Situating Power and Locating Knowledge: A Paleoethnobotanical Perspective on Late Classic Maya Gender and Social Relations (2008)
Viewing household production in terms of a political economic balance of “give and take” circumvents difficulties related to gender attribution in archaeology and challenges timeless gender stereotypes. This chapter proposes such an archaeological approach to gender by examining the charcoal assemblages from two Late Classic period Maya archaeological sites in the upper Belize Valley of western Belize. These sites occupied distinct positions within a complex political economic landscape, and...
SKOPE: Bringing Continent-scale, Local Paleoenvironmental Data to Researchers and the Public (2016)
This is a copy of the PowerPoint presentation from the SAA Annual Meeting symposium. Interest in the impacts of environmental change on human societies is increasing—and, given the latest IPCC projections, without a moment to spare. Archaeologists are engaging this interest by interpreting past human experiences with environmental change, often by reconstructing environments at local spatial and temporal resolutions most relevant to humans. Crucial tasks ahead include generalizing the plethora...

Small Site Analysis in the Southwest: A Comparative Analysis of Two Communities on Perry Mesa, Arizona (2007)
Landscapes across the American Southwest are littered with prehistoric structures of less than 10 rooms used for a variety of functions – from seasonal field houses, to storage, to year-long residences, to boundary markers. These structures, while largely ignored in much of the archaeological literature, can provide information on the human impact across an entire landscape, instead of simply focusing on the pueblo itself or on the agricultural fields. How, then, can these small architectural...

Some Simple Ways to Use Multiple Uncertain Dates to Estimate Intervals (2020)
Sophisticated computer programs are available to make good use of multiple 14C dates, stratigraphic and other additional information, and produce estimates of true dates of intervals in calendar years. However, a rough idea of the likely duration of an interval (in 14C years) to which multiple 14C dates pertain can be obtained by using the equation Î = K[So2– σm2]1/2, where Î is the estimate of the true duration of the interval, So is the sample standard deviation of the set of reported dates, n...
