{"product_id":"at-the-crossroads-jennifer-botica-9781487549145","title":"At the Crossroads: A Case of Cultural Resource Management at Cedarvale","description":"\u003cp\u003eSet in Gitxsan territory in Northern British Columbia, \u003cem\u003eAt the Crossroads\u003c\/em\u003e provides a first-hand account of a cultural resource management (CRM) project. Beginning with the initial client call, the book lays out the challenges of a tight timeline, limited budget, and hastily pulled together team. Working with competing interest and a discipline in need of modernizing, Jennifer Botica reflects on her experience as a consulting archaeologist, living in camp, excavating sites, working within heritage legislation, and collaborating with local First Nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eReflecting on the project a decade after it was completed, Botica considers not only the work of her own team, which pushed back the dates for occupation on the Skeena River, but also her own practice as a consulting archaeologist coming of age at a time when issues related to Indigenous title and rights, heritage sovereignty, community-based research, gender, and power could no longer be ignored. Offering a unique perspective on the field, \u003cem\u003eAt the Crossroads\u003c\/em\u003e presents a thoughtful critical analysis of CRM and the changing nature of archaeology as it moves to a more equitable, sustainable, informed, and ethical practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Botica\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487549148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487549145\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Jennifer Botica","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46526417895679,"sku":"9781487549145","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_51aa622a-c34e-40f4-9ff9-60e79c1b5720.jpg?v=1737556126","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/at-the-crossroads-jennifer-botica-9781487549145","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
