Climate Change and Violence? Cautionary Tales from the Pre-Columbian Andes The seminar will take place on January 25, 2008, 4 to 5 PM, in 201 Old Chem Building, West Campus, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. Dr. Arkush received her PhD at UCLA in 2005. Her research centers on the interplay of warfare, political power, social identity, and ritual in the prehispanic Andes. Her doctoral research focused on the later part of the prehispanic sequence after about A.D. 1000, when many small polities throughout the Andes were apparently engaged in cycles of endemic warfare. Fieldwork on a suite of fortified hilltop sites in the northern Lake Titicaca basin in Peru investigated the regional patterns that emerged from conflictual and cooperative social relationships. This study also examined the chronology of fortification to question current interpretations of the causes of intergroup violence at the time.

Hosted by Joseph Puentes, Nuestra Familia Unida: History and Genealogy is a deeply personal project dedicated to uncovering and sharing the interconnected stories of our communities. This podcast moves beyond broad historical narratives to focus on the specific lineages, cultural traditions, and lived experiences of people across Mexico, Latin America, and the entire Western Hemisphere. You’ll hear explorations of identity-from the terms La Raza, Chicano, and Chicana to Hispanic, Latino, Latina, and Indigenous-all within the wider context of Native American peoples. The aim is to build a comprehensive, collective resource, a worldwide repository of history told through the lens of family and heritage. Each episode contributes to this growing tapestry, examining how the past shapes our present identities. By delving into genealogy and historical events often overlooked, the series fosters a profound sense of connection and understanding. It’s an ongoing conversation about where we come from, inviting listeners to reflect on their own place within this vast, shared story. Tuning in means participating in the preservation of a rich and diverse legacy for future generations.
