Dana Bardolph
I am an anthropological archaeologist and specialist in paleoethnobotany. My research broadly focuses on foodways, agricultural production, social life, political change, culture contact, gender, identity, and labor in the ancient world. I employ a comparative, cross-cultural approach and have conducted field and laboratory research in multiple regions, including the Midwestern United States (the area of my current field project), Peru, Mexico, and the Caribbean, to examine the sociopolitical dynamics that underpin human-ecological interactions in New World agricultural societies. In addition to my archaeological research, I am interested in ethical issues and discipline sociopolitics, including gender equity and safety in the archaeological profession.
