SUMMARY:The Mound Builders of the Eastern United States
DESCRIPTION:The Mound Builders of the Eastern United States\nwith Eugene Boesch \nNative American cultures in the Midwestern United States developed elaborate ritual and settlement systems increasingly center on the construction of earthen burial mounds. Over almost two millennia this ritual activity gradually became more complex incorporating not only sacred or religious meaning but economic aspects including the rise of craft specials and extensive region-wide trading networks. What began during the Late Archaic period (3\,000 years ago) as small mound sites associated with small hamlets and low populations climaxed with Mississippian culture a thousand years ago into large urban centers with hundreds of mounds multiple stories high that had diverse functions and served scores of thousands of people. Soon after the climax\, the entire Mississippian system including mound construction collapse leaving large parts of formerly heavily populated areas almost entirely devoid of people. \nEugene Boesch has undertaken archaeological investigations in the Hudson Valley area for over 30 years. He received a Ph.D. and other graduate degrees from New York University. Dr. Boesch’s work has primarily focused on Pre-Contact period cultures and adaptations in the Eastern Woodlands of North America and on early Euro-American settlement in the Hudson Valley region. He also has worked in Israel\, California\, and throughout the mid-western United States.

SUMMARY:American Myths and Stories: A response to Immigration with Laura Chmieleski
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Laura M. Chmielewski is an Associate Professor of History and Chair of the History and Museum Studies programs at the State University of New York at Purchase\, where she teaches early American\, Atlantic World\, and public history. She received her Ph.D. from City University of New York. Laura is the author of The Spice of Popery: Converging Christianities on an Early American Frontier (University of Notre Dame Press\, 2011)\, The Atlantic Experience: People\, Places\, Ideas (with Catherine M. Armstrong: Palgrave McMillan\, 2014)\, and Jacques Marquette and Louis Jolliet: Exploration\, Encounter\, and the French New World (Routledge/Taylor & Francis\, 2017)\, as well as several book chapters and anthologized essays. She was a Historian-in-Residence at History Hudson Valley\, a consortium of historic properties\, and part of the team that created the award-winning\, National Endowment for the Humanities-funded “People Not Property: Slavery in the North” web resource. \n  \nHer current scholarly project is a study of the intersections of early American religion and maritime commerce\, an exploration of Colonial Williamsburg’s rhetorical uses\, and a social history of Catholic people in colonial America. Laura’s presentation today focuses on the Colonial Revival movement of the late 19th – early 20th centuries and the ways its creators sought to recast – and in some cases rewrite completely – the nation’s colonial past. New interpretations of its buildings and artifacts were designed with the special goal of educating immigrants from eastern and southern Europe on what it meant to be an American. This was also a consumer movement meant to create new “markets” in historical materials\, and its evidence can be seen in multiple aspects of American life ranging from furniture and home design to travel and theatrical experiences!
