One of Great Note: Honoring the Career of Elizabeth Scott

Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2017

At just 15 years old Elizabeth Scott discovered the field of archaeology and never looked back, and for that we could not be more grateful. Now, after an illustrious career, former students and colleagues gather to honor this remarkable woman. Please join us as we recall our favorite memories and present research inspired by her contributions to the field. Dr. Elizabeth Scott created a career chasing the roots of inequality and bringing history to life in hopes that, one day, these inequalities can be eliminated. As a multi-faceted, complex scholar, Dr. Elizabeth Scott is unique in the depth and breadth of her work, most notably French colonial studies, zooarchaeology, and Marxian and feminist archaeology. These papers demonstrate how she will continue to impact the field of historical archaeology for generations to come.
