Research, Education, and American Indian Partnerships at the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 88th Annual Meeting, Portland, OR (2023)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Research, Education, and American Indian Partnerships at the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center" at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
The Crow Canyon Archaeological Center (Crow Canyon), founded in 1983, is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to empower present and future generations by making the human past accessible and relevant through archaeological research, experiential education, and American Indian knowledge. As a core value, we believe the study of the past is an intrinsically worthwhile endeavor that creates more informed and sustainable societies. Through a better understanding of human history, we shed light on how the past can teach us about the challenges societies face throughout the world and strive to create change for the betterment of humanity. This symposium celebrates Crow Canyon’s past, present, and future by providing a backdrop to its humble beginnings and highlighting key mission accomplishments since 1983. Future directions presented here will guide southwestern research, collaborative partnerships, and public archaeology beyond current practices and provide meaningful strategic directions.
