AIW Budapest revived

Dear all, Keshia De Freece Lawrence, who wrote her complaining email to all participants of the Budapest AIW, was able to have access to the AIW Committee email archives during the last days. She could also read the discussion we had within the AIW Committee about her email. I don't know whether other Committee members got emails too, but this is her fan email to me (see below).

AIW Virtual Server
by Reni Bartl 05 Jul '24

05 Jul '24

Dear all, Patrick, the IT-Manager of the AIW virtual server told me last week that due to personal and health reasons he is not able to take care of the AIW virtual server anymore. I am presently looking for an alternative solution for the webpage and the AIW email accounts, which also are not working properly. Unfortunately, due to a bug on the AIW virtual server, part of the AIW list server archives are publicly accessible at present. See: <https://list.american-indian-workshop.org/archives/> https://list.american-indian-workshop.org/archives/. Moreover, the AIW email addresses are not working properly. I have phoned Patrick today and he will take care of the problem as soon as he is back home. As I do not have the knowledge how to manage a virtual server I have to wait until he solves the problem. Sorry! To avoid these problems in the future I have decided to discontinue the AIW virtual server and move the webpage and AIW email accounts to a webhosting service. The question is what you prefer: * Normal webhosting (then the webpage would just be moved as it is)? * Webhosting with a Content Management System (in this case I must create a completely new setup of the webpage)? Please let me know what you would prefer. FYI: webpages with Content Management System are usually more expensive to rent than webhosting alone. Best Renate ----- Dr. phil.

AIWs Krakow and Madrid
by Reni Bartl 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

Dear all, see below the email from Radoslaw Palonka concerning the AIWs 2025 and 2027. What shall we do? Shall we have a vote for the AIW 2025 between Madrid and Krakow, or shall we prefer the offer from Madrid for 2025? The problem is that Avelino had already sent his application for Madrid 2025 to Judit to be presented at the Business Meeting 2023 in Budapest. Then Judit did not take part in the Business Meeting and did not forward the information to anybody else attending. This is the reason why we had no vote last year. What is your opinion? Best, Renate Von: Radosław Palonka <radek.palonka(a)uj.edu.pl <mailto:radek.palonka@uj.edu.pl> > Gesendet: Montag, 8.

Proposal Dear Renate, Thank you for our previous correspondence and I apologize for the delay with the answer (it was a hectic time for me as two weeks ago my daughter was in hospital and other things..). I would like to compete for the 2025 organization of the next AIW meeting and if I (Krakow) won't be selected then I would apply for 2027. One of the reasons for applying for the next year is we now have many students that are engaged directly in the project I conduct in Colorado and some others involved in archaeological and anthropological research in North America; they will be helpful and also can be directly involved in workshops, etc. Also, I didn't plan to participate this year in the AIW meeting and workshops, but I can go to Pardubice next Thursday or Friday and present some stuff and my proposal for you or other committee members. Plese, let me know what you think.

Proposal Good afternoon Renate, Many thanks for your prompt answer. 2025 would be good in my case for several reasons: I have several students and Ph.D. students that could be greatly engaged in such an event and be helpful with this. Also, there is potential for some funds from the Dean of our department/Department of History where the Institute of Archaeology is situated (this financial support is not confirmed yet, but highly probable); as well as some other things related to the present situation. Not clear how the situation will look like in three years😉 But also, I understand the situation that there is one candidate for 2025 and don't want to harm his schedules, etc. Please, let me think for a while and confirm a few things and I'll be back to you. Best regards, Radek P.S. Also, thanks for your constant up-to-date info regarding many conference and scholarship options. I advise my students to follow this information.. -------------------------------- Radoslaw Palonka, Ph.D. Associate Professor Department of American Archaeology Institute of Archaeology Jagiellonian University Golebia 11 Street, 31-007 Kraków, Poland third floor, room no. 306 Work Phone: +48 12-663-1595 Cell: +48 606-781-823 https://digitalsouthwest.pl/ https://e-sandcanyon.org/ ----------------------------------------- Research Associate Crow Canyon Research Institute Crow Canyon Archaeological Center 23390 Road K Cortez, CO 81321 USA _____ Od: AIW - Bartl <bartl(a)american-indian-workshop.org <mailto:bartl@american-indian-workshop.org> > Wysłane: środa, 6 marca 2024 10:32 Do: Radosław Palonka <radek.palonka(a)uj.edu.pl <mailto:radek.palonka@uj.edu.pl> > DW: AIW - Bartl <bartl(a)american-indian-workshop.org <mailto:bartl@american-indian-workshop.org> > Temat: AW: 2025 AIW meeting?

Actually, we have already a candidate for 2025; Avelino Corral Esteban from the University of Madrid. He had made the suggestion 2 years ago and it should have been decided to go to Madrid at the Business Meeting in Budapest last year, but as I got ill, I could not attend the AIW in Budapest and we could not decide on that. There are 2 possibilities now: either you want to organize the AIW in 2027, or we will have a decision for 2025 between Madrid and Krakow at the business meeting this year. Would you be interested in organizing the AIW in 2027? Or do you prefer 2025? Let me know.

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.

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.

AIW talk platform - stop
by ross＠rosske.de 30 Oct '23

30 Oct '23

Dear All, according to our decision at the business meeting Budapest, June, 29th 2023 I’ve started the online platform „AIW talks and contributions“. Together with Judit Kádár who was supporting the project regarding the sending of the invitations to presenters in her role of this years‘ AIW organizer, we had the kick off August, 3rd. Unfortunately due to technical issues she will not be able to proceed and send the invitations to all participants to open discussion. Moreover, the option offered to upload contributions for discussion again was not used. We are having one upload this time, on the occasion of the pilot based on the AIW Luxembourg we had two uploads. I have to acknowledge that it is difficult to implement a stable process and at the same time I have to accept that there is too little interest for the project I am proposing. And - as you can see below I’ve spent a lot of time and effort for the project already. The aforementioned circumstances now cause me to close the project. This is naturally also connected with my withdrawal from the committee. I would like to thank you all for the good cooperation and hope to see you again at one of the next AIWs. With best regards, Sonja Proposal to the committee and project definition Jan. 2021 and Apr. 2021 Presentation to Business Meetings 2021, 2022, 2023 Tool down selection 2021, 2022 Intensive testing and Pilot testing 2021/2022 (with R.
