DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura Seifert.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Women’s Work: Archaeology and Mothering" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Situated halfway between Hawaii and the Philippines, Wake Atoll is devoid of any natural source of...

These ceramics were then exported globally, transporting classical visions to consumers of multiple socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds. Using an assemblage of...
