Ecology Needs Archaeologists: Archaeology Needs Ecologists (2006)
Over the past five decades, ecologists and archaeologists have dismantled two longstanding theoretical constructs. Ecologists have rejected the “balance of nature” concept and archaeologists have dispelled the myth that indigenous people were “in harmony with nature”. Rejection of these concepts poses critical challenges to both fields as current disciplinary approaches are inadequate to grapple effectively with real-world complexities of socioecological systems. In this review, we focus on the...
Eolian Deposition and Soil Fertility in a Prehistoric Agricultural Complex in Central Arizona (2012)
Prehistoric farmers in the semi-arid American Southwest were challenged by marked spatial and temporal variation in, and overall low levels of, precipitation with which to grow their crops. One strategy they employed was to modify their landscape with rock alignments in order to concentrate surface water flow on their fields. A second challenge that has been less focused on by archaeologists is the need to maintain soil fertility by replenishing nutrients removed from the soil by agricultural...

EXTRACTION OF SEDIMENT SAMPLES FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL AND PARTICULATE ORGANIC MATERIAL FROM THE CHINO VALLEY ROAD CUT, ARIZONA (2010)
Four samples from an exposed fault graben in a road cut in Chino Valley, Arizona, were floated to recover charred material suitable for AMS radiocarbon dating. None of the samples yielded sufficient macrocharcoal for dating; therefore, the samples were processed in an attempt to recover microscopic charcoal/particulate soil organics for dating. Two of these samples yielded particulate soil organics that were submitted for dating.
Fiber Production of Three Varieties of Agave Found on Perry Mesa (2007)
Agave has been exploited throughout time and space for its sap, edible flesh, and fibers. Cultivation of this productive, multi-purpose plant took place within what is now Agua Fria National Monument at the pueblos of La Plata and Pato on Perry Mesa and Richinbar on Black Mesa. At these sites, the heart of the plant was removed for roasting and, subsequently, consumption. This is an experimental archaeology project that examines another aspect of agave exploitation: the fiber processing...
Field Report for Excavation Unit 1E (2004)

These surveys yielded a total of 43 sites and 2018 loci of isolated artifacts. All but one of the sites were located in two borrow areas. These two study areas evidence differences in use of habitation, agriculture and artifact...
