An archaeologist at the Navajo Nation Archaeology Department will speak at 6:30 p.m., Dec. 10, at the Cortez Cultural Center, 25 North Market St., about Navajo cultural ties to the Anasazi, the early inhabitants of the Four Corners.
William Tsosie, Jr., who received his degree from Fort Lewis College, will talk about how traditional Navajos see cultural affiliations between the two peoples.
Tsosie has worked on the Navajo Nation and in the greater Four Corners region. His areas of expertise are rock art, ceremonial systems and cultural resource protection.
Tsosie’s talk is free for members of the Cortez Cultural Center and $5 for others.
