Pecos Conference reports are oral, informal, and extemporaneous; 10 minutes in length; and 1) summarize recent field work, 2) identify issues, trends, or problems of culture history, methodology, or interpretation, or 3) update recent activities of long-running programs. Reports are made in an open tent with the assistance of a public address system, without visual aids (slides, PowerPoint, or video) other than handouts or a poster. Papers read to the audience from a printout are discouraged in the spirit of informality. Poster presentations will be made in the vendor/registration tent; the length of time posters are available to view will depend on the number of poster abstracts submitted.
