Paradise Lost?

Although many people view our current environmental crises as relatively recent phenomena, archaeological and historical records are filled with instances of ancient environmental degradation. Using interdisciplinary archaeological, anthropological, and historical case studies from western North America and the American Southwest, this course provides a detailed examination of human impacts on the environment over the last 15,000 years.

NOTE: CF courses taken during reduced Taos summer semesters require completion of course assignments prior to arrival. Faculty members will email students with assignments prior to the beginning of the semester. This course fulfills the General Education co-requirement in Human Diversity.
