Immersive Technology as Meaningful Interpretation and Public Discourse for Archaeology and History (2018)
We are surrounded these days by endless digital online content that interprets historical and/or archaeological materials for the general public. The resolution and amount of this content is increasing more rapidly than the ripeness of a banana in a brown paper bag. But in many ways, this material seems to represent only the objectives of the archaeologists or historians involved. Being able to digitally re-create, or interpret, the past in new and exciting ways is obviously a good thing. But...
Immigration and Transformation in Central California: A Case Study from the Samuel Adams Limekiln Complex, Santa Cruz County, California (2018)
The mid- to late-nineteenth century in California was marked by rapid and dramatic technological, economic, and social change. These transformations were spurred largely by the substantial influx of multiple diasporic communities from across the globe, being both pushed and pulled to the state by various factors. As a result, from their origin, many industries, places, and communities were multi-ethnic, with internal social and labor divisions being based on complex, fluid, and historically...
Immigration Service Records and the Archaeology of Chinatown, The Dalles, Oregon (2015)

The Impact of Coastal Erosion on a Maine Shipwreck: Tools for the Long-Term Study, Management, and Protection of Shipwrecks from Coastal Erosion, Storm Surge, and Sea Level Rise (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Following powerful coastal winter storms and beach erosion, the remains of a shipwreck were repeatedly exposed at Short Sands Beach in York, Maine. The shipwreck received national attention during highly visible exposures following a Nor’easter storm in February 2018. The public is concerned about vandalism and erosion of the site, which has exposed numerous times since 1958. A 2018...
The Impact of COVID on Community Collaboration on the Navajo Nation (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Collaborative and Community Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

The Impact of Humans on Shipwrecks in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Reflections, Practice, and Ethics in Historical Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Shipwrecks are adversely affected by human activities. Some of the most common activities conducted by humans, including recreational SCUBA diving and fishing, have the potential to destroy the data and cultural integrity of these sites. Human interaction with shipwrecks requires additional research to find the...
The Impact of Spanish Colonialism on Florida’s Aboriginal Burials (2013)
Spanish colonialism impacted, transformed, and ultimately extinguished the indigenous populations of Florida. Every aspect of aboriginal culture was affected, including their mortuary practices. Body position and treatment, grave good assemblages, and method of interment were radically altered by the imposition of Catholicism on Florida natives who fell under colonial regimes. Burials associated with mission sites provide insight into the impact of Spanish colonialism on the people they...
The Impact of Temperature on the Transition to Maize Agriculture in the Northern Upland United States Southwest (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Global Perspectives on Climate-Human Population Dynamics During the Late Holocene" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. While the Neolithic Demographic Transition (NDT) spread rapidly across most of Europe (~600 years) after the first introduction of domesticated plants, the NDT is much more gradual in the southwestern United States (1600–2600 years) following the first appearance of maize (ca. 2260–1990 BC). Climate had a...
Impacts of the Coronado Expedition on Social Networks at Piedras Marcadas Pueblo, New Mexico (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Ceramic Petrographers in the Americas: Recent Research and Methodological Advances" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Between late 1540 and early 1541, the Vázquez de Coronado expedition laid siege to the Southern Tiwa ancestral community of Piedras Marcadas and fought the Pueblo’s residents. Eventually, the Coronado expedition left the Rio Grande valley and moved north and east to the Plains. Piedras Marcadas was...

Archaeological investigations of the western portion of Ricochet Village (LA 76465), a late Mesilla to Dona Ana phase site at White Sands Missile Range, encountered clusters of structures and pit features and recovered a sizable assemblage of modified sherds, comprising 3.2 percent of the assemblage. Patterns within...

The Importance of Sediment: A Selection of Julie Stein’s Contributions to Geoarchaeology (2019)
This is an abstract from the "From Middens to Museums: Papers in Honor of Julie K. Stein" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Of Julie Stein’s many contributions to geoarchaeology, her publications regarding sedimentology and stratigraphy with respect to site formation have been particularly influential. By employing earth science methods to elucidate the history of archaeological sediments in a diversity of environments and cultural settings, her work...

Southern Utah University is a small, public, regional, undergraduate institution with many first-generation...
Improving the Effectiveness of Archaeomagnetic Dating in the Southwest (2018)
The theoretical foundations for archaeomagnetic dating are strong, and we enjoy more than 50 years of experience and practice in the Americas. Abundant independently dated burned sediments have supported the progressive refinement of secular variation (dating) curves as observed in the Southwest, improving the precision and replicability of date range interpretations. However, the performance of archaeomagnetic dating has not lived up to its potential as a source of reliable dating information,...
Improving Their Lot: Cultivating Communities & Landscape Change in Maine, 1760-1820 (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Frontier landscapes are often portrayed either as ripe for settlement and replete with resources, or as dangerous, harsh peripheries that pioneers adapted to. Given factors like harsh winters and warfare, the latter portrayal dominates narratives of the Eastern Frontier during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. To interrogate notions of a largely intractable frontier...
