The Crimson Cowboys: The 1931 Claflin-Emerson Expedition
No full textDelivered as the Distinguished Faculty Honors Lecture at SUU, January 17, 2019. In July 1931, the Claflin-Emerson Expedition from Harvard's Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology set out north from Green River, Utah, toward the Tavaputs Plateau. Its members probably had no inkling that they were participating in what would be the last great horseback adventure in the history of American archaeology. The 1931 field season was the Last of four summers of working the "Northern Periphery" of the Colorado Plateau, but it would be unlike any of the previous three. Not only was the area massive in its geographic scope (the Tavaputs Plateau is an area larger than the entire state of Massachusetts), it was also a rugged canyon wilderness with no roads or towns, an area largely unexplored, unmapped, and uninhabited. And the team's journey would involve traveling at least four hundred miles on horseback, sleeping on the ground for nearly two months, and battling the ever-present demons of the desert thirst, fatigue, and suffocating heat-all in the name of scientific inquiry. We call the team the "Crimson Cowboys," a reference to Harvard University's official school color and nickname. In a sense, this expedition marked the end of an era when archaeology was about adventure and discovery. Archaeology would eventually evolve into a structured science with laboratory analyses, mathematical formulas, predictive modeling, and other esoteric pursuits. Today, computers are more important to archaeologists than trowels. The Crimson Cowboys, then, are a reminder of a bygone day when archaeology was rooted in the thrill of discovery
