Born in Indiana, Castetter received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and spent most of his academic career at the University of New Mexico. He served as the head of the university's Biology Department for many years and played a key role in its development. Castetter conducted extensive fieldwork among various Native American communities, documenting their knowledge and use of plants for food, medicine, and other purposes. His research contributed significantly to the fields of ethnobotany and ethnoecology, and his publications remain important resources for scholars in these fields. In addition to his research, Castetter was also a dedicated educator and mentor, training many students who went on to have successful careers in botany and related fields. His contributions to science and education have had a lasting impact on the study of plants and indigenous cultures in the southwestern United States." ... "Willis H. Bell (1908-1991) was an American anthropologist known for his work in ethnography and ethnohistory, particularly in relation to the indigenous peoples of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. Bell conducted extensive fieldwork among various Native American communities, documenting their cultural practices, social structures, and historical narratives. His research contributed significantly to our understanding of these cultures and their histories. In addition to his fieldwork, Bell also held academic positions at several universities, where he taught and mentored students in anthropology and related fields. His scholarly writings, which include numerous articles and book chapters, have been widely cited in anthropological literature. Bell's work has had a lasting impact on the field of anthropology, particularly in the study of indigenous cultures in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico."—BookBotX ¶
