Exploring Kinship Ties through Mortuary Practice at Cahokia’s Ridge-top Mounds (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. Kinship, roughly defined, is a web of social relationships forming a central part of human lives. Kinship contextualizes patterns of behavior, familial ties, socialization, parenting, and relationships that extend beyond biological affinity. In this paper I explore how kinship ties (fictive or...
Extending Paleoanthropology with the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The Extended Evolutionary Synthesis and Human Origins: Archaeological Perspectives" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Discerning the patterns and processes of human origins has been mostly centered on a gene-eye’s view of fitness landscapes. This interpretive structure is partiality undermined by modern biological thought that emphasizes a more holistic approach to evolution. We suggest that the broader framework of the...

Feminism and Experimentation (2015)
This paper discusses the relationship between conceptual development and material experimentation in feminist research. It uses the work of Ruth Tringham as a fulcrum for wider discussions on how we can and should drive new forms of experimentation as we enter the fourth wave of feminism SAA 2015 abstracts made available in tDAR courtesy of the Society for American Archaeology and Center for Digital Antiquity Collaborative Program to improve digital data in archaeology.

Flintknapping Experiments and Middle-Range Theory (2018)
The manufacture of stone tools in the present and careful recording of resulting flake debris over the past thirty years typified middle range theory building and allowed new insights into past human behavior, especially regarding mobility systems. Walter Klippel, best known for contributions to zooarchaeology, encouraged our going down a rocky path of middle-range theory building. Flintknapping experimentation has generated a great deal of individual data sets but the promise of "big data"...
Following Human-Cattle Assemblage Itineraries: A Non-anthropocentric Perspective on Past Human-Animal Interactions (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Multispecies Frameworks in Archaeological Interpretation: Human-Nonhuman Interactions in the Past, Part I" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Conventional zooarchaeological approaches to the human-animal relationship often offer an anthropocentric perspective where animals mainly serve to fulfill human needs, whether material or symbolic. To address this issue, I propose a decentered model that I applied to the study of...

Formation Processes and Biases in Big Data (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Establishing the Science of Paleolithic Archaeology: The Legacy of Harold Dibble (1951–2018) Part II" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Much of Harold Dibble’s career was focused on the formation processes of the archaeological record. Initially, formation theory encompassed both natural and cultural formation processes; however, in the last few decades most scholars have focused on natural biases in the formation of the...

The Foundations of a Queer Philosophy of Science – Is Archaeology the Answer? (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Despite a long history in the philosophy of the science that has defended the gendered, subjective, and value-laden nature of knowledge production, few (if any) inroads have been made into the formulation of an explicitly queer philosophy of science. In this paper, I argue that archaeologists are uniquely situated to develop such a queer philosophy of science....

From Cattails to Maize: An Archaeobotanical Discussion on the Relationship between Human Groups and Plants during the Archaic and Formative Period (ca. 4000–2000 BP) in the Atacama Desert (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the Atacama Desert, northern Chile, human groups settled during the Archaic and Formative periods (ca. 4000–2000 BP) in the Tiliviche and Aragon sites, located between the coast and the hinterlands. We analyzed and identified the macrobotanical and microbotanical remains from the sites of Tiliviche-1 and Aragón-1 to evaluate the ontologies among the...
“From Enslavement to Empowerment” and What Comes After: Plantation Futures on a Palimpsestic Landscape (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Deepening Archaeology's Engagement with Black Studies" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The idea of the landscape as a palimpsest, where traces of a former version can be read under the present one, came out of Paleolithic archaeology, where thousands of years of human activity must be read through low-density artifact scatters. In 2013’s “Plantation Futures,” Black geographer Katherine McKittrick describes the...
From Households to Communities and Back Again: Bridging Analytical Scales in Search of Conflict, Coalescence, and Communitas (2016)
Archaeological examinations of households and communities have increased dramatically over the past decade. These studies explore the ways people define themselves while simultaneously shaping the social interactions, physical spaces, and material objects that comprise their daily existence. Despite the considerable insights generated by such studies, it is often difficult to bridge analytical scales when research is primarily focused at either the household or community level, with little to...
From Las Brisas to the World: The Genesis of a Periphery-Core Perspective under the Tutelage of Pat Urban and Ed Schortman (2019)
This is an abstract from the "I Love Sherds and Parasites: A Festschrift in Honor of Pat Urban and Ed Schortman" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper explores the influences of Pat and Ed's methods and theories on two friends who first met and worked together in 1990 at the archaeological site of Las Brisas in the Naco Valley, Honduras. Without the incredible opportunities, methodological grounding, and theoretical approach provided by Pat...
From Mayarí to “Protoagricola”: A Discussion on the Creation of Archaeological Cultures in Cuban and Dominican Archaeology (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Coloring Outside the Lines: Re-situating Understandings of the Lifeways of Earliest Peoples of the Circum-Caribbean" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The diversity, complexity, and transformation of early settlers of the Caribbean are some of the main foci in current Caribbean archaeology. Since the 1960s, the presence of ceramics in some of these early contexts in Cuba and Hispaniola have generated new classifications...
