“Turkey Feather Blankets in Ancestral Pueblo History” free
Archaeology Café online lecture by Bill Lipe and Mary Weahkee sponsored by
Archaeology Southwest (ASW), Tucson*
6 to 7 p.m. Arizona/Mountain Standard Time. Free.
For over 1,600 years, a distinctive Southwestern domestic turkey
furnished feathers for ritual uses and for making warm blankets. The birds
also became a significant food source after about 1200 CE. Bill Lipe
(Professor Emeritus, Washington State University) will discuss
archaeological evidence of the development of feather blankets and how they
contributed to Ancestral Pueblo lives, and Mary Weahkee (New Mexico Office
of Archaeological Studies), the best known present-day replicator of turkey
feather blankets, will discuss some techniques used in making them.

“La Rumorosa Rock Art of Arizona & California Respectfully
Moving Beyond Eliade & David Lewis-Williams” free online presentation by Don
Liponi for Desert Foothills Chapter, Arizona Archaeological Society, Cave
Creek, Arizona*
7 p.m. Free.
Research on the beautiful photographic images from Arizona
and southeastern California has been heavily influenced by Eliade (1951) and
David Lewis-Williams (1988) for decades. Dedicated Arizona researchers
Richard Stoffle and Michael Winkelman are quietly trying to improve our
understanding in this field, but paradigms are slow to erode. Using La
Rumorosa and its Patayan/Kumeyaay traditions for examples, Don Liponi
present some new ideas forthcoming in La Rumorosa Volume #3. This is a new
presentation.

Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought”
free Zoom online program featuring “Apache Warriors Tell Their Side”
presentation by author-historian Lynda A. Sánchez
7 to 8:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. Free.
Eve Ball (1890-1984) was a noted New Mexico chronicler of Apache,
Anglo and Hispanic history. Obtaining their trust over many years, she began
interviewing over 67 of the participants and descendants of those implacable
warriors who fought the Apache Wars. By listening to, rather than trying to
talk over, the old-timers, Eve gathered fresh information and a differing
point of view long before it was popular to do so. Historian and educator
Lynda A. Sánchez will present background about Eve and her stubborn desire
to learn from the Apaches and from their side of the fence, and will
describe what it was like working side by side with this amazing woman.

“Monumental Avenues of the Chaco World: New Research at the
Crossroads of Infrastructure, Ontology, and Power” free Zoom online
presentation by Rob Weiner sponsored by Arizona Archaeological and
Historical Society (AAHS), Tucson*
7-8:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. Free.
Researchers have puzzled over wide roadways associated with
Chaco-style Great Houses in the U.S. Southwest for over a century. Despite
frequent references to roads in Chaco scholarship, there has been relatively
little on-the-ground assessment of how roads were used, where they led, and,
more broadly, how they were implicated in the rise and fall of ancient Four
Corners society. In this talk, Rob Weiner will present recent documentation
of monumental roads throughout the Chaco World with particular attention to
small-scale, road-related architectural features and exploring evidence for
practices of offerings, processions, and races. Interpreted in light of
Pueblo and Navajo traditional knowledge, cross-cultural examples, and
perspectives from cognitive science, he will argue that roads and the ritual
practices carried out along them were key to the emergence of both regional
integration and burgeoning inequality during the Chaco era, serving as
tangible manifestations of identity, hierarchy, and cosmography inscribed on
the landscape. Robert Weiner is a PhD candidate at the University of
Colorado Boulder, Research Fellow with the Solstice Project, and Staff
Archaeologist for Cottonwood Gulch Expeditions.

Tuesday January 11, 2022: Green Valley, AZ
“Before there Was a Canoa (and After): A Brief Cultural History of
Southern Arizona’s Middle Santa Cruz Valley” free presentation by Old Pueblo
Archaeology Center’s Allen Dart to kick off Pima County Natural Resources,
Parks and Recreation’s 200th Anniversary of the San Ignacio de la Canoa Land
Grant Lecture Series, at Historic Canoa Ranch, 5375 S. I-19 Frontage Road,
Green Valley, Arizona (accessible from I-19 Canoa Road Exit 56)*
10 to 11:30 a.m. $5 per person.
For the past several thousand years the Canoa Ranch vicinity of the
Santa Cruz River valley was an oasis for hunting, gathering, farming, and
ranching, and an important stop for travelers through the dry Sonoran
Desert. In this presentation, archaeologist Allen Dart looks at evidence of
the area’s pre-Spanish residents including 11,000 to 2100 BCE Paleoindian
and Archaic hunters and gatherers, and the Hohokam and Upper Santa Cruz
Valley farming peoples who apparently coexisted there up to the 1400s. He
also will discuss Sobaípuri O’odham, Akimel O’odham, Tohono O’odham, Apache,
Jócome, and Janos Indians who were there when the first Spanish explorers
visited in the 1690s; 1691-1821 Spanish explorations and colonialism; Yaqui
Indians who arrived with the Spanish; the 1821-1854 Mexican governmental
period (during which the San Ignacio de la Canoa Land Grant was
established); and the post-1845 American period.

“Indigenous Interests” free Zoom online presentation “The Border
Wall and the Tohono O'odham Nation’s Traditions and Spiritual Freedom” by
Verlon José (Tohono O'odham), sponsored by Old Pueblo Archaeology Center, PO
Box 40577, Tucson AZ 85717
7 to 8:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. Free
Tohono O’odham elder Verlon José has written, “When I grew up living
near the U.S./Mexico border, the Tohono O’odham elders taught me that our
sacred mountains and springs – as well as our most important spiritual
ceremonies and pilgrimages – occur on both sides of the international
boundary. We traveled to areas not knowing we were in another country, but
knowing we were on the land of our ancestors and family. I learned that we
have a basic human responsibility to protect the land and the people.”
Having been both an elected leader of the Tohono O’odham and a traditional
practitioner, he has attempted to explain to the federal government how
important the continuity of Tohono O'odham sacred and religious traditions
are important not only to his people but also for the health and well-being
of the land itself. “We must continue our traditional and religious
practices to keep the world in balance,” he says. Mr. José is a Tohono
O'odham traditional religious practitioner and a former Vice Chairman of the
Tohono O'odham Nation.
Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Indigenous Interests” free Zoom
webinar series, hosted by Old Pueblo Board of Directors members Martina
Dawley (Hualapai-Diné), Maegan Lopez (Tohono O’odham), and Anabel Galindo
(Pascua Yaqui), is made possible by a grant from Arizona Humanities. The
series provides Native American presenters with a forum for discussing

Burruel Street, Tubac, Arizona*
2-3 p.m. $15 (children 6 and under free) includes all day entrance
into the park and the historic buildings.
Our image of the history of the American West, perceived in movies,
would have you believe there were only Caucasians shaping its development.
However, it had its share of African Americans, men and women, who are all
an important part of the story of the West, from the cowboys and Buffalo
Soldiers to hotel owners and school teachers, from good guys to bad guys.
Come and hear their part in the development and settlement of the West.
Snacks will be served. The lecture will take place outdoors in a large
picnic area. Bring your own chair or sit at one of the picnic tables.

“Old-Time Religion? The Salado Phenomenon in the U.S. Southwest and
Preserving Its Evidence” free presentation by archaeologist Allen Dart for
Yavapai Chapter, Arizona Archaeological Society, at the Museum of Indigenous
People, 147 N. Arizona St., Prescott, Arizona*
6:30-8 p.m. Free.
When first recognized by archaeologists in the early twentieth
century, a constellation of peculiar cultural traits in the southwestern
United States, including polychrome (three-colored) pottery, above-ground
housing often enclosed in walled compounds, and monumental architecture, was
thought to be indicative of a distinct group of people: "the Salado." As
more and more research was done and the widespread distribution of Salado
material culture became apparent, interpretations of what the Salado
phenomenon represents was debated. In this presentation archaeologist Allen
Dart illustrates pottery and other cultural attributes of the so-called
Salado culture, reviews some of the theories about the Salado, and discusses
how Salado related to the Ancestral Pueblo, Mogollon, Hohokam, and Casas
Grandes cultures of the "Greater Southwest" (the U.S. Southwest and Mexico's
Northwest). Mr. Dart also will discuss how vandalism affects archaeologists’
ability to understand the Salado phenomenon.

“Discovering the ‘Discoverers’: New Evidence of Francisco
Vasquez de Coronado in Southern Arizona” by archeologist Dr. Deni J. Seymour
for Shaw D. Kinsley Lecture series, outdoors at Tubac Presidio State
Historic Park, 1 Burruel Street, Tubac, Arizona*
2 p.m. $15 fee includes all-day admission to tour the Presidio Park.
Definitive evidence has been discovered of the 1539 and 1540
expedition of Francisco Vasquez de Coronado through Arizona. One of the
longest standing mysteries in the American Southwest is the route taken by
Fray Marcos de Niza and Francisco Vasquez de Coronado through Sonora and
Arizona. They were the first Europeans to step foot into this region in 1539
and 1540. Abundant evidence has been found in neighboring New Mexico and
also a site has been found in Texas, but their path through Arizona and
Sonora has remained a question for nearly 500 years. Recent discoveries
reveal evidence that the moment of first contact between Europeans and
Native populations in what is now the southwestern US in southern Arizona.
Among the findings is a large encampment with hundreds of the diagnostic
mid-16th century artifacts. Early 16th-century weapons like those used on
the expedition will be displayed with weapons experts on hand to discuss
their use. This is a fundraiser for Tubac Presidio. It will be outdoors,
bring your own chair. Snacks will be served.

“Third Thursday Food for Thought” free dinnertime program
featuring “Understanding Indigenous Mexico through the Maya, Mixtec, and
Aztec Codices” presentation by ethnohistorian Dr. Michael M. Brescia,
sponsored by Old Pueblo Archaeology Center, Tucson
7 to 8:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time. Free
Mexican codices are manuscripts made by precontact and early Spanish
colonial period Mesoamerican peoples. In this presentation Michael Brescia,
PhD, Curator of Ethnohistory at the Arizona State Museum and affiliated
Professor of History and Law at the University of Arizona, will discuss what
the codices tell us (and don’t tell us) about the political, economic,
social, and cultural rhythms of daily life in the Maya, Mixtec, and Aztec
cultures. After the Spanish conquest of Mexico in 1521, the codex tradition
continued under the auspices of the Spanish missionaries and provided
Indigenous peoples with a voice amid the dramatic changes that were taking
place all around them.

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

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

OLD PUEBLO ARCHAEOLOGY CENTER’S YOUTH EDUCATION PROGRAMS
Old Pueblo Archaeology Center is now taking reservations for this
fall’s youth education programs. You can find information about them at the
links listed below.
The OPEN3 Simulated Archaeological Excavation Education Program
The Old Pueblo Educational Neighborhood (OPEN) program allows
students and adults to learn what archaeology is all about by excavation in
“OPEN3,” a full-scale model of an archaeological site. OPEN3 is a simulated
excavation site that archaeologists have constructed to resemble a southern
Arizona Hohokam Indian ruin. It has full-size replicas of pre-Spanish
Contact pithouses and outdoor features that the Hohokam used for cooking,
storage, and other (sometimes surprising) purposes.
Students taking the OPEN3 field trip get to learn and practice
techniques used to excavate real archaeological sites. They are also exposed
to scientific interpretation of how ancient people constructed their houses,
what they looked like, ate, and believed in, and how they created beauty in
their lives.
For details on OPEN3 field trips visit
https://www.oldpueblo.org/programs/educational-programs/childrens-programs/o
pen3-simulated-excavation-classrooms/.
OPENOUT Archaeology Outreach Presentations
Old Pueblo’s OPENOUT (Old Pueblo Educational Neighborhood Outreach)
program offers 45-60 minute presentations by professional archaeologists.
Each presentation shows kids how some aspects of everyday life have changed
while others have stayed the same.
The hands-on materials and fun lesson plans in our OPENOUT programs
bring archaeology and the past alive for children and are a perfect prelude
for the OPEN3 simulated archaeological excavation program.
Old Pueblo also offers each of the OPENOUT programs via Zoom.
The “Ancient People of Arizona” presentation gives children an
overview of how the Ancestral Pueblo (Anasazi), Mogollon, and Hohokam
peoples lived. For details visit
https://www.oldpueblo.org/programs/educational-programs/childrens-programs/c
lassroom-outreach-ancient-people-arizona/.
The “Lifestyle of the Hohokam” program shows children how the ancient
Hohokam lived. For details visit
https://www.oldpueblo.org/programs/educational-programs/childrens-programs/c
lassroom-outreach-lifesyle-hohokam/.
The “Ancient People of Arizona” and “Lifestyle of the Hohokam”
presentations both include real and replica artifacts, plus abundant
illustrations to help children experience how pre-Contact Native Americans
of our area lived and to appreciate the arts they created.
“What is an Archaeologist?” is a program designed to give children an
idea of what archaeologists do, how they do it, and how they learn about
people through their work. This presentation includes examples of the tools
archaeologists work with, real and replica artifacts, and activities to help
children experience how archaeologists interpret the past. For details visit
https://www.oldpueblo.org/programs/educational-programs/childrens-programs/c
lassroom-outreach-archaeologist/.
Tours for Youth
Old Pueblo Archaeology Center offers guided tours to real
archaeological sites for classrooms and other organized children’s groups.
Heritage sites that can be visited in this program include a choice of the
Picture Rocks petroglyphs site (visited by the school group shown in the
accompanying photo), Los Morteros Hohokam Village, or Vista del Rio Hohokam
Village. Each youth tour is a guided visit that does not include
archaeological excavation; participants are not allowed to collect
artifacts. For details visit
