Introduction: Re-imagining Colonial, Pasts, Influencing Colonial Futures
chapter
posted on 2015-02-02, 14:41 authored by Katherine Hayes, Craig Cipolla[From initial paragraph] Twenty years ago, the Columbian quincentenary inspired
archaeologists to initiate conversations and debates about
colonialism that extended well beyond Columbus specifically and
modern European expansion in general. These conversations were
particularly poignant and fraught among archaeologists in the
Americas. Not only did they touch upon the raw nerve of the
newly passed Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation
Act (NAGPRA), they also brought attention to the gaping
ontological and epistemological divides in our discipline over
temporality and subjectivity. In the years that followed, we
turned more attention to the question of colonialism and have
found not one but many processes and historical outcomes and
found not two categories of people involved (colonizer and
colonized) but a vast plurality of variously gendered,
racialized, aged, and occupied peoples of a multitude of faiths,
desires, associations, and constraints.
