museum of Indigenous People\, originally the Smoki Museum\, is a complex of stone buildings completed in 1935 by a non-Native\, community-minded social group\, the “Smoki People\,” with assistance from Depression-era work program participants. Participants are responsible for their own transportation\, lodging\, and meals. \nDonations are due 10 days after reservation request or by 5 pm Monday May 15\, whichever is earlier: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org. \nFlyer: 20230520-0521(v2)_Coyote&Fitzmaurice&MuseumOfIndigenousPeopleTourFlyer \n  \n

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation: “Making and Breaking Waves: Feminist Thought in Anthropology’s History”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, May 18\, 2023\, Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation will feature “Making and Breaking Waves: Feminist Thought in Anthropology’s History” presentation by anthropologist Ruth Burgett Jolie\, Ph.D. This free Zoom online program will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 pm (ARIZONA/Mountain Standard Time\, same as Pacific Daylight Time). \nIn some circles\, “the F-word” is “feminism”- a dirty word not to be discussed in good company. Yet\, feminism\, the political movement advocating for women’s rights on the grounds of political\, social\, and economic equality\, is an important concept to discuss as it is influenced by the social context in which we live. Feminism has impacted our day-to-day lives as well as anthropology as a discipline. This presentation provides a brief history of feminism in the United States\, considers how feminism has impacted anthropology\, and concludes with a discussion of how anthropology has impacted feminism. Dr. Ruth Burgett Jolie is Associate Curator of Education at the Arizona State Museum and affiliated Associate Professor of Anthropology in the School of Anthropology at the University of Arizona. \n                To register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_O9eeHOzDTFqHrcPrNGiaBw.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Food for Thought Presentation: “The Civilian Conservation Corps in Southern Arizona and the Creation of a Transformed Landscape”
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, April 20\, 2023 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s Third Thursday Food for Thought presentation will feature “The Civilian Conservation Corps in Southern Arizona and the Creation of a Transformed Landscape” by archaeologist William B. Gillespie. This free Zoom online program will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. \nThe Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) is widely recognized as one of the most successful of President Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal programs that helped bring the country out of the depths of the Great Depression of the 1930s.  Some 3.5 million unemployed young men enrolled to work outdoors to protect forests\, alleviate erosion\, and develop the infrastructure of thousands of parks. The CCC was particularly active in southeastern Arizona\, with nearly 40 camps\, each occupied by approximately 100-200 enrollees\, in use at various times between 1933 and 1942.  Several agencies took advantage of CCC work crews to make improvements: The US Forest Service focused on fire prevention and constructing new roads\, the National Park Service and Arizona’s Pima County emphasized developing infrastructure for recreation\, the newly established federal Soil Conservation Service performed extensive erosion-control work\, and the less well-documented Indian Division of the CCC employed many O’odham workers to develop new water sources for livestock. Throughout the parks\, forests\, and deserts of the region\, the legacy of the CCC is still very much in evidence. Guest speaker Bill Gillespie is a retired Coronado National Forest archaeologist. \n                To register for the Zoom webinar go to https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_thTCtZ4TTN2Ie7V-HF7spw.
