Symposium Title:
Intersections and Exchanges: Culture Contact Research in California
Symposium Chair: Barbara Voss ([log in to unmask])
Symposium Abstract:
'Culture contact' archaeology emerged during the Columbian Quincentenary
as an alternative framework for archaeological studies of colonization and
its outcomes. Today, culture contact research also forges intersections
and exchanges among scholars by schallenging the divide between historic
and prehistoric archaeology, by fostering interdisciplinary bridges
between archaeology and other fields, and by encouraging dialogue and
collaboration among archaeologists and native peoples. Through diverse
presentations ranging from focused case-studies to theoretical queries,
this symposium explores current archaeological research on 'culture
contact' in California.
