SUMMARY:Cochise and Bascom\, How the Apache Wars Began - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:In 1861\, Lieutenant George Bascom confronted Chiricahua Apache leader Cochise demanding the return of the abducted boy\, Felix Ward (aka Mickey Free). The epic 14-day affair\, 70 soldiers surrounded by 500 Apaches rescued by the timely intervention of the cavalry\, ended in blood with hostages slain on both sides. Congress recognized Dr. Bernard Irwin\, who rode with 12 men to relieve the beleaguered soldiers\, with the first Medal of Honor. Historians have come to credit Bascom with starting a war. This talk explores the circumstances that led to the confrontation and how blame came to rest on the lieutenant. \nDoug Hocking is an independent scholar who has completed advanced studies in American history\, ethnology\, and historical archaeology. In 2015\, he won the Philip A. Danielson Award for Best Presentation. Doug\, who served in Military Intelligence and retired as an armored cavalry officer\, grew up among the Jicarilla Apache and paisanos of the Rio Arriba. Doug writes both fiction and history. His work has appeared in True West\, Wild West\, Buckskin Bulletin\, Roundup Magazine\, and the Journal of Arizona History.

SUMMARY:The Ancient Hohokam Ballgame of Arizona - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:The ancient Hohokam culture of Arizona constructed at least 200 ball courts more than 800 years ago. These oval depressions were likely used to play a ball game that originated in southern Mexico\, where the game was played with a rubber ball and had a very important role in reenacting the creation of humans in this world. This presentation will describe the recorded Hohokam ball courts located within Hohokam villages scattered throughout Arizona\, summarize what archaeologists propose they were used for\, and discuss how these public structures may relate to what is known about the Mexican rubber ball games\, which are still played today. \nDr. Todd W. Bostwick has been conducting archaeological research in the Arizona for 38 years. He has a Masters degree in Anthropology and a Ph.D. in History from Arizona State University. Dr. Bostwick was the Phoenix City Archaeologist at Pueblo Grande Museum for 21 years before his retirement in 2010\, and was a Faculty Associate at ASU and at NAU for 7 years. He is currently the Director of Archaeology at Verde Valley Archaeology Center. Dr. Bostwick has written and edited numerous articles and books on the American Southwest\, including Landscape of the Spirits: Hohokam Rock Art at South Mountain Park\, published by the University of Arizona.

SUMMARY:Who Are the Sobaipuri O'odham? - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:Who Are the Sobaipuri O’odham?: The Sobaipuri Legacy at the San Xavier/Wa:k Community \nArizona History Museum\, Tucson \nJanuary 13\, 2018\, 1 pm \nOver the last couple of decades much has been learned about the Sobaípuri O’odham who inhabited southern Arizona’s Santa Cruz and San Pedro valleys at the dawn of written history. However\, their actual history differs substantially in many ways from commonly held notions. The archaeological and ethnohistoric research of the presenters provides new perspectives on where and how they lived\, how long they occupied the valleys of southern Arizona\, their relationship to the ancient Hohokam\, and other topics. Special reference will be made to the Sobaípuri of San Xavier del Bac (Wa:k)\, where descendant populations reside. Dr. Deni Seymour is joined by her associates\, Elder Tony Burrell and Cultural Specialist David Tenario of Wa:k\, in presenting their video entitled “Who Are the Sobaípuri O’odham?” followed by interactive lectures and discussions. Through these means they strive to promote understanding of the human experience through the eyes of the Wa:k O’odham and their ancestors. Using discussions and interviews with Wa:k O’odham community members\, the video and subsequent discussions highlight the issues of how public policy\, politics\, and economic interest have influenced our understanding of the Wa:k O’odham and how their heritage has been shaped and in some cases erased. This program is sponsored by Arizona Humanities and Old Pueblo Archaeology Center. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Arizona Humanities.

SUMMARY:Epics of the American Southwest: Hopi\, Diné and Hispanic Narratives of Heroes and Heroines in Mythic Literature - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:Click here for a flyer. \nToo often the claim is heard that there is very little ancient history or literature in the United States. Nothing could be further from the truth. Whether it is the Hopi epics of the wanderings of Long Sash and the exploits of the Koshare twins; the Navajo legends that connect the cultures of the Southwest with the great late-Medieval stories of Toltec-Aztec Mexcio; or the adventures of Spanish men and women who deserted Francisco de Coronado’s expedition in protest over Coronado’s treatment of the Native peoples\, Arizona and the whole American Southwest are a treasure trove of epic narratives. This lecture stresses the social and moral messages transmitted in these oral and written texts. \nSharonah Fredrick is trilingual (Spanish-English-Portuguese) and a lecturer on Mayan\, Andean and Southwestern Native American history\, anthropology and resistance strategies; as well as\, cultural history and inter-cultural communication\, mythology\, the Kabbalah\, and religious mysticism of the 16th-18th centuries. She earned her doctorate from Stony Brook University in Hispanic and Latin American literature and has lectured in over 21 countries throughout Latin America\, North America\, the Middle East and Europe. Fredrick has published articles in Spanish\, English and Hebrew on folklore\, history\, cultural conflict and mysticism and authored full-length plays in Spanish and English\, performed in Mexico and at NY’s Julia de Burgos Theatre.
