John Pouley selected as Oregon State Archaeologist

Oregon Heritage, which includes the Oregon State Historic Preservation Office, is pleased to announce that after an intensive competition among three outstanding candidates, the hiring committee selected John Pouley as the next Oregon State Archaeologist.

John is from Seattle, Washington, and received undergraduate degrees from Washington State University (History) and Central Washington University (Archaeology). He completed his graduate studies at Washington State University (Archaeology), where he focused on the precontact Columbia Plateau. John has archaeological experience in the Arctic, Great Basin, and Northwestern Plains. In the past 25 years, John worked for private contractors, a federal agency, a federally recognized tribe, and SHPO. Throughout his career, he has authored numerous reports on his archaeological investigations, nominated archaeological sites and districts to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and published articles on his research in peer reviewed archaeology journals. John enjoys presenting his research at regional and national archaeological conferences, archaeological societies, for tribes, federal and state agencies, SHPOs, universities, primary and secondary schools, and for the general public. John has served as the Oregon State Assistant Archaeologist since 2011.

John's breadth of scholarly and practical knowledge and experience working with the diverse stakeholders in the cultural resource community are important strengths as he brings his energy and enthusiasm to tackle the opportunities and challenges of his new position.

Please join Oregon Heritage in congratulating John!
