What Is CRM’s Origin Story: How Did We Get to the System We Have Now and What Does It Say about Our Future?

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Transformations in Professional Archaeology" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

How did the current regulatory archaeology system form? What lessons can we learn from how the system was set up? What do these past accounts say about the future of cultural resource management? As part of a historical review stemming from the SAA Government Affairs Committee's survey regarding the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation, we look at the past to understand what it says about how we got where we are and the future of cultural resource management.
