On today’s episode Jessica hosts Jon Shellenberger (Yakama), Yakama Nation Tribal Archaeologist. We talk first about his journey to become an archaeologist and ethnographer. In the second segment we talk about the work of the Yakama Nation to defend their inherent and treaty rights to fish, to protect tribal members from being prosecuted for having eagle and migratory bird feathers, and to re-establish their buffalo hunts in what is now Yellowstone National Park. Finally we talk about the projects he works on as the Yakama Tribal Archaeologist, what that looks like on a daily basis, and his larger vision for the program.Links Native Anthro Blog Mashantucket Pequot Episode Grand Canyon Episode Article: Gathering Celebrates The Anniversary of Landmark Fishing Rights Case Jon: [email protected] Contact Jessica [email protected] @livingheritageA @LivingHeritageResearchCouncil Lyle [email protected] Affiliates Wildnote Digital Marketing Course TeePublic Timeular

In this episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, the hosts have the honor of speaking with Dr. David A. Anderson of Radford University. Dr. Anderson is not only an accomplished Mesoamerican archaeologist, but also famous as a Scicomm writer and has a large twitter following. As you'll find out, Carlton used to study under Dr. Anderson and was a major influence on his career. It seems that he has grown past his days of youtube anthropology raps. David Ian Howe asks interesting questions regarding Dr. Anderson's research, while Connor self-deprecates about the host's collective status as "failed mayanists."

Archaeology is not just about buried treasure, post-excavation analysis or even what issues exist in modern academia. Sometimes in order for us to understand where we are, we must walk in someone else’s shoes or hear from their perspective. This month’s Modern Myth Episode, I speak with Arie Akkermans, art critic, lecturer and expert in classical Greek history. Arie lives in Turkey, on the Princes Islands and gives us an ear to the ground with respect to the modern and present conflicts in the middle east as well as the way in which history plays a role in justifying aggression as well as its effect on the culture of Istanbul.Nationalism is not confined to any one country and Arie speaks frankly on the ways in which Turkey has developed a layer of history that separates out what is focused on and what is discarded in the minds of the general public. Its not all serious though, we do have a wonderful interjection by Arie’ two cats, and he explains what it is like to be a cat in Istanbull. Arie writes for Hyperallergic and The Mantle, please see links for more of his work He is on Twitter @byzantinologue Host Tristan is @AnarchaeologistFollow the Network on @ArchPodNet5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE PODCAST NETWORK – DEC 2019 – Stay Tuned for extra content!Become a member today Music – Danny Boyle (Modern Rome, Adam Grant & Open Doors)Links Links Affiliate - Timeular Contact Tristan [email protected]
