In 2015, Dr. Donald Blakeslee and his team re-discovered the Native American city of Etzanoa near Arkansas City. Join Dr. Blakeslee as he returns to the Museum for one of his popular updates. He’ll briefly review how he located this city that once held over 20,000 people. Since then, however, his findings have grown much bigger than Etzanoa. The stories being unearthed may very well rewrite Kansas history. Dr. Blakeslee is a Wichita State University archaeologist, author and sought-after speaker.
