Archaeology Café

The Destination Archaeology Resource Center (DARC) and Sluggo’s Vegetarian Restaurant are teaming up to keep your brain and stomach full.

The next Archaeology Café is Thursday, April 5 at 6 p.m. Dr. Ramie Gougeon will give a short presentation, “Archaeology of the Taco: A Tortilla-Wrapped History of Food, Domestication and Globalization,” followed by an open discussion.

The laid-back lecture takes place in Sluggo’s and is free and open to the community. Support the restaurant by purchasing food and drinks.

Gougeon is an assistant professor of anthropology at UWF. He has worked in nearly every capacity of cultural resource management since 1993 in addition to teaching at universities in Georgia and North Carolina. His research interests include sociopolitical, complexity, household anthropology, vernacular architecture, historic preservation, the prehistory of the Pensacola region and, of course, food.
