45th AIW update
by Savelkova Livia 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Dear colleagues, We would like to invite you to the 45th AIW to Pardubice, held from the 16th till the 19th of April. Here is a webpage link for more details. 45th American Indian Workshop – Katedra sociální a kulturní antropologie (upce.cz)<https://kska.upce.cz/aiw2024/> I would like to update you on the progress of the AIW preparations. We have been working on the program. We should have three very interesting keynotes – two will be online – Janice Forsyth (Forsyth, Janice - Kinesiology (ubc.ca)<https://kin.educ.ubc.ca/forsyth-janice/>), Rick Hill (Member of the Six Nations is appointed to the Order of Canada | Brantford Expositor<https://www.brantfordexpositor.ca/news/local-news/six-nation-historian-refl…>) and Susan Brownell (Dr. Susan Brownell | UMSL<https://www.umsl.edu/~umslhistory/About%20The%20Department/People/faculty/b…>). The last year we applied for a Wenner-Gren Foundation grant, unfortunately we were not successful. The Canadian Embassy expressed their willingness to help us at the end of 2022 and it was confirmed at the beginning of 2023. Unfortunately, in January 2024 they announced that they were not able to provide any financial support. During the last year, the ambassador has changed. The Canadian Embassy offered us to support the 45th AIW through their social media. In January, we applied to the American Embassy for 2024 U.S Embassy Small Grants projects, unfortunately we did not receive any support. We also applied for support from the City of Pardubice from the grant program for 2024, we are still waiting for the results. To some extent we also relied on the promised support from our university. Unfortunately, a month ago without any expectations, the dean decided to fire 10-11 academics and cut 20% of the budget for each department due to lack of funding in higher education in the Czech Republic. Because of this, we had to resort to a higher conference fee. The tax is 21% from the fee. Our department and faculty to some extent will fund what will be above the conference fee. We hope that institutions will support their academics who are planning to participate. The 45th AIW organizational committee decided that we will leave a voluntarily contribution on those who come as accompanying persons because the tax burden on even a small amount is high. We hope that despite any external support we will enjoy the 45th AIW together, including photo exhibition, film screening and trip to the Opočno castle on the 19th April. We are looking forward to see you in Pardubice or online. Best regards, Livia PhDr. Lívia Šavelková, Ph. D.

WG: 2025 AIW meeting? Proposal
by AIW-Bartl＠t-online.de 06 Mar '24

06 Mar '24

Dear all, FYI, another candidate for 2025. Last time when Radoslaw made the suggestion organizing a workshop, it was not finalized, because he never answered my emails on when and where he wants to organize an AIW. I hope it functions better this time. I have informed him that we already have a candidate for 2025, Madrid, and I have asked him whether he would be interested in organizing it in 2027. If he still wants to organize it in 2025, we should have a decision by vote where to go in 2025 at the Business Meeting this year. Best Renate Von: Radosław Palonka <radek.palonka(a)uj.edu.pl <mailto:radek.palonka@uj.edu.pl> > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 6. März 2024 09:26 An: bartl(a)american-indian-workshop.org <mailto:bartl@american-indian-workshop.org> Betreff: 2025 AIW meeting? Proposal Dear Renate, We were corresponding some time ago (with the help of Bartosz Hlebowicz) about the possibility of organizing one of the AIW conferences/workshops at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland; then it wasn't finalized. But I would like to come back to this idea, of course if you and the AIW Organizing Committee would be interested. I see that the 46th American Indian Workshop (2025) is still to be announced. If that means you don't have a place for the meeting, I would propose our university and especially the Department of New World Archaeology within the Institute of Archaeology, where I work. This unit provide classes on archaeology, anthropology, and history of North, Meso, and South Americas and field projects conducted in Colorado (USA) and Guatemala: https://archeo.uj.edu.pl/en_GB/zns I also teach at the Institute of American Studies at JU, so there will be even more interested people and potential participants at the conference from different scientific disciplines. Since 2011, I have been conducting an archaeological project in southwestern Colorado, in the Mesa Verde region. It focuses on the reconstruction of socio-cultural changes of the Ancestral Pueblo community during the thirteenth century AD, but also documentation for architecture and rock art: paintings and petroglyphs from different time periods and various native cultures as well as traces of first European-American settlers in this area. Apart from "traditional" archaeological methods this includes digital applications, like advanced photography and 3D laser scanning, from the ground and from the air/LiDAR to a great extent. The project is also conducted with strong collaboration with several American institutions, but also Hopi tribe (Hopi Cultural Preservation Office, Second Mesa, AZ) and Ute Mountain Ute tribe (Towaoc, Colorado) in terms of indigenous oral traditions referring to the sites we investigate. So, if you would be interested, I do believe we can organize such an event, especially as there is a growing and growing number of students and other people interested in various topics on Native American cultures and tribes. I also collaborate with other Polish institutions that have classes or are engaged in different ways in scientific research or even popularizing the knowledge about indigenous societies of North and South America.
