A pioneering art historian and legendary figure in Maya archaeology\, Dr. Coggins stood with Ian Graham in calling for ethical stewardship of cultural heritage. \nJoin us for an illuminating evening as Dr. Coggins recounts her groundbreaking advocacy that helped shape U.S. policy and UNESCO conventions on cultural property. With vivid stories and a special video presentation\, she reflects on her collaborations with notable figures such as Tatiana Proskouriakoff and the role of the Peabody Museum in the protection of Maya heritage. This conversation\, moderated by Maya Corpus Director Barbara Fash and research associate Steven Quinchia\, will bring to life the intersection of scholarship\, activism\, and international policy—and the extraordinary woman who helped change the course of cultural preservation. \nA reception will follow in the galleries of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology\, 11 Divinity Avenue. \nFree admission. Free event parking at the 52 Oxford Street Garage starting at 4:00 pm. Presented by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology and the Harvard Museums of Science and Culture. \nPhoto: Tikal central plaza\, Guatemala
