For long archaeology has relied on its inherited connections with pop culture and images of adventure and discovery, but as generations pass archaeology has to make a renewed effort to capture the public’s attention and interest. This situation is not exclusive to archaeology and has resulted in a strong investment in science communication in Europe, but our field has remained quite unrepresented on its developments.  Through my experience as national winner of the science competition Famelab,...

Coastal North Carolina has 3,375 miles of shoreline, much of it fronting low-lying lands increasingly vulnerable to flooding and inundation exacerbated by a long-term process of sea-level rise. This vulnerability has made the area a fruitful laboratory for environmental science studies of sea level change and its environmental and societal effects. But the issue of forecasting sea level rise for public policy and land use management has become controversial due in part to the difficulty of...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The International Space Station (ISS) is a unique and critical resource for benefits to Earth and the future of space exploration. Since 1998, it is the only place in the universe where people can perform experiments where the absence of gravity is a new variable. But why bother? Why should the public care, and why should the government spend its money on this amazing orbiting...

This is an abstract from the "Technology and Public Outreach" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Technological advancments have been an aid to musuems, but not all facilities may be able to afford the newest gadets. Quick response (QR) codes offer a cost effective way for every museum to impliment new technology into their displays. Social media offers a quick and cheap means of both advertising a location and dispensing information to a large range...

This is an abstract from the "Interdisciplinary Approaches to Rock Art Documentation, Research, and Analysis" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Setting and geographic context have always been integral to rock art analysis and are important in combination with symbolic content for determining site function. The Weeksville Pictographs in western Montana exemplify intentional selection of a location for pre- and postcontact rock art by both Natives and...
