Using Archaeology to Follow Meskwaki Leaders across Pre-Statehood Iowa
<p>Cindy Peterson shares the stories and artifacts that uncover the history of Meskwaki migrations in the early 1800s. She’ll use her 20+ years of research and first-hand experience in the field of archaeology to bring to life the culture, ideas, and implications of the Meskwaki’s migrations westward—moves that were sometimes chosen for themselves and other times imposed by the U.S. government under the pretense of political treaties.</p><p>The University of Iowa’s Office of the State Archaeologist (OSA) investigated several sites related to two important 1830s-1840s Meskwaki leaders: Chief Poweshiek and Chief Wacoshashe. Their villages moved from the Mississippi River to Rochester, Iowa City, the Coralville Reservoir, South Amana, the Skunk River, southwest Iowa, (possibly) Kansas, and finally, Tama County. While much remains to be discovered, a glimpse into village movements and layouts has been discerned through OSA’s archaeological work at trading posts, villages, winter camps, and a maple sugaring camp.</p><p>This event is free and open to the public.</p> 2020-02-06 14:30:00 -0600

On an ordinary sunny morning in 2012, a series of explosions level a chemical plant on the outskirts of Las Vegas. The shock waves are felt as far away as Fremont Street. Homes and businesses suffer broken windows and caved-in roofs. Hundreds are injured, and eight employees of the plant are unaccounted for, presumed dead.</span></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="ai2dp" data-offset-key="320np-0-0"><div data-offset-key="320np-0-0"><span data-offset-key="320np-0-0"><br data-text="true"></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="ai2dp" data-offset-key="ef0m2-0-0"><div data-offset-key="ef0m2-0-0"><span data-offset-key="ef0m2-0-0"><span data-text="true">One of the missing is maintenance technician Andrew Huntley, a husband and father who is an orbital force in the novel as those who loved him grapple with his loss. Andrew’s best friend, Russell Martin—an anxiety-plagued bartender who calms his nerves with a steady inflow of weed—misses him more than he might a brother. Meanwhile Emma, Russell’s wife—a blackjack dealer at a downtown casino—tries to keep her years-long affair with Andrew hidden. Simon Addison, a manager at the plant who could have saved Andrew’s life, is afflicted by daily remorse, combined with a debilitating knowledge of his own cowardice. And then there’s Maddie, Andrew’s only child, a model high-school student whose response to the tragedy is to experiment with shoplifting and other deviant behavior.</span></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="ai2dp" data-offset-key="8udr4-0-0"><div data-offset-key="8udr4-0-0"><span data-offset-key="8udr4-0-0"><br data-text="true"></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="ai2dp" data-offset-key="bt73v-0-0"><div data-offset-key="bt73v-0-0"><span data-offset-key="bt73v-0-0"><span data-text="true">About the Author</span></span></div></div><div data-block="true" data-editor="ai2dp" data-offset-key="4455c-0-0"><div data-offset-key="4455c-0-0"><span data-offset-key="4455c-0-0"><span data-text="true">David Philip Mullins is the author of Greetings from Below and an associate professor of English at Creighton University.
