Creating Community at Singer-Move: Feasting and Craft Production in a Residential Precinct (2018)
During its estimated 400-year history of occupation, Singer-Moye was a focal point of prehistoric settlement and socio-political development in the Lower Chattahoochee River Valley of southwestern Georgia (USA).

Crushing Traditional Hohokam Ceramic Typology: Grog Temper in the Early Formative Period (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Preliminary analysis of ceramic artifacts from Early Formative contexts at AZ T:12:70(ASM) (Pueblo Patricio) in Phoenix, Arizona, identified grog (crushed sherds) in addition to local tempering materials. Four sherds selected for petrographic analysis from radiocarbon-dated contexts confirmed the identified material is grog. Subsequent single-grain optical...

Cultural Changes During the Protohistoric Period: An Oneota Case Study (2018)
George Milner points out in his 2015 work, "Population Decline and Culture Change in the American Midcontinent: Bridging the Prehistoric and Historic Divide", that reactions and changes by Native Americans during the Protohistoric period were highly localized, and that each tribe was affected differently through direct and indirect contacts with Europeans. The La Crosse locality was inhabited by the Oneota until c. 1625 when the area was abandoned for the Riceford Creek locality (in southeastern...

Using...
Cultural implications of neutron activation analysis of ceramics from Palmitopamba, Ecuador (2016)
The cloud forest site of Palmitopamba in northwestern Ecuador was occupied for centuries by the Yumbos prior to the arrival of Incas around 1500. Instrumental neutron activation analysis has been performed on ceramics we have excavated there and which represent those two groups, on a third pottery complex widely identified in Ecuador as Cosanga or Panzaleo, and on raw clay samples from the vicinity of Palmitopamba. The results of some 140 analyses are presented. These imply that the Inca pottery...
