DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Vehement calls for the decolonization of archaeology
  suggest radical changes on the horizon for the discipline.  These changes
  have already begun to transform some of archaeology’s most cherished an
 d enduring institutions in recent years.  At the same time\, archeological
  studies of anti-colonial resistance have revealed surprising patterns and
  processes shared by decolonizing social movements in the past and the pre
 sent. Inspired in part by the work of postcolonial theorists\, these studi
 es have demonstrated the ways in which decolonizing events\, practices\, a
 nd behaviors can both approximate and diverge from anti-colonial rhetoric.
   Drawing upon the archaeology of the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 in the Southwe
 stern United States as a case study\, this presentation will highlight the
  contributions that archaeology has made to the study of 17thcentury anti-
 colonial resistance.  In turn\, these lessons from the past suggest new wa
 ys to think about the decolonization of our discipline today.\n\nThis pres
 entation will be on Zoom. \n\nPlease register via the following link: http
