In this episode, public and Plains Cree archaeologist Honey Constant (University of Saskatchewan) talks about her own cultural background and the indigenous archaeology of Wanuskewin Heritage Park in Saskatoon, Canada.

As a Senior Guide at Wanuskewin, Honey leads tours through the valley, plans and facilitates traditional craft workshops, and teaches visitors about archaeology and Plains culture. How did Cree groups in the area hunt bison successfully? How does Indigenous traditional knowledge enhance not just our understandings of the archaeology, but also the public's experience of the valley when they visit?

You can find more information in the show notes under the episode on our website.
