DESCRIPTION
The Center of Southwest Studies' "Imagining the West" Summer Lecture Series continues August 5th with a talk from journalist, Ann Butler. How we remember the dead has changed greatly since humans first came to Southwest Colorado. Whether it’s the ancestral Puebloans, early Navajo and Ute hunter-gatherers, or Hispanic and Anglo settlers, traditions and even the language of death evolved with the cultures and the times. Butler’s talk will explore the topic from pre-Hispanic time through the Victorian age.
