Last March, Mary Weahkee traveled to Fort Sill, Oklahoma as part of a team that assisted the Comanche Nation in documenting and bounding an ancestral burial area. Ms. Weahkee will talk about that process.

Mary Weahkee works at OAS as an archaeologist and educator. She is a member of both Santa Clara Pueblo and the Comanche Nation.

The Brown Bag talks will take place at the Center for New Mexico Archaeology at 12:00 noon on Tuesdays in the CNMA library. Seating is limited. Admission is free.

The Center for New Mexico Archaeology (7 Old Cochiti Road) is located off of Caja del Rio Road, across from Challenge New Mexico on the way to the Santa Fe Municipal Golf Course. Take 599 to South Meadows Road, continue through the traffic circle west along the Frontage Road to Caja del Rio Road. CNMA is on the left-hand side of the road and is the large building with white sail-like skylights on the roof.
