SUMMARY:A Life in San Diego Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:Join the Center for a reception and presentation by local archaeologist\, professor\, and author Dr. G.Timothy Gross. Gross volunteered on his first archaeological projects as a high school student in 1968\, and although he has worked outside San Diego\, he has been involved in local archaeology ever since. In this talk he will reflect on the changes that have happened in the last 50 years in how archaeology has been done and by whom. He will look at what we have learned and what ideas we have discarded\, and he will address the ever-changing political climate of local archaeology. A tour of the Center will be offered following the presentation. \nDate: Saturday\, November 9\, 2019\nTime: 12 PM to 3 PM (Presentation at 1 PM)\nLocation: San Diego Archaeological Center\nCost: Free

SUMMARY:2nd Sat: The Impossible Railroad
DESCRIPTION:In the early 1900s\, San Diego was a growing and thriving city\, but with no rail transportation eastward. Spearheaded by John D. Spreckels\, with his persistence and money\, a railroad was constructed that engineers warned would be impossible to build. Starting in San Diego\, the “Impossible Railroad” snaked through brutal mountain and desert terrain to connect with the transcontinental Southern Pacific in El Centro. It took 12 challenging years to build\, but the 1919 completion was widely celebrated. This November is the 100th anniversary of the completion of the San Diego and Arizona Railway which still operates along parts of its 148-mile route. Author Reena Deutsch will give an account of the line’s dramatic history through vintage photos and gripping narration. \nAbout the Author \nAfter stumbling upon old railroad tracks in our local desert\, Dr. Reena Deutsch researched the colorful history of John Spreckels’ San Diego and Arizona (Eastern) Railway and has given dozens of lectures and wrote a book on it. Prior to retirement\, Dr. Deutsch was a UCSD medical researcher. She currently serves as Board member for the Anza-Borrego Desert Natural History Association and Balboa Park’s San Diego Model Railroad Museum. This year\, she is collaborating with the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum Association to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the completion of the San Diego and Arizona Railway. \nDate: Saturday\, June 8\, 2019\nTime: 11 AM\nLocation: San Diego Archaeological Center\nCost: Free

SUMMARY:2nd Sat: Murder and Mayhem
DESCRIPTION:Early twentieth-century San Diego was growing fast\, and the officers sworn to protect the city encountered more than their fair share of wily lawbreakers. From a shootout with a lone gunman in Mission Hills to gunfights with a gang of bank robbers that involved enthusiastic bystanders hoping to assist\, detectives and patrolmen alike tried to maintain the peace. They encountered unexpected bodies\, confronted car thieves and pursued criminals through neighboring states and into Mexico. Join author Steve Willard as he unearths stories directly from the case files of the early San Diego Police Department. \nAbout the Author \nA San Diego resident since 1977\, author Steve Willard joined the SDPD in 1985 and has worked patrol\, crime prevention/public affairs\, the detective bureau\, the Traffic Division and management. He became a charter member of the San Diego Police Museum in 1997 and is the historian of the San Diego Police Officers Association. A reoccurring columnist in two law enforcement periodicals\, Steve has authored three books on SDPD history and has consulted on a number of other historical projects. \nDate: Saturday\, May 11\, 2019\nTime: 11 AM\nLocation: San Diego Archaeological Center\nCost: Free

SUMMARY:Archaeology of the Coronados Islands
DESCRIPTION:Location: San Diego Archaeological Center\nCost: Free\nDespite their attractiveness to early human migrants and maritime foragers\, small islands often are overlooked in archaeological and historical ecological investigations. Along Alta and Baja California\, the Channel Islands and Isla Cedros have been the focus of extensive and intensive archaeological investigations. Even with the wealth of data from islands to the north and south\, the Coronados Islands\, a small set of four islands off the northwestern Baja California coast\, have been the subject of very little scientific archaeological research. Joseph McCain will present his findings after an initial field season was completed in 2016. This research produced the first radiometric dates from the Coronados Islands\, built an initial settlement chronology and occupational history\, identified several prehistoric sites with high research potential\, and laid the foundation for future archaeological and historical ecological studies of the island group.
