Since 2011, I have conducted community-based archaeology at the former Mount Pleasant Indian Industrial Boarding School in collaboration with the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe of Michigan and City of Mount Pleasant. Elsewhere I have presented theoretical analyses federal Indian boarding schools as total institutions that utilized landscape design in assimilationist goals. In this paper, however, I will discuss the role of landscape as a component of analysis in community-based participatory research....
Remorseful Returns: What to do with Returned Surface-Collected Items from National Park Service Units (2019)
This is an abstract from the "To Curate or Not to Curate: Surprises, Remorse, and Archaeological Grey Area" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Millions of surface-collected artifacts (and natural features for that matter) have been and are being stolen from public lands by visitors. Some are returned, often with letters indicating guilt and remorse. Most of these items have little to no provenience information attached. This paper demonstrates the...
A Remote Sensing Investigation of Historic Osborn, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Dayton, Ohio flood of 1913 prompted construction of five dams along the Great Miami River and its tributaries. Huffman Dam and its detention basin’s design put the small town of Osborn, which dates to the mid-19th century, at risk of future flooding. As a result, many of the community’s homes and businesses were moved between 1922 and 1924. In coordination with Wright-Patterson...
Remote Sensing of Archaeological Landscapes at Picuris Pueblo (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Collaborative Archaeology at Picuris Pueblo: The New History" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 2022, our team conducted experimental surveys at Picuris Pueblo using a new, drone-deployed lidar sensor alongside aerial thermal and color imaging to successfully map extensive remains of ancestral agricultural terraces and related archaeological features. This paper presents results of our 2023 efforts to expand on our...
Remote Sensing of Chacoan Roads in the Middle San Juan Region (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This poster demonstrates recent applications of remotely sensed data to track Chacoan roads in the Middle San Juan Region, specifically the use of high resolution (1 meter) Digital Elevation Models obtained from Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data and multispectral imagery obtained from the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission Reflectance Radiometer...
Remote Sensing of Lakes in Telemark, Norway (2013)
In the summer of 2012, the research charity ProMare and its partners at the Norsk Maritimt Museum returned to Lake Bandak in the Telemark region of Norway to revisit the two-dozen new shipwrecks that were discovered during their 2010 field season. That year, sonar imaging revealed wrecks in excellent condition and from many periods – from what could be vessels as old as Bronze Age log-boats to more modern 19th-century trading ships nearly 100 feet in length. Due to the lack of detail provided...
Remote Sensing to Identify Chaco Roads: A Case Study of the North Road (2018)
The focus of this research is to demonstrate the efficacy of data processing methodologies of remotely sensed data to detect the Chacoan Great North Road between Pueblo Alto and Pierre’s group. This research highlights a scaled approach to the analysis and processing of remotely sensed data to efficiently identify prehispanic roads. The data analyzed in this project includes: thermal infrared multispectral scanner (TIMS), light detection and ranging (LiDAR), orthoimagery from Google Earth and...

Renewed Investigations at Leonard Rockshelter (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Far West Paleoindian Archaeology: Papers from the Next Generation" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Leonard Rockshelter is located in Pershing County, Nevada. Initially mined for bat guano, workers discovered artifacts in 1938, prompting a visit by Robert Heizer. Heizer returned to excavate the site in 1950 and reported more than 2 m of stratified deposits from which he recovered a modest assemblage of perishable and...
The Reorganization of Shell Bead Production in California during the Historic Period (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper explores Olivella shell money bead production among the Chumash during the Mission period in south-central California. An extensive examination of bead-making detritus recovered during recent archaeological excavations at Mission La Purisima Concepcion yielded insight into this extensive industry that flourished in the early nineteenth century....
Repatriation Act of 1991 (NAGPRA) Partial Compliance for the Nellis Air Force Ranges Southern Nevada (1992)
The NAFB wishes to begin the NAGPRA compliance process and has contracted with the DEA to perform an archival search of records and curatories as well as to communicate with persons who may have knowledge of Native American remains or funerary objects which have been reported from graves located on NAFB properties.
Repatriation and a Biological Profile of Indigenous Remains of West Texas (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The subject of this study is an Indigenous pre-Colonial individual from Southwest Texas. The individual was obtained from a private collector and is dated to the Archaic. With tribal approval and support an emphasis has been made to establish an ancestral profile with the end goal of repatriation. To facilitate this, the Indigenous individuals in the...
The Repatriation of Artifacts to Storm, an 18th Century Shipwreck (2018)
In today’s archaeological environment full excavation is almost impossible due to a lack of funding. In order to gain a broad picture of a wreck, the archaeologists at the St Augustine Lighthouse and Maritime Museum collect a wide sample of field specimens, not knowing what artifacts may lay inside the concretions. It isn’t until after the concretions have been x-rayed that conservators can determine which concretions may contain the most useful diagnostic information and start the conservation...

Replicative experiments in the manufacture and use of a Great Basin atlatl (1974)
J. Whittaker: Using stone tools, replicates a NV atlatl with weight. See Hester 1974 (site NV WA 197). Very detailed description and evaluation of manufacture, tools and materials. Some throwing experiments – average 50-60 yards, feels good accuracy attainable, despite few trials and inexperience. [Good paper.]
