SUMMARY:An Evening with Dan Schultz\, author of Dead Run: The Murder of a Lawman and the Greatest Manhunt of the Modern American West – History Live! Durango
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Maria’s Bookshop\nLocation: Maria’s Bookshop\nContact: Mary Schwartz\, 970.247.1438\, mary@mariasbookshop.com \nTwenty-five years ago\, inhabitants of the Four Corners region were shocked by this desperate scheme that resulted in the brutal murder of a Cortez police officer\, Dale Claxton. More than a crime story\, Dead Run is the extraordinary true story of three desperado survivalists\, a dangerous plot\, a brutal murder\, and a treacherous manhunt that brought national attention to our Southwest region. The pursuit that ensued pitted the most sophisticated law enforcement technology on the planet against three self-trained survivalists. Seventy-five local\, state\, and federal police agencies; dozens of SWAT teams; U.S. Army Special Forces\, tribal police and more than five hundred officers from across the country followed the fugitives into a landscape only they could survive. Journalist and author Dan Schultz chronicles the events in Dead Run and ponders the allure of outlaw culture in the West and how it continues to inform national attitudes toward guns\, authority\, and unfettered freedom.

SUMMARY:The Virgin Branch Culture of Southern Nevada\, with Professor Karen Harry\, University of Nevada\, Las Vegas – History Live! Durango
DESCRIPTION:Presented by San Juan Basin Archaeological Society\nLocation: Fort Lewis College Center of Southwest Studies Lyceum or via Zoom (link at SJBAS.org)\nContact: Janice C. Sheftel\, janicesheftel@gmail.com \nProfessor Harry specializes in the study of ceramic technology\, production\, and distribution and the archaeology of the North American southwest. An area of ongoing research deals with understanding ceramic technology and use among sedentary hunter-gathers. For more than a thousand years\, the Moapa Valley of southern Nevada was home to people participating in the westernmost expression of Puebloan lifeways. Appearing in the archaeological record at about AD 200\, these individuals were members of what archaeologists refer to as the Virgin Branch Puebloan culture. This culture did not appear and progress in a vacuum\, however\, but developed and changed in response to changing environmental and social conditions. This talk covers the origin\, development\, and decline of the Lowland Virgin Branch culture while also exploring how the local cultural context affected how this trajectory unfolded. \nSince joining the UNLV faculty in 2001\, Karen has obtained more than $1.6 million in external funding\, which has provided stipends and research opportunities for numerous graduate and undergraduate students. She has authored and co-authored two books and regularly publishes in peer-reviewed books and journals\, including American Anthropologist\, American Antiquity\, Journal of Archaeological Science\, and Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory. Karen received her Ph.D\, from the University of Arizona\, Department of Anthropology.

SUMMARY:Charles Darwin and His Revolutionary Idea – History Live! Durango
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Southwest Colorado Humanities Roundtable\nLocation: The Powerhouse Museum\nContact: Shelley Walchak\, 303.941.4012\, swalchak@gmail.com \nImagine an evening with the affable\, young Charles Darwin\, among friends\, telling amazing stories of his adventure sailing around the world on HMS Beagle. Darwin shares humorous tales of his training as a naturalist\, his insights into South American geology\, his discovery of strange creatures on the Galapagos Archipelago and most importantly\, the scientific evidence that led to his revolutionary theory. Storyteller and science teacher\, Brian “Fox” Ellis steps into Darwin’s shoes to engage the audience in a discussion of the facts so they can draw their own conclusions. \n Equal parts dramatic storytelling\, stand-up comedy and show and tell\, listeners are immersed in the intellectual world of one of history’s greatest scientific minds. He brings a wide array of fossils\, insects\, plants\, and study skins so the audience can experience the discoveries of Darwin with hands-on analysis. \nHistory Live! Chautauqua 3
