Beyond the Map: Engaging with Complex Histories to Support Critical Place-Based Learning Engaging with our local community through a guided tour helped us view the city, our teaching, and our research in a new light.

In our latest article, four teacher educators and a community partner share their experience engaging with a local Black History tour of Memphis and how it inspired collaboration, collective dialogue, and curricular changes.

🧵15/ Between #archaeoastronomy spots, our group enjoyed free time or meaningful guiding: Himeji castle and Imperial Palace grounds both related to Ishi-no-hoden… In our next #JapanTravel #HistoryTour, I want to include a 100m-high view of 486m-long Daisenryo Kofun by air balloon launched last month.

🧵14/ Most tourists in #Osaka overlook the 12x6m 120t Octopus Stone quarried 100km away in Okayama. However, #archaeoastronomy enthusiasts scrutinize its granite and get photographed with it! You may also discover it during a #HistoryTour of Osaka Castle, built in 1583 and used until WW2 🏯

Our #archaeoastronomy group scrutinized it, schoolkids on a #HistoryTour accompanied us in the burial chamber… Another must-touch in #Asuka! Ethereal with autumn leaves or cherry blossoms 🧚

Whole system. The stones in the top left were discovered when digging to create a road. The tortoise and rectangle are the real things. The stones on the right are replicas (the real ones were moved elsewhere because they are fragile). The wooden canal is the archaeologists' best guess (organic materials quickly disappear in humid Japan).

🧵9/ City staff explained the stone tortoise at Sakafune-ishi ruins, mentioned (?) in 1,300 y.o. Nihon Shoki (Chronicles Of #Japan). The sand-filled rectangle filtered spring water into the turtle 🐢 Exciting during a #HistoryTour; #Asuka locals hope @unesco.org soon registers it as a World Heritage!

Buddhist temple Senso-ji.

Sydney once had a rum economy where rum was used as currency. No wonder the city’s first major building was called the Rum Hospital. 🥃💰

The curators liked the results, which cleared any worries regarding cultural respect. #CulturalTourism #HistoryTour

Former school, #Chitose Archaeological Operations Center greatly complemented the burial circles, with its rare local #Jomon artefacts, especially its exciting zoomorphic clay figurine (you must watch from many angles!), clay mask, and man clay figurine. Valuable during a #HistoryTour 👍🏻
