Speaker: You're listening to the Archaeology Podcast Network.
Speaker: Welcome to a Life in Ruins Podcast, operated by the Archaeology Podcast Network. I'm Carlton Gover. And I'm Connor Jonnan. I'm David Ian Howe. Our podcast is a dialogue between three archaeologists and their guests, discussing their eclectic careers in archaeology. And why they have chosen to live a life in ruins.
Speaker: Carlton is a doctoral student in archaeology at the University of Colorado Boulder, secretary for the board of directors of the Museum of the Pawnee Nation, and also a tribal citizen of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma. Connor is an archaeologist and geographic information system specialist at Alpine Archaeological Consultants, which is located in Western Colorado. David is currently the artifacts laboratory manager and archaeologist at the Augusta Veterans Curation Program, which is currently operated by New South Associates.
Speaker: one of the largest CRM firms in the Southeast. We're three friends with careers in three different aspects of archaeology. Higher academia. Cultural resources management. Public outreach, collections, and cultural resources management. We all met at the University of Wyoming where we got our masters in anthropology. Well, two of us did. Yeah, Carlton. Just a minor technicality on getting my thesis submitted.
Speaker: Our podcast will consist of three young professionals in the field of anthropology. Interviewing other young professionals in the field. As well as distinguished personalities that are contributing to the larger dialogue of anthropology and other human sciences today. Well, if and when they give us the time of day. We will try to find out why they have chosen a life in ruins or why they have chosen a relevant and useful career path.
Speaker: We will also have episodes about how anthropology and its subfields have been portrayed in popular culture. Like TV, movies, video games, and in political discourse.
