O’Odham Pottery: Prehistoric, Historic, and Contemporary Native American Ceramic Production in the Phoenix Basin of Southern Arizona
Within the last three decades, Native communities in the United States have taken on the management of their own archaeological resources, including the establishment of Cultural Resource Management Departments. These developments have resulted in increased interactions between archaeologists and Native people, which has led to a better understanding of indigenous material culture, especially more recent remains, which for obvious reasons are more concentrated within extant Native American reservations, such as the Gila River Indian Community (GRIC). This presentation discusses research by the GRIC Cultural Resource Management Program (GRIC-CRMP), focusing on their recent contributions to the indigenous ceramic analysis process.Participants

Amerind seeks to foster and promote knowledge and understanding of the Native Peoples of the Americas through research, education, conservation, and community engagement. At Amerind, both on the ground and online, visitors will discover and scholars will advance research that showcases Indigenous voices through Amerind’s ever-growing museum collections, exhibits, art, archives, publications, and library holdings on Native Peoples, the Southwest United States, and Northern Mexico. Amerind will be a sustainable cultural institution, environmentally and financially, that roots itself in the borderlands while it extends its global reach.
