"I
have known Rusty Bowman for many years. While I was Director
of the Herrett Center for Arts and Science, he made numerous
trips there to use our reference library, examine exhibit
specimens, and look at items stored in the Herrett collection
of Anthropology. I always enjoyed his visits, and took more
knowledge away from him than I contributed." |

"...As
I transitioned to my present position of Professor of Anthropology,
Rusty was instrumental in teaching me some new skills. I
have used many of these new skills in offering lab classes
for my anthropology students. So, his influence extends
well beyond his replicas. One key lesson I learned from
him is the importance of being as authentic as possible
in the reconstruction of ancient technologies. This, of
course, requires a keen sense of observation, knowledge
of indigenous raw materials, and patience to learn how to
manipulate those things. Rusty excels in all of those skills."
