Ethnohistorical Archaeology in Mexico
July 26 - August 30, 2009
Explore the intersection of archaeological research and art history, ethnohistory, and ethnography in an intensive program that goes from bustling Mexico City to the scenic valleys, highlands, and coasts of Oaxaca. This unique study environment will allow you to learn about the millennial indigenous cultures, the impact of European colonialism, and contemporary lifestyles and issues, through the comprehensive exploration of archaeological and historical sites, museum collections, and indigenous communities. These excursions will be integrated with classroom courses and on-site lectures delivered by experts on ethnohistorical documents, archaeological field and lab methods, and ethnographic research.     Directed by Dr. John M.D. Pohl, Curator of the Arts of the Americas at the Fowler Museum at UCLA.
