Donate Today to Keep SAT Free!
We are proud that Southwest Archaeology Today’s readership grows every week. It is encouraging to find that so many people want to keep up with the latest news on archaeology and preservation in the Southwest. Although the costs of assembling and hosting this ad-free service are substantial, we think it is worth it—and we hope you do, too. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to cover these costs and keep SAT free. Every gift matters, including yours. Even $5.00 will go a long way toward helping us reach our goal. Let us know how much you value SAT by making your gift today. http://www.www.archaeologysouthwest.org/how-to-help/sat/

New Exhibit Opening Highlights Continuing Controversy surrounding the Autry Center and the Southwest Museum
The Southwest Museum in Mount Washington will open its first exhibition in seven years when “Four Centuries of Pueblo Pottery”  goes on display Saturday, with free admission. Like most things involving the site, the show is fraught with uncertainty and controversy, none of it having to do with the artistry and cultural history on display. http://lat.ms/1d8MoLm – Los Angeles Times

Archaeology Café (Tucson): 3,000 Years of Migration
On Tuesday, November 5, 2013, E. Charles (Chuck) Adams will share a big-picture view informed by his decades of research in northeastern Arizona as he considers population movement over a period of about 3,000 years. Chuck’s presentation will include evidence from his recent work at Rock Art Ranch, which reveals information about middle/late archaic and Basketmaker II groups from the Utah/Arizona boundary and from the south (Mogollon Rim and southeastern Arizona). He will also review evidence of the multiple source populations that founded and settled the various Homol’ovi sites. http://bit.ly/1d9kM8U  – Archaeology Southwest
