This paper considers how material culture reflects the manipulation and creation of identity through a reexamination of the Chincha ceramic typology using ceramic vessels recovered from two mid- Chincha Valley domestic contexts dating to the Late Intermediate Period (LIP) (1000-1400 AD) and the Late Horizon (LH) (1400-1532 AD). The Chincha Kingdom was an extensive and powerful trading polity that emerged during the LIP and continued into the LH. Previous studies identify three distinct zones...
Fine Dining in the Borderlands: Exploring Spanish colonial group identity in Seventeenth-Century New Mexico (2017)
Previous research on seventeenth-century Spanish settlers in New Mexico has concluded that the colonists were composed of a population that blended Spanish and indigenous Puebloan groups genetically and culturally, which is often described as mestizo. However, there is no single, consistently used definition of mestizo or its archaeological expression. Furthermore, defining a population as mestizo ignores individual and household formulations of identity. So, what, if anything, united...
A Finer View of Regional Socio-political and Economic Change in the Southeast Aegean: Ceramic Production along the Datça Peninsula (2017)
Situated along the dramatic Datça Peninsula in southwest Anatolia, the port-town of Burgaz provides a flourishing landscape of ceramic production and valuable case study for investigating the intersection of local dynamics and larger Mediterranean social, political, and economic shifts. During the Archaic and Classical periods Burgaz developed into a thriving commercial and cultural center by virtue of its proximity to fertile land and centrality within the Gulf of Hisarönü. From the mid-fourth...
A Fingerprint Assemblage from a Late Bronze Age Canaanite Cultic Enclosure at Tel Burna in the Southern Levant: The Division of Labor According to Age and Sex (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The identity of producers is a perennial question in the anthropological and archaeological study of craft production. Who made the vessels and figurines used for ritual practice and feasting in the Canaanite cultic enclosure at Tel Burna? Our project attempts to answer this question by determining the age and sex of fingerprints preserved on a selection...

Fired Fingerprints: A Point of Pines Pueblo Corrugated Ceramic Analysis (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Point of Pines Pueblo is a key site for understanding the Kayenta migration to the Mogollon and how communities adapt or maintain practices while experiencing changing demographics. This study analyzes practices in corrugated jar production before, during, and after the migration in the Point of Pines area. Exposed coils on corrugated jars allows us to...

Food for Thought? The Use of Ceramic “Baby” Bottles in Roman Britain (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Motherhood" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the mid-nineteenth century in Britain, a small collection of Roman spouted ceramic vessels have been assigned the functional description of “infant feeders” or “baby bottles,” primarily through their recovery from infant and child burial contexts. Vessels of this type have been recorded from across the Roman Empire, yet in Britain they are relatively...
Foodways and Technological Transformation in the Upper Great Lakes: A Multidimensional Analysis of Woodland Pottery from the Cloudman Site (20CH6) (2018)
A novel combination of analytic methods is used to address the decades-long debate about diachronic subsistence pattern change during the Woodland period (AD 1 – 1600) in the Upper Great Lakes of North America. While some have argued for dietary continuity throughout the regional Woodland, others maintain that certain specific resources—including fish, wild starchy plants, and/or maize—were more intensively exploited over time. The Cloudman site (20CH6), located on an island off Michigan’s...
Foodways as Agentive Response to Disaster in Colonial New Orleans (2024)
This is an abstract from the "*SE New Orleans and Its Environs: Historical Archaeology and Environmental Precarity" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Disasters have plagued the City of New Orleans since its founding in 1718. The citizens of New Orleans have adapted and rebuilt in the wake of each catastrophe. Two fires destroyed significant parts of the colony in the eighteenth century. Little attention has been paid to the short or long-term effects...
A Foreign Ingredient in a Local Tradition: Chaco Canyon Pottery and the Chaco–Chuska Connection (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the mid-twentieth century, Anna Shepard discovered that much of the pottery found in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, was apparently produced in the Chuska mountain and slope area some 70 km to the west. Since then, Southwest archaeologists have studied the dynamics of Chaco–Chuska interaction and the intensity and complexity of Southwest exchange patterns. As...

The Foundational Element of Mobile Land-Use Systems in the Initial Late Pleistocene–Early Holocene Adoption of Ceramic Vessels in the Transbaikal Region, Siberia (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Some of the earliest ceramic vessels worldwide were used by foraging communities in NE Asia (i.e., Japan, Russian Far East) by roughly 16,000 years ago (i.e., Iizuka 2018). Subsequently, in the Transbaikal region of eastern Siberia the earliest adoption of ceramics by 15,000 or 7000 cal BP (see Hommel 2017; Iizuka 2019; Terry 2022) is thought to have...

Fragmentary Ceramic Assemblages as a Record of Ritual Practice at Las Cuevas, Belize (2018)
The most common artifacts found in Maya caves are unslipped and monochrome slipped ceramic sherds. The smashing of ceramic vessels as an element of ritual practice is recorded ethnographically among some twentieth-century Maya groups. Other Maya groups have been documented collecting sherds from domestic middens and depositing them at sacred sites. If caves were venues for the former type of behavior in antiquity, one would expect to find a high percentage of refitting sherds in their...
Fragments of Identity: A Comparative Study of Terminal Formative Figurines from Coastal Oaxaca, MX (2018)
The Terminal Formative period (150BCE-250CE) in Coastal Oaxaca, Mexico was a time of urbanization and increasing political interaction. The Terminal Formative included the emergence of an urban center at the site of Río Viejo, which may have extended political influence over surrounding communities. During this period, on the coast of Oaxaca, ceramic figurines were a ubiquitous medium for expression and identity in political/cultural exchanges. By comparing ceramic figurines from the site of Rio...
French Ceramics: Compositional and Descriptive Data (2014)
This dataset contains compositional (elemental abundance) and descriptive data for a total of 319 ceramic specimens from France, analyzed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). These data were generated by neutron activation analysis (NAA) at LBNL between the late 1960s and early 1990s. Data from the LBNL were transferred to the Archaeometry Laboratory at the University of Missouri, where they were digitized for distribution through tDAR. Elemental abundance data could not be...
