Been the sight of extensive archeology work since 1973. After university of pittsburgh students painstakingly removed layer after layer of sediment, evidence of human activity as early as 19,000 years ago was revealed. We visited meadowcroft, the National Historic landmark to learn the story from james adovasio, who has been leading Archaeology Research there for 50 years. We are currently 46 kilometers southwest of pittsburgh, pennsylvania in Washington County on the north bank of cross creek, which is a small tributary of the ohio river. In 1972, there was a vacancy in the Anthropology Department at the university of pittsburgh. I joined the faculty there.

Weve been pondering what Democratic Practice could and should look like in the United States, and then very much so and very pertinent to what were going to do today, what role the United States should play internationally.
