On today’s episode Jessica hosts Jon Shellenberger (Yakama), Yakama Nation Tribal Archaeologist. We talk first about his journey to become an archaeologist and ethnographer. In the second segment we talk about the work of the Yakama Nation to defend their inherent and treaty rights to fish, to protect tribal members from being prosecuted for having eagle and migratory bird feathers, and to re-establish their buffalo hunts in what is now Yellowstone National Park. Finally we talk about the projects he works on as the Yakama Tribal Archaeologist, what that looks like on a daily basis, and his larger vision for the program.
