Cincinnati Museum Center is gearing up to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence. As part of our Past Forward at CMC series, we'll post a handful of podcast shorts diving into topics across American history through the lens of our collections. 

Today, we're talking about two American icons - turkey and corn - with Bob Genheimer, our George Rieveschl Curator of Archaeology, and Tyler Swinney, our NAGPRA Manager and Tribal Liaison. We'll dive into the history of turkey and corn, how humans have cultivated them for thousands of years, and their importance to America's Native Peoples as well as settlers from Europe and beyond.
