Material Cultures of North America

We study historical objects, buildings, landscapes, and their meanings through a number of themes in North American material culture (including their international contexts) up to the early 1900s. Areas of focus vary each year, but may include the material cultures of the First Nations, military technology, settler expansion, the workplace, the home, landscape, and architecture, along with the roles objects and buildings play in the immaterial realms of memory, faith, and identity. (Formerly HST 723).
