Our Story
Since its creation in 1977 by Dr. John McBride, Dr. Donald Blakeslee, and former City Manager Gene Denton, the office has employed a City Archaeologist from a pool of graduate students who are committed to cultural resource management (CRM). Thanks to this collaboration between WSU and the City of 性色视频, around 65 sites have been surveyed in the surrounding metro area alone. The Office collaborates with the Kansas Antiquities Commission and Kansas Historical Society for decades to promote archaeological compliance work, as required in state and federal laws such as the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966.
Future Endeavors
The City Archaeologist Office of 性色视频 now looks forward to developing a multivocal approach in its work in public archaeology to allow tribal spokespeople, city and state officials, stakeholders, and community members to voice their interests. Open communication and continued cooperation will be key in maintaining and improving the mission of preserving local culture and history.
