This is an abstract from the "Integrating Isotope Analyses: The State of Play and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Isotope studies have become a common and effective method for inferring the geographic origins of a wide range of materials in various research disciplines, including archaeology. In recent years, such isotope approaches have also become more rigorous and quantitative, and increasingly make use of isoscapes (isotope...
Developmental Period Migration in the Northern Rio Grande (2018)
The origin of Tanoan language diversification is inextricably linked to the debate around the origin of the Tewa. While paleodemographic, bioarchaeological, linguistic, and DNA evidence support a thirteenth century Mesa Verde-Northern Rio Grande migration, the lack of clear material culture evidence of this migration is perplexing. Critical to this discussion is the possibility of an earlier, tenth century migration of (presumably) Proto-Tiwa speakers from the Upper San Juan region into the...
Diet and in-migration in the Tlajinga District of Teotihuacan: New insights from stable isotope analysis and AMS radiocarbon dating. (2017)
Thirty years ago, the apartment compound known as Tlajinga 33 (33:S3W1) in the southern district of Teotihuacan was extensively excavated, resulting in the recovery of over 100 individuals. A paleodemographic study of these individuals indicated that chronic morbidity was a serious health issue among residents. Additionally, previous geochemical analysis from 25 of these individuals suggested that at least 29% of residents grew up outside of Teotihuacan. Due to chronic health issues, the...
Dog Domestication and the Dual Dispersal of People and Dogs into the Americas (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Dogs in the Archaeological Record" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Advances in the isolation and sequencing of ancient DNA have begun to reveal the population histories of both people and dogs. Over the last 10,000 years, the genetic signatures of ancient dog remains have been linked with known human dispersals in regions such as the Arctic and the remote Pacific. It is suspected, however, that this relationship has a...
The Downstream Effects of Abandonment: Immigration and Transformation on the 14th Century Georgia Coast, USA (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. By 1390 CE, the Mississippian chiefdoms of the Savannah River Valley (SRV) had been depopulated. Settlement and radiocarbon evidence suggest that the former residents of the SRV spread to neighboring regions. On the Georgia Coast, immigrants arrived into a rapidly changing context. Settlement expansion meant the establishment of new locales, occupied for the...

The Edge of Humanity: Why Commonsensical Notions about Nature Impede our Understandings of Structural Violence in the Arizona Desert (2015)
Since the 1990’s Border Patrol has employed a strategy known as "Prevention Through Deterrence." This policy emphasizes heightened security around urban ports of entry so that undocumented migrants will attempt to cross the border in more remote areas that are difficult to traverse but easy for law enforcement to patrol. Rather than deterring migration, hundreds of thousands of people each year now spend days in the desert attempting to walk across one of the most extreme environments in North...
The effects of temporal coarse-graining on inferred networks of human movement (2015)
Analyses using tree-ring dates provide an attractive test-bed for examining effects of temporal coarse-graining in archaeological contexts, due to the high-resolution of dendrochronology. After compiling a database of every known tree-ring date in the U.S. Southwest, we use tree-ring-date counts and locations as proxies for gridded human population estimates in the upland portions of the SW US. Grid-squares that lose dates are connected to nearby grid squares that gain dates as we move from one...
En Las Vías: Suffering and Triage on the Central American Trail (2016)
Undocumented Central Americans migrating to the United States must first cross the entire country of Mexico. In order to make this clandestine crossing the majority of people ride on the tops of deadly freight trains and walk along train tracks that traverse hundreds of miles of remote Mexican wilderness. This perilous journey can last anywhere from weeks to several months. During this stage of migration people suffer from a variety of injuries and ailments including (but not limited to)...
Environment, Climate, and Mississippian Origins in the Lower Mississippi Valley and the Mississippi River Delta (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Migration and Climate Change: The Spread of Mississippian Culture" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Lower Mississippi Valley (LMV) and Mississippi River Delta (MRD) are dramatically impacted by long-term and seasonal fluctuations in water levels, storm cycles, and flooding. In both regions, unpredictable storm events, upstream changes in water flow, and increased water salinity (as well as a host of other factors)...
Erasure, Disappearance, and Accountability: Rethinking Taphonomy and Site Formation Processes in the Sonoran Desert (2024)
This is an abstract from the "AD 1150 to the Present: Ancient Political Economy to Contemporary Materiality—Archaeological Anthropology in Honor of Jeanne E. Arnold" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 1994, the US Border Patrol formalized a boundary enforcement strategy known as “Prevention Through Deterrence” (PTD) that employs the natural environment as a weapon to impede the movement of undocumented border crossers. PTD has subsequently been...
Ethnogenesis at the Lynch Site (25BD1), Nebraska through Pottery Analysis (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Lynch site occupied in the late 1200s saw substantial environmental and population shifts in the context of profound regional sociopolitical and demographic changes. Oneota groups expanded into the east-central Great Plains at the same time that indigenous Plains farmers abandoned the western parts of their ranges and moved east. Interactions between these...
Evaluating Potential Time Signatures within Extant Microbial Communities in Stratified Soils at the La Prele Mammoth Site (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent studies of microbial communities in terrestrial environments have shown that an input of environmental "triggers" within soil substrate can activate dormant soil microorganisms. Additionally, deep within marine coal deposits, it has been discovered that forest soil microbes thrive, despite their oceanic surroundings. However, terrestrial microbial...
Evaluating Prehistoric Migration in Pacific Coastal Nicaragua through the Analysis of Strontium Isotope Ratios (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Strontium isotopes are increasingly used to infer migration amongst ancient populations. The 87Sr/86Sr ratio in tooth enamel is primarily influenced by the underlying geology of the region where an individual resided during tooth formation in childhood or adolescence. Older geological formations tend to present a higher 87Sr/86Sr ratio, while lower ratios...
Evaluation of Occupation History using Comparative Lithic Analysis at the Point Pueblo LA 8619, San Juan County, New Mexico (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Point Site, LA 8619, is located along the San Juan River in San Juan County, New Mexico. LA 8619 is a multicomponent site within the Point Community of the Middle San Juan Tradition. Based upon preliminary ceramic analysis, the occupation at the Point Pueblo dates from the AD 900s to abandonment in AD 1300, by Totah, Chaco, and Mesa Verde cultural...
