In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Carlton Shield Chief Gover, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Kansas, and Curator at the Biodiversity Institute & Natural History Museum. A proud member of the Pawnee Nation, Carlton shares his expertise on Kansas archaeology, Native history, and cultural preservation.

Our conversation explores the significance of the Pawnee Nation’s heritage, what Kansans can do to help protect and respect artifacts and sites, and how anyone interested can get involved in archaeology. Carlton offers a deeper understanding of the connections between culture, history, and community here in Kansas.
