SUMMARY:Wild\, Weird\, Wicked Arizona - Flagstaff
DESCRIPTION:For a state that has been home to Geronimo\, Wyatt Earp\, César Chavez and Wonder Women\, you would think Arizona earned some respect. Yet achieving statehood was a 50-year struggle\, which finally ended on February 14\, 1912. Jana borrows from both her work for True West Magazine and her work for Phoenix Magazine to put the 48th state into perspective. She shares some of the secrets prissy folks would rather forget. You will learn why this small state has had an inordinate influence on American politics\, and why\, no matter what outrageous thing happens anywhere in the world\, there is bound to be an Arizona connection. This wicked\, weird and wild romp through Arizona’s colorful history will shock\, delight\, inform\, tickle and leave you wanting to learn more! \nJana Bommersbach is one of Arizona’s most honored and respected journalists.  She has won accolades in every facet of her career—investigative reporter\, magazine columnist\, television commentator and author of nationally acclaimed books. She currently writes for True West magazine\, digging up the true stories behind the popular myths\, with an emphasis on Arizona’s real history and women of the Old West. Her insight\, knowledge and wit produce exuberant\, riveting speeches that always garner rave reviews.

SUMMARY:The Ancient Hohokam Ballgame of Arizona - Flagstaff
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.
