We Are Storytellers
Welcome to the 2025-2026 Archaeology Now Series
LEGACIES
Join Archaeology Now for three series of events that celebrate legacies that define us:
The legacy of medieval al-Andalus Spain, where Muslims, Christians, and Jews overcame religious and cultural differences.
The legacy of Mesopotamia that gave us writing.
The Legacy of Houston’s Antioch Missionary Baptist Church where new Americans created a sacred community of hope after the Civil War.
