In the final episode of Season 1, we wrap up our series on Chaco and Southwest archaeology through a conversation with our fellow graduate student, Patrick Cruz. Patrick is a citizen of the Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo in New Mexico and he impresses upon us the importance of Indigenous perspectives in archaeological research and interpretations. Patrick reflects on his experiences visiting ancestral sites and being both an Indigenous person and an archaeologist.
