Amelia Fay

Amelia Fay is an anthropological archaeologist specializing in the contact-period between Indigenous communities and various European newcomers in what is now Canada from a long-term, historical perspective.  She received a BA in Anthropology from the University of Manitoba (2004), and an MA (2008) and Doctorate (2016) in archaeology from Memorial University of Newfoundland.  She joined the Manitoba Museum in 2013 as Curator of the Hudson’s Bay Company Museum Collection and is actively building the collection to broaden the story of the HBC by exploring the relationships between European employees and First Nations, Inuit, and Métis fur traders as they negotiated space, material culture, and their daily activities.
