Cultural anthropologists’ and archaeologists’ interest in theorizing identity has a long history. Anthropologists have generally focused on emic perspectives to gain insight into contemporary individual and group identity, while archaeologists have relied mainly on material culture to discern identity in the past, with relatively little attention paid to the views of contemporary peoples. When archaeological interpretations conflict with those of contemporary peoples, serious concerns arise....
A Tale of Two Ranches: Owners, Workers, and the Centering of Whiteness in the Stories of California's Channel Island Ranches (2022)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa Island, two islands in California's Channel Islands National Park, were the homes of ranching operations from the mid-nineteenth century through the close of the twentieth century. The Channel Islands were home to the Chumash and their ancestors for over 10,000 years, until Spain claimed them as part of...

"A Thousand Beads to Each Nation:" A social interpretation of glass trade bead distribution in the Upper Great Lakes region of North America (2015)
Through LA-ICP-MS elemental analyses of 874 glass trade beads from 31 early colonial-era archaeological sites in the Upper Great Lakes region of North America, and from late 17th century contexts historically associated with French exploration of the Gulf Coast of Texas, I identify patterning in the spatial and temporal distribution of European glass-bead recipe groups. Trading relationships among Indigenous peoples and outsiders in this French "Upper Country" took place on a complex "middle...

Tracing Communities and Mapping Exchange Networks of the Great Lakes in the 17th Century (2018)
Identifying historically documented ethnic groups in the archaeological record benefits from pragmatic approaches to material culture studies and regional-scale analyses of interaction. Ongoing investigations of the dispersal and migration of Huron-Wendat and other Indigenous peoples of eastern North America as an outcome of colonialism in 17th century are applying archaeometric analysis methods to glass trade beads to trace population movements and exchange networks. Chemical elements calcium,...
Transformations of the native elite in post-medieval Ireland: an archaeological perspective (2013)
Narratives of Ireland’s past are often dominated by simplistic binary oppositions between native and newcomer, English and Irish, Catholic and Protestant, which serve to disguise the social and ethnic complexity of post-medieval Irish society. Accordingly, the ‘big house’ functions, perhaps too conveniently, as the material embodiment of colonial privilege, working as a simple and stark counterpoint to the ‘thatched cottage’ of humble native tradition. This paper interrogates such divisions by...
