Don’t Let This Die With You, Make Sure You Pass This On To Others: Perspectives on First Nation Heritage and Archaeology

Over the last twenty years, Dr. Kevin Brownlee (the Curator of Archaeology at the Manitoba Museum) has been engaged in Manitoba archaeology. An Ininew from Kinosao Sipi Cree Nation (Norway House), he is a student of the culturally proficient Elders who have taught him archaeology, history, ethnology and native studies to understand our past, culture and heritage. He also sees himself as a facilitator for the First Nation community helping Metis and Inuit peoples work together to achieve these goals.
