Pâripakûru' with Zach Rice and Taylor Moore - Ruins 89

The Archaeology Podcast Network Feed

In this special four-part episode we are joined by Zach Rice and Taylor to talk about how they are working on the reawakening of the Pawnee language. Both Zach and Taylor are citizens of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma and grew up in Pawnee, Oklahoma. We talk about growing up in Pawnee, where they went to school, what inspired them to pursue M.A.'s in Linguistic Anthropology at the University of Oklahoma. We dive into their M.A. Theses research, the relationships between Northern Caddoan Languages, working with the Pawnee Nation on the Pawnee Language Program, the challenges they face, and their goals for Pawnee language.
