In "The Education of an Intellectual," Keenan paints an intriguing portrait of turn-of-the-century Kansas and demonstrates profound significance of Counts's twenty-four years in Kansas on his life and accomplishments.
		Not surprisingly, perhaps, the authors found a dearth of good, published work on their subject but a fascinating and important story to be told.

		In this exhibit we present six (among many) important individuals who represent the founding of an anthropological tradition at Columbia: Franz Boas, Margaret Mead, Ruth Benedict, Edward Sapir, Harry Shapiro, and William Duncan Strong—three cultural anthropologists, a linguist, a physical anthropologist, and an archeologist.
		Boas, Shapiro, and Strong served only as faculty members, while Benedict and Mead were graduate students and then teachers.
		Boas and Sapir worked among Northwest Coast tribes (and Boas with the Eskimo as well), Benedict with several Native American groups, mostly in the southwest, Mead with the Omaha of Nebraska, Strong on the Great Plains (as an archeologist) and Shapiro with his forensic work.

		In Political Identity and Archaeology in Northeast Honduras, Thomas Cuddy fills a substantial void in the scholarship on the origins of complex societies and the Central American political landscape, drawing on previously unexamined research conducted by anthropologist William Duncan Strong during a 1933 expedition to find the southern reaches of Maya culture.
		Cuddy, working with Strong’s untapped fieldwork, examines symbolic expressions to reconstruct the dynamic contexts that structured power in Central American prehistory and shaped the political identity of northeast Honduras.
		By being similar to, but distinct from, their powerful neighbors, the polities of northeast Honduras created their own senses of power and identity that served their continued growth while states and empires crumbled around them.
