The brand new museo comunitario in Tihosuco, Quintana Roo, MX will host a great series of talks commemorating the Guerra Social Maya (Maya Social War/Caste War of Yucatan) in a few weeks. Excited to take part!

Super excited for the launch of the Center for Community Archaeology & Heritage here at the University of Michigan. Many of the talks will be live-streamed. Check it out! myumi.ch/qZ88Z

Highly-cited & now venerated texts were regularly published outside the flagship journals of the author's field or not with top academic presses.
Example: Clifford Geertz's, The Interpretation of Cultures, which has his chapter on "Thick Description" was published by Basic Books in 1973.

This is super cool. A potential game changer for archival research in and on Mexico
(1/7) For a while we've been working on an ambitious problem: The National Archive of Mexico #AGN holds 58 linear km of documents. Only a drop of this ‘ocean’ has been studied due to many challenges. But great news: we are now unlocking this information! A thread 🧵 (1/8) #HTR #AI #CulturalHeritage

When I finished undergrad, Damien Marley & Nas had dropped the song ‘Patience’ where, among other things, they offer a scathing critique of archaeology and its harmful irrelevance to Black and Native peoples. I decided then I’d teach a class one day with that song as the anchor. I did it y’all.
