The Southern Tewa Experience
Explore Archaeological Sites and Oral Histories That Link
Ancient and Contemporary Tewa Pueblo People of New Mexico
May 19–25, 2013
During the thirteenth century A.D., Pueblo people from the Mesa Verde region settled in the Galisteo Basin and adjacent areas of the northern Rio Grande valley—and in the process became the Tewa-speaking Pueblo people whose descendants still live in the area today.
On this fascinating exploration, we'll examine archaeological, linguistic, and oral history evidence for connections between ancestral and contemporary Tewa peoples.
- By special permission, tour rarely visited ancestral Pueblo archaeological sites on public and private lands in the northern Rio Grande valley of New Mexico
- Explore Pecos National Historical Park, the "Gateway to the Plains" and a cultural crossroads for Pueblo, Plains, Spanish, and Euro-American peoples over the centuries
- Take a special guided tour of Puye Cliff Dwellings, and enjoy a traditional dinner at nearby Santa Clara Pueblo
SCHOLARS:
Crow Canyon's Lightfoot Research Chair Scott Ortman and traditional Tewa leaders and scholars Tessie Naranjo and her nephew Porter Swentzell, both of Santa Clara Pueblo
