In this episode, we do a brief overview of several prehistoric Native American sites we visited on our recent joint project with the Seven Ages Audio Journal Archaeology Podcast. We spent a week traveling to several different sites conducting interviews with archaeologists and site managers as well as recording episodes for our YouTube channel Chasing History.

We captured a lot of content about some incredible sites which will be available on this podcast as well as on the seven ages audio journal podcast and on our Chasing History YouTube channel. We have a lot more site-by-site shows coming soon where we delve deep into the history!

On the evening of December 5th, 2021, we lost a dear friend of the show & the Smoky Mountain Relic Room - David Dean. For over 65 years David did archaeological & paleontological work for institutions, government organizations, universities, & for himself. David was a Citizen Scientist, a person who collects and analysis data that is relative to a specific subject in collaboration with professional scientists. In this case paleontological and archaeological data.

Over the years David has done much to add to our understanding of the past. There are many vertebrate fossil species that were unknown to science until David came along and discovered them. There were prehistoric Native American sites that no one knew existed until David found them and recorded them. David also volunteered his time and knowledge to anyone that would ask for it. He was a great friend to us and the work that we are doing here at Chasing History. This episode chronicles some of the discoveries that he made, his life as well, and how you can get involved and become a citizen scientist yourself. We think that the greatest tribute to David's life would be to inspire others to pick up the flag and continue to further our knowledge of the past and become citizen scientists. 

In a few months, "The Seven Ages audio Journal" podcast will be hosting a call-in & tribute show about David's life. We hope that some of you guys who follow us will go and check them out.    Thank you David for everything you have done for us and for science!   Please help us out by taking 20 seconds and giving us a rate and review or tell us how we can make a better show.
