An Overview of the Historic Utilization of Caves in Florida (2013)
For thousands of years people have utilized cave environments in the southeastern United States. Caves were used for shelter, burials, and religious ceremonies, and were mined for natural resources by both prehistoric and historic people. Historically, caves in Florida were used for shelter, trash deposition, as quarries, and played a developmental role in Florida’s early tourism. Many of these caves still affect the lives of people in Florida through tourism, recreation, and scientific...

Overwhelmed with Possibilities: A Model for Urban Heritage Tourism Development (2015)
The city of Pensacola, FL has been attempting to create a heritage tourism industry for half a century but has never achieved the same level of success of some of the most notable destinations they were trying to emulate. This is, in part, due to a signifiant level of development in the historic district, much of which is now historic as well, combined with an impressively complex history concentrated in a relatively small area. If Pensacola, and any community in a similar sutation, is to...
Oyster Exploitation and Environmental Reconstruction in Historic Colonial Williamsburg (2016)

"The (Pacific North)West Is The Best:" Marley Brown's Influence Comes Full Circle (2015)
In the past twenty years, historical archaeology in the American West has developed into a mature field of study. Prior to this time, with a few notable exceptions, historical archaeology in the United States was firmly rooted to the east of the Mississippi. Many budding historical archaeologists in the west went east to become initiated to the discipline. For many of these undergraduate and graduate students, Marley Brown was an embedded westerner, who opened the door of the eastern...

Paddling Through the Past- A Landscape Archaeological Survey of a Contested Waterway (2013)

In the summer of 2012, a team of archaeologists, educators and artists undertook a canoe-based landscape archaeological survey of the region. The team investigated colonial period forts and Native sites with the goal of discerning whether the placement of sites within the landscape was purely strategic, or whether...
Page-Ladson and Submerged Late Pleistocene Sites along the Aucilla River, Florida, and their Importance to First Americans Archaeology (2018)
Late Pleistocene terrestrial archaeological sites now lie submerged in the karstic river systems of Florida. Nowhere is this more apparent than along the Aucilla River where dozens of inundated prehistoric sites are known. One of the most important sites is Page-Ladson, which has yielded some of the earliest unequivocal evidence for pre-Clovis occupation in North America, dating back to 14,550 cal yr B.P. At that time, sea levels had fallen approximately 100 m and people utilized a pond in...
