Dietary Ethnogenesis? An Examination of Dietary Patterns at the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center Potter’s Field, California (2017)
Previous research into 19th century dietary variation within the United States has found significant variation based on social class, ancestry, and region. However, research to date has not systematically examined the specific social, cultural, and economic factors that contribute to dietary variation found throughout the United States during the 19th century. This study examines stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen to examine the relationship between ethnic preferences, regional...
Dog coprolites as a source of dietary and genetic information at the Bridge River Site, BC (2015)
DNA recovered from ancient coprolites can provide an important source of dietary and host information. In this study, ancient DNA techniques were applied to dog coprolites recovered from two pithouses at Bridge River, a complex hunter-gatherer village on the Fraser River, British Columbia. Dog mitochondrial DNA was targeted to assess the genetic relationship between the domestic dogs of Bridge River and other ancient and modern dog populations both locally and worldwide. Multiple Canis...

Phase II Archaeological Investigations, Blossom Point Farmhouse, Blossom Point Charles County, Maryland (1993)
The Phase II excavations at the Blossom Point Farmhouse focused on sub-floor deposits in the three main rooms of the house. The excavations clearly showed that the artifacts and ecofacts recovered from the excavations were derived from a badly disturbed context. Diagnostic artifacts from the Blossom Point Farmhouse indicate that the archaeological deposits date to the middle to late 19th century with a mix of 20th century artifacts added later. During this time period, the house was occupied by...
