Lumping and Splitting: Design Variation on Mancos Black-on-white Pottery in the Central Mesa Verde Region (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Within the central Mesa Verde region, the Mancos Black-on-white pottery type is an enduring enigma. Mancos Black-on-white was produced from A.D. 920–1180 and includes a wide range in variation in design and technology. During its production period, nearly identical designs were used across the broader Ancestral Pueblo world. In the Cibola and Kayenta regions,...
Macaws on Pots: Images, Symbolism, and Deposition at Homol’ovi (2018)
Widespread archaeological evidence—including egg shells and skeletal remains recovered from archaeological sites as well as imagery on pottery, kiva murals, and rock art—suggests that macaws, their feathers, and their imagery played important roles in ancient Puebloan society. Ethnographic accounts also indicate the importance of macaws to ancient Puebloan peoples and modern groups. Macaws have been interpreted as indicators of exchange, aspects of intricate ritual systems, and indexes of social...
Made locally or long-distance transportation? New evidence on ceramic vessels from salt production sites from the Late Shang Period in North Shandong (2017)
Research on salt production in Ancient China has been examining the function, typology, and chronology of a certain type of ceramic vessel, the kuixingqi (Helmet-shaped vessel). Instead of examining typology of Kuixingqi vessels from salt workshops at North Shandong region, dated to 3000 BC, I began by looking at how those Kuixingqi vessels made and transported into the salt workshops, if those vessels are not made locally. I will present the findings of the ceramic petrographic analysis...

Maize, Womanhood, and Matrilineality: A Study from the Mississippian Site of Moundville, Alabama (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Kin, Clan, and House: Social Relatedness in the Archaeology of North American Societies" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ethnohistoric and ethnographic evidence demonstrates that various factors can influence kinship patterns, but among the most influential are those related to subsistence. However, such findings are rarely applied to the prehistoric American South, where researchers largely project the matrilineal...
Making Pottery, Making Identity: Geochemical and Design Analyses from a Small Middle San Juan Site, New Mexico (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Step by Step: Tracing World Potting Traditions through Ceramic Petrography" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This study addresses both the geochemical composition and the decorative content of ceramic sherds recovered from the Box B Site (LA 16660), New Mexico. Thorough and successful ceramic analyses by Barbara Mills, Hayward Franklin, and Elizabeth Garrett took place in the 1980s. This current project reexamines white...

Manufacture of Late Neolithic Pottery from the Southern Balkans: An Integrative Approach (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Throughout their life, from manufacture to final discard, ceramic vessels participated in different human activities within Neolithic communities throughout the Balkans. As a result, vessels, potters, and users are involved in a relational interaction leading to a continuous negotiation of various aspects of the Neolithic world. The outcome of this relation is...
Margaret Lyneis and the Pottery Traditions of Corn Creek and Ash Meadows in Southern Nevada (2018)
Margaret Lyneis examined pottery collected from surface and excavation contexts at two of southern Nevada’s desert oases, Desert National Wildlife Refuge and Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. These rich islands of springs and lush vegetation were occupied fairly continuously from the Early Archaic period, with farming practiced during the Formative and Post-Formative periods. Dr. Lyneis’ investigations demonstrated, for the first time, that pottery was made locally during the later periods,...

Lithics, ceramics, and other artifacts, recovered from the 2017 Colha, Belize field season, are utilized to gain insight into chronological developments and changes at the ancient Maya site. Maya material culture recovered from excavations at Colha are presented and interpreted by context. Each artifact category is briefly defined, described, and placed into a general site context. The estimated time range for the recovered material culture extends from the Late Archaic to the Late Preclassic....
Material Culture and Technological Innovation in Colonial Soconusco, Chiapas, Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "After Cortés: Archaeological Legacies of the European Invasion in Mesoamerica" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Soconusco region of Chiapas, Mexico, quickly attracted the attention of the Spanish invaders in the Early Colonial period because of the valuable cacao produced in the area. Intensive trade brought long-distance merchants to Soconusco bringing trade goods to exchange for cacao, as had been the case in the...
Material Culture in Pambamarca Ecuador: Comparing Finds from Two Inkan Fortresses (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As the Inka expanded north at the end of the 15th century, they were met with fierce resistance from the País Caranqui societies in Northern Ecuador. A prolonged standoff occurred, visible in the plethora of fortresses along the northern frontier. Excavations completed by the Pambamarca Archaeology Project north of Quito at three Inka fortresses within the...
The Material Culture of Back-to-Africa: Object Reinvention in the Development of Africa's First Republic (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Reinvent, Reclaim, Redefine: Considerations of "Reuse" in Archaeological Contexts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Nineteenth-century Black American and Caribbean settlers of the Back-to-Africa movement to Liberia brought with them a wide variety of objects for building new lives and landscapes for their emancipatory and civilizing mission in West Africa. The migrants arrived to lands already inhabited by people long...
The Materiality of Feasting: Pottery as an Indicator of Ritual Practice in Late Woodland Virginia (2018)
The Hatch site in Prince George County, Virginia is arguably among the most significant precolonial sites in the region. After it was excavated in the 1980s, the collection was stored away and went largely unstudied for the last thirty years. When I first began my research on this ‘orphaned’ site, I was struck by the large pit features containing evidence of ritual feasting and a wide variety of ceramic types. Adhering to the old trope that ‘pots equal people’, I initially assumed that this site...
