Dr. Erin Whitson
Dr. Erin Whitson’s most recent work centers on uncovering the physical traces of one of America’s most consequential and painful migrations—the Trail of Tears. As a doctoral researcher at the Binghamton University Department of Anthropology, she has led an archaeological investigation into Cherokee encampments in Crawford County, Missouri, focusing on identifying and interpreting the temporary sites used along the northern route.
