Sovereignty, Colonialism, and Collaboration: Reflections on Archaeological and Ethnographic Work on the Lower Columbia River (2018)
Over the course of the last two decades I have been actively involved in anthropological research along the Lower Columbia River. This includes archaeological field work conducted within and just outside of the boundaries of the Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge in Washington, as well as a heritage ethnography completed in collaboration with the Chinook Indian Nation. This research has happened on both federal and private lands and has involved multiple "stakeholders," including both federally...
Title IX from a Researcher’s Perspective (2018)
No one expects to face any sort of harassment or discrimination and we can feel blindsided when something occurs that puts us, and/or our career, at risk. The question of ‘what next?’ can be daunting, especially in the face of choices that have massive repercussions personally and professionally. Frank discussion of the variety of ways to best maneuver a harassment situation, based on the literature and the experience of peers and colleagues, will be discussed. Additionally, how harassment and...

Trigger Material Culture of the Greco-Roman World (2016)
A recent opinion editorial published in the Columbia Spectator by three undergraduates protested the university’s core curriculum as consisting of “triggering and offensive material that marginalizes student identities in the classroom.” The article was written in response to the assignment of Ovid’s “Metamorphoses,” which contains scenes of rape and sexual assault. The art historical and archaeological record of the Greco-Roman world similarly includes visual and material evidence that we would...
Turnaround Archaeology: Reorienting Archaeology So Its Main Purpose Is the Pursuit of Social Good (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeological Congress: Multivocal Conversations Furthering the World Archaeological Congress Agenda" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This conversation is between archaeologists (both Indigenous and non-Indigenous) and Aboriginal people from the Barunga region of the Northern Territory Australia. We present our emerging vision for reorienting archaeology so its primary purpose is as a tool for social good. We discuss...
Underwater 3D Imaging with Structured Light: Implications for Ethics and Economics (2015)
A prototype underwater 3D imaging technology is discussed that is both inexpensive and creates accurate, high resolution 3D data. We focus on the connection between this technology and archaeological ethics and economics. First, we discuss a cutting edge, low cost, highly portable and user-friendly 3D imaging system using structured light, which has generated very high resolution images in both terrestrial and underwater contexts. Next, we compare it to other low-cost 3D techniques. Finally, we...
Unveiling Silenced Narratives: Ethical Codes and the Challenge of Knowledge Dissemination Facing Middle Eastern Archaeologists (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Thinking with, through, and against Archaeology’s Politics of Knowledge" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper delves into the glaring disparities faced by Middle Eastern archaeologists in disseminating their invaluable knowledge about their own heritage, elucidating how prevailing Western-centric ethical codes fail to redress these issues effectively. A profound asymmetry exists, wherein Middle Eastern...
Uso de Dispositivos Open Hardware en Proyectos Arqueológicos en México (2019)
This is an abstract from the "La Práctica Arqueológica en México en Tiempos de Crisis: Escenarios, Problemáticas Claves, Actores, Acciones y Propuestas" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Desde sus orígenes de relativamente baja tecnología, la arqueología ha evolucionado en una disciplina altamente tecnologizada, que emplea instrumentos para localizar, caracterizar y exhibir al sitios y yacimientos. Los arqueólogos con acceso a tecnología novedosa...
The Virtuous Archaeologist (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Research Hot Off the Trowel in the Upper Gila and Mimbres Areas" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeology is a scientific profession critical to understanding the story humans have written on the world over the course of our history. However, unlike many areas of scientific study, the “subjects” of that scientific inquiry are ultimately people, leading to a complex system of ethics surrounding the treatment of...
What moral and ethical considerations should inform bioarchaeology of care analysis? (2015)
The aim of this presentation is to submit for discussion a proposition of an 'orientation map in Ethics' which may be useful for scholars engaged in Bioarchaeology of care. To this end, I present as a first step the main objections that have been raised in the literature to any attempt of inferring care toward disabled persons in prehistory. I suggest that most of these objections comes from two different ethical backgrounds: a number of them are motivated by the defense of a set of values which...
What's Up with the Ethics Bowl? Introducing a New Ethics and Responsible Research Project for Archaeology (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this poster, the authors introduce a 3-year NSF-funded project to advance knowledge on the pervasiveness and effectiveness of ethics training interventions in archaeology and other STEM fields. Specifically, the project will examine the organization, implementation, and long-term results of competitive ethics case study-based debates, such as the SAA...
Who Makes the List: An Examination of Inclusion and Representation in the Society for American Archaeology’s Annual Meetings (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Beyond Leaky Pipelines: Exploring Gender Inequalities in Archaeological Practice" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A recent paper by Mary Leighton problematizes the culture of archaeological practice and the emphasis on embodying aspects of “performative informality.” Social relationships among archaeologists are attributed to assessments of merit rather than the friendships they often represent, and these relationships...
Why Is There No American Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage? (2019)
This is an abstract from the "New Perspectives on Heritage Protection: Accomplishing Goals" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The question posed in the paper title will be addressed by presenting arguments for the development and adoption of an American Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage similar to the existing European convention on heritage protection. Using the European convention as a model, important components of an...
