Discovery Session: Messages from Medicine Wheel Country
SCLT and the Sheridan College Native American Student Organization are excited to welcome Dr. Shane Doyle for the SCLT Discovery Session: Messages from Medicine Wheel Country.
Dr. Shane Doyle will provide insight into the ancient cultural history of the Northern Plains and Intermountain West. Synthesizing the archaeological data, genetic evidence, and contemporary cultural sensibilities, Dr. Doyle describes how Native people thrived for hundreds of generations in the rich, but climatically extreme landscape of the Bighorn Mountain region.
