Feeding Cherokee Country: Food, Change, and Colonialism

Native American Studies Center

12:00 PM - 01:00 PM on Fri, 23 Oct 2026

Food enters the archaeological record when it is spoiled, spilled, discarded, or left behind during meal preparation and consumption. Though often considered waste, these remnants provide a window into people’s daily lives, relationships, and political and economic activities. This lecture explores how archaeological food remains reveal continuity and change in Cherokee life during European colonization.
