Native Voices: Contributions by John Low, Alysha Edwards, Denise Pouliot, Paul Pouliot, and Others

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Silenced Rituals in Indigenous North American Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

In this session, we seek to reveal rituals that have been silenced and broaden our understandings of indigenous rituals in North American archaeology. The treatment of this topic requires a diverse set of perspectives due to its complexity as well as the ways that past rituals continue to reverberate in the present. Central to the aims of this session, we present a series of short contributions by American Indian collaborators, elders, and historians that briefly address the role of archaeology in investigations of native ritual and the contributions that archaeology can provide on this topic. Their insights help us reflect on the intellectual and practical impacts of our work on the descendants of those we study through archaeology.
