Native archaeologists will always be able to make a deeper connection to their work in their homelands. They will always have a greater advantage in their work than an outsider. We need more of them. People like Balenquah are true bridge builders to understanding for the rest of us who can only admire and appreciate their truer connections, from afar.

I once heard a Mayan elder and also a Hopi elder say that the Hopi people are related to the Mayans in mesoAmerica

No, the Mexikah are related to the Hopi. As Native Americans, then yes, they are related.

that intro should be shared with everyone who thinks that science is objectively a good and innocent thing. when someone is directly telling you that the scientific study of their own heritage is a foreign thing to their community, but their heritage is something that has been scientifically studied for generations... listen. that means science has a tradition of dismissing huge components of the truth for the sake of an agenda. never stop making efforts, like this, to repair this problem.

I remember as a young boy in a place that I was there for a rededication of a kiva the archaeologists had excavated. It was dismantled and filled in before it was abandoned. The tribal elder that was there. Things I can't talk about, but this is one of the reasons I am bound to the Hopi. Another time, I was separated from my people, but I was able to read some of the Hopi traditions that probably should be private, but they were there. Then I saw things, and knew things that fit. There is something there I don't understand but know they fit. My grandmother's people are from a reservation but I don't know if they are part of the tribe but I know they lived there for generations and generations. There is somethings there I know but don't yet understand. There is something very important with the Hopi for me, but I don't understand why yet.

Since I can't afford to volunteer with an archaeological excavation in the Eastern Mediterranean I plan to volunteer to hopefully for a Hohokham archaeological dig on the San Pedro River, this will be a good experience.

This is good and hopefully he will bring in respect in the archaeological field to the Hopi, the Americas and around the world. I was once offered the chance to be on an archaeological excavation in Cyprus, Greece. It was the Bronze Age temple of Aphrodite and part of it was the excavation of graves. As an ethnic Greek I cringed at this but I wanted to be there, so I could make sure these non-Greek Anglo kids respected my ancestor's remains, so I respect your thoughts. I could not afford to go. 😭
@tuvoca8256 жыл бұрын
Hopi archaeology primarily belongs to the Hopi, to the descendants of those being studied. It is their family, their history. It is their stewardship. They should be supported in their efforts but their efforts shouldn't be politicized by outsiders at the detriment of the family connections they must maintain above all. It's all about family, and that should make it sacred to everyone's understanding.
@ubomninomen77654 жыл бұрын
Great to hear some basic humanity injected into the inherently ghoulish aspect of archaeology with respect to ancestors and human remains. I want cremation when I die because I don't want my remains to be desecrated by ghouls masquarading as scientists and physicians. Ever. 50:00 is a touching moment, and I think universal. It speaks to one of the reasons I love working on old buildings. I like to imagine my spirit constructively haunting my 250+ year old house in PA after I'm gone. I'll continue to be the steward, keeping it in good repair for my children so they'll know that they will never be alone.
