In this episode, Carlton talks with Josh Wolford about his background in anthropology and his work on the relationships between Anishinaabe cosmology and the geologic/climactic events in the upper Great Lakes. Specifically on how they relate, where this fits in anthropology, ethno-geoarchaeology, and how we can look at other Indigenous creation stories for clues to our Paleolithic past.
