A Review of Paleodemographic Changes in Prehispanic Bolivia Using a Countrywide Assessment of Radiocarbon Dates (2018)
In this poster, I introduce a new database containing the most updated and comprehensive series of geo-referenced radiocarbon dates collected from archaeological sites located within the entire country of Bolivia. The resulting Bolivian Radiocarbon Database reviews and incorporates data from previous syntheses as well as a number of additional dates mostly available in rare publications and recent research. Using recommendations posted in previous studies, I discuss some of the potential and...

The Role of Edge Effects in Late Holocene Archaeological Radiocarbon Time Series (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Global Perspectives on Climate-Human Population Dynamics During the Late Holocene" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Many archaeological radiocarbon time-series throughout the world display a decline of radiocarbon date frequencies from ca. 900-600 cal BP. In this presentation we examine alternative hypotheses that may explain these trends. We analyze whether dramatic declines in radiocarbon date frequencies are due to...

Science in Archaeology: Ann Ramenofsky’s Contributions (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Ann F. Ramenofsky: Papers in Honor of a Non-Normative Career" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ann Ramenofsky has a record of scholarship in archaeology in which one can identify a consistent application of a science-based approach. This approach recognizes: the systematic nature of science; the distinction between conceptual and empirical domains; the role of unit formation in science, the complementary roles of theory...
Second Line Resources? Evaluating the Relationship Between Human Demography and Aquatic Resource Use During the Eastern Archaic (2017)
As part of its investigations the Eastern Archaic Faunal Working Group (EAFWG) has been examining multiple explanatory models for Archaic variability and change in aquatic resource use. One traditional model argues that the intensified use of aquatic animals can be attributed to population growth and aggregation. In order to test this model the EAFWG explored possible methods for reconstructing Archaic population demographics. Until recently broad-scale Archaic population reconstruction has...

Settlement and Demography in the Greater Mimbres Region (2007)
The database presented here contains information on all major habitation sites and smaller habitation sites from major surveys across the most densely populated portions of the Mimbres region (Mimbres Valley, Eastern Mimbres area, and the Upper Gila). The database is relatively complete for sites that date between AD 1000 and 1450 but also includes limited information on major earlier components dating between AD 200-1000.

Sex-Specific Patterns of Survival in the Context of Urbanization and Environmental Change in Medieval and Post-medieval London, England (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The State of the Art in Medieval European Archaeology: New Discoveries, Future Directions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Medieval and post-medieval populations in England experienced several crises, including famines and plague epidemics. These occurred at a time of increasing social inequality, urbanization, and shifting climatic conditions. This study examines temporal trends in survivorship (as a proxy for health)...
Sicán Politics and Population: Nuclear Genomic Perspective (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Why are there clustered and dispersed Middle Sicán (900-1100CE) monumental mounds in the Lambayeque region of northern coastal Peru? What do these mounds reveal about Sicán politics and demography? As one investigative avenue to answer these questions, DNA was extracted from 15 human burials excavated at three mounds of the Sicán capital: Ventanas, Loro,...
A Simple Fiscal-Demographic Model of the Classic Maya Collapse (2016)
The Classic Maya civilization flourished from approximately 200 A.D. to 800 A.D. in the southern reaches of the Yucatan Peninsula. Population increased throughout the period, accelerating towards the end, finally falling to a small fraction of its former peak level (10% or less) in a relatively short span of time (50-100 years). Even though Maya civilization continued in the northern end of Yucatan Peninsula, the holy kings who had been the protagonists of Classic Maya civilization disappeared...
A Simple Model of Long-term Population Expansion and Recession (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Global Perspectives on Human Population Dynamics, Innovation, and Ecosystem Change" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Over the last 12,000 years human populations have expanded and transformed critical earth systems. Yet, a key unresolved question in the environmental and social sciences remains: Why did human populations grow and, sometimes, decline in the first place? Our research builds on 20 years of intense...

Some Thoughts on "Clovis": Where Were They From, Where Did They Go, Where Do They Fit in the Peopling of the Western Hemisphere (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This talk will present some opinions I have about Clovis - woven with facts to convince the skeptical. I will define what I mean by "Clovis", show what some others mean by "Clovis", and add some additional ways to think about "Clovis" in both synchronic and diachronic directions. I will present what I think about its origins and about where we might be finding...
SPD Analysis Sheds Light on North Spanish Mesolithic Demography (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Local and/or Exotic Interactions: Symbols, Materials, and Societies" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Summed probability distributions of radiocarbon dates (SPD curves) have become an increasingly popular tool with which to reconstruct prehistoric population dynamics. They are used here to test models of demographic change using Mesolithic data from Cantabria and the middle Ebro valley. Local, regional, and global...

Statistically Comparing Demographic Distributions of Mortuary Assemblages (2017)
This analysis includes data from 50 archaeological mortuary assemblages variously attributed to sacrifice, warfare, and standard mortality processes. The research compares two sites, both attributed to sacrifice, to those produced by the two alternative processes of warfare and standard mortality and explores the question of whether these assemblages may be differentiated from them based on the age distribution of deaths. The analysis incorporates a novel feature in that preservation bias is...
