Painting Pictures: There Is Madness in Archaeological Methods (2024)
This is an abstract from the "In Defense of Everything! Constructive Engagements with Graeber and Wengrow’s Provocative Contribution" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. One of the critiques *The Dawn of Everything* was subject to was that it failed to provide a clear method or had no method at all and that it was unscientific. There is some truth to these critiques since *The Dawn of Everything* does have its problems. However, underlying these...
Paleoanthropology and Pedagogy: Raising Horizons for the Next Generations (2018)
The 21st century will be remembered as a period of exponential change within paleoanthropology. Though such developments pose academic challenges, an overlooked issue is how we communicate this information to students. A constantly changing foundation of knowledge that increasingly requires an understanding of complex theoretical techniques, coupled with the importance of student satisfaction surveys, educators are faced with a pedagogical dilemma: stick with ‘established’ teaching methods...

Periphery and Perspective: The View from Late Prehispanic Coastal Ecuador (2018)
The small country of Ecuador is sometimes categorized as part of the Andean cultural region and sometimes included in the Intermediate Area. Located as it is next door to archaeological behemoth Peru, Ecuadorian archaeology has frequently been overshadowed by that of its neighbor. Banal oversights, such as maps that show the Inca Empire stretched across the Ecuadorian coast, serve to emphasize the subordinate position of archaeology in the country to the north. Periphery, however, depends on...

The Phantom Lake: Spectral Archaeology in the Tulare Basin (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the 1990s, spectral thematics have grown increasingly present in the humanities, stressing the persistence of memory, traces, and absences in the cultural sphere. Anthropologists likewise have contributed to this moment, as with Justin Armstrong’s spectral ethnography and Theo Kindynis’s' graffiti archaeology. This emerging methodology is promising...
Picking Up the Pieces: The Continued Influence and Impact of Redding's “Breaking the Mold” on Animal Domestication (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Breaking the Mold: A Consideration of the Impacts and Legacies of Richard W. Redding" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Richard Redding’s work on “breaking the mold” on how we explain the development of food production is emblematic of the major contributions he made to zooarchaeological thinking: his creativity, curiosity, and willingness to question dearly held beliefs. In this paper, we overview some of Redding’s many...
Place as Reference: Metonymy in Pueblo Landscapes (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Sacred Southwestern Landscapes: Archaeologies of Religious Ecology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For contemporary Pueblo people in the American Southwest, land, history, and religion are inextricably entwined. Historical events and religious beliefs manifest on the land at different physical and conceptual scales. Over time, places come to represent larger landscapes or philosophical concepts, effectively becoming...

The Position of Archaeology within the Academic Disciplines: Contemporary Views from Practicing Archaeologists (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeology has long occupied a fruitful and yet uneasy position within academia in the United States. Anthropological archaeology has long drawn methods and theories from the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities, which in many ways has expanded the interpretive and analytical possibilities of the discipline. However, it has also caused...
