Repatriation as Pedagogy
Repatriation as pedagogy is a prompt for thinking through the relationships that repatriation makes possible and the transformative practices that repatriation teaches us are necessary for the future. We understand repatriation in its most expansive sense to include a process of returning Indigenous ancestors, culturally significant belongings and relations, language materials, representations of culture, data, and biological specimens. Moving be…

Indigenous Studies Working Group Statement
In 2018, the authors were invited to share their perspectives as Indigenous studies scholars to the work of Breakthrough Listen, an organization affiliated with both the Berkeley SETI Research Center (BSRC) and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). This collectively authored statement highlights some of the ethical concerns these authors perceived regarding the history colonialism and the expectations to find “advanced” or “intelli…
An Archaeology Led by Strawberries
Indigenous Archaeological Organizations
Indigenous Science for a World in Crisis
A growing body of work illustrates that community-based archaeology can contribute in valuable and meaningful ways to communities, including helping individuals and groups to heal from historical trauma. Yet the current political climate makes it challenging, even dangerous at times, to engage in such work. In what is being called the ‘post-truth’ era, there is concern that science is under attack, and I argue that the threat is heightened for In…
Archaeologies of the Heart
Community-Based Archaeology
Archaeology impacts the lives of indigenous, local, or descendant communities. Yet often these groups have little input to archaeological research, and its results remain inaccessible. As archaeologists consider the consequences and benefits of research, the skills, methodologies, and practices required of them will differ dramatically from those of past decades. As an archaeologist and a Native American, Sonya Atalay has investigated the rewards…
Can Archaeology Help Decolonize the Way Institutions Think? How Community-Based Research is Transforming the Archaeology Training Toolbox and Helping to Transform Institutions
Braiding Strands of Wellness
Drawing on Anishinabe concepts of holistic health and well-being, this article explores ways that repatriation of ancestral remains and cultural items can contribute to healing and well-being in Indigenous communities. The focus is on “Indigenous storywork” and embodied practices amongst those who are engaged in reclaiming ancestral remains and cultural items, with examples from the author’s experience in repatriation, reburial, and reclaiming cu…

Ritual Processes of Repatriation
What do those who participate in repatriation-on behalf of the museums and the communities to whom there is return-most want people to know about it? Nine prominent scholars provide short commentaries in response to this special section on the ritual processes of repatriation. The discussants are museum professionals, Indigenous community members, repatriation claimants, and repatriation officers; these are not mutually exclusive categories. They…

We don't talk about Çatalhöyük, we live it
Community-based participatory research (CBPR) provides a methodology for engaging descendent and local communities as partners in archaeological research. This article, based on a five-year comparative research project that examines CBPR's application to archaeology, demonstrates a collaborative model that involves reciprocity, is action based and aims to build community capacity while engaging communities in the process of archaeological researc…

Global Application of Indigenous Archaeology
Indigenous Archaeology as Decolonizing Practice
Archaeology includes the study of artifacts and other aspects of material culture but is more importantly about people-understanding people's daily lives, their sense of place in the world, the food they ate, their art, their spirituality, and their political and social organization. In piecing together multiple lines of evidence, including written documents, oral histories, analytical data from artifacts and ecofacts, and a range of regional and…

Food, Meals, and Daily Activities
We consider the daily practices of food preparation and consumption at the Neolithic Anatolian site of Çatalhöyük. We present the major food activities suggested from the archaeological evidence, including the timing and range of possible ingredients eaten by the residents of this thousand-year settlement. Plant, animal, and mineral resources, as well as the food production and preparation practices, are viewed in the context of the seasonal cycl…
