Call for Papers/Posters Registration
A conference on Mescalero and Chiricahua Apache was
held in 1990 in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. A second Apache
conference is long overdue. This conference will focus on recent
Apache archaeological and ethnographic research in the greater
Southwest. Papers are encouraged on early apache sites (1500-1800),
American and Mexican military/Apache battle sites, post-reservation
Apache sites and Apache rock art sites. Both professional and
public participation is encouraged. A field trip is planned to
an 1869 battlefield located on the Lincoln National Forest. Historic
period Apache artifacts will be available for viewing.
Abstract(s) (not more than 150 words)
Due by April 1, 2003 via e-mail to: cadams@fs.fed.us,
