I'm excited to see this important book just out from Palgrave. Congratulations to the editors, Farina King and Wade Davies, and to Midge Dellinger & RaeLynn Butler for their chapter: "A Twenty-First Century Pandemic in Indian Country: The Resilience of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation Against Covid-19."

Been on here for a week, so it is probably time that I introduced myself! I work at the University of Tulsa (TU) and an #archaeologist who is broadly interested in the importance of material culture our lives and how objects have helped shape the past.
