    Ponca Presence: History, Homeland, and Archaeology with Stacie Laravie - Plains 20

    In this episode of The Great Plains Archaeology Podcast, host Carlton Shield Chief Gover speaks with Stacie Laravie, citizen of the Northern Ponca of Nebraska and former Tribal Historic Preservation Officer. Stacie shares insights into the deep history and enduring resilience of the Ponca people, with a focus on the legacy of Chief Standing Bear—whose 1879 court case established, for the first time in U.S. law, that Native people are “persons” under the Constitution.Together, they explore the archaeology of Ponca homelands, the impacts of forced removal, and how material culture and oral history work together to tell the story of a people who never forgot where they came from. Stacie also reflects on her work in historic preservation and the importance of protecting sacred sites and ancestral knowledge.This episode honors the past while celebrating ongoing efforts to reclaim, preserve, and share Ponca heritage.LinksThe Archaeology of the North American Great Plains by Douglas B.

    We take the conversation we started last episode regarding vocational training of a technical workforce in CRM a little further. Bill provides an excellent perspective on the current role of the academic world in the CRM profession. How the current projections of future student populations provides both a bleak potential for growing numbers of new archaeologists and the promise for job security. This is an interesting perspective considering the current uncertainty looming in our discipline. Finally, is a rethinking of the original Airlie House an answer to what ails us?

    In this episode George talks to adhd specialist and psychotherapist Kathy Charlton about the legendary ‘father of history' Herodotus and the many neurodivergent traits they displayed. Could Herodotus, the historian who delved deep into the cultures they wrote about have been driven by neurodivergent traits such as impulsivity and hyperfocus? Was history their special interest aka stone collecting? Are George and Kathy recklessly retroactively diagnosing ancient people or simply stimulating the debate?

    Excavations at Weathertop (Amon Sûl) have uncovered significant evidence of its role as a Númenórean watchtower and the later decline of Arnor. Artefacts including weapons, pottery, and tools reflect the site's military importance before its destruction by Angmar's forces. Remains of battle and burnt structures provide insight into the final assault on the tower, while later finds suggest sporadic use by travellers and the Dúnedain. This report examines the site's stratigraphy and the material culture uncovered, offering a glimpse into the history and symbolic decline of Weathertop as part of Middle-earth's broader narrative.TLDR: Tilly and Ash excavate the fantastical site of Weathertop as found in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.Links/BibliographyBintliff, J., ed., 2012.

We explore the changes in settlement patterns, subsistence strategies, and social organization that accompanied this transition, from increased maize agriculture to the development of more permanent villages. What drove these transformations, and how did they set the foundation for later Central Plains societies?
