Yes.

Well, hello.

My name is Gustavo Flores.

I'm an archaeologist and a lecturer at San Jose State University and also teach at Evergreen Valley College in the anthropology department.

This particular research kind of began with my master thesis, which I documented the resistance and agency of Native Americans and highlighted three specific leaders, Pomponio, Joscolo, and Stanislao.

We'll talk a little bit about them later in this podcast.
