This is an abstract from the "The Village, the Region, and Beyond: Stuart Struever (1931–2022) and the Lower Illinois River Valley Research Program" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Stuart Struever developed several important and innovative approaches during his time in Illinois. I use my own Lower Illinois Valley research to focus on Struever’s contributions in three areas: 1) working with collectors and amateur archaeologists, 2) focusing on...
Colonial Borderlands and Conflicting Landscapes in Colonial Chile (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Contested Landscapes: The Archaeology of Politics, Borders, and Movement" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Chile was the most important and complex borderland of the Spanish Empire (1550–1818), in which colonial power and indigenous resistance were contested over centuries. Control over this frontier was of vital importance for the Spaniards because the main Pacific harbour was located there. The indigenous people,...

Coming into Ohio: Early Paleoindian Mobility (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Three Sides of a Career: Papers in Honor of Robert L. Kelly" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper, we propose a new idea for the early colonization of Ohio, which is likely applicable to other previously glaciated regions. Concentrations of Paleoindian materials around wetland features may represent the first resource locales exploited during colonization. These areas became less attractive as megafauna and...

This research utilizes historic documents, site surveys, and GIS mapping to explore the prevalence and significance of nineteenth century grave monuments signed with makers’ marks within the...

Two villages, Moqui Springs and Cowboy Wash, occupy the southernmost edge of central Mesa Verde region and Yucca House sits on the eastern...
Comparing Middle Woodland and Mississippian Period Agglomerations in the Eastern Woodlands of North America (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Ephemeral Aggregated Settlements: Fluidity, Failure or Resilience?" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Large aggregated settlements have been a persistent feature of the settlement landscape of the Eastern Woodlands of North America for more than 3000 years. By the turn of the first millennium ephemeral agglomerated settlements become common settings for the enactment of practices and traditions that presage the next...
Comparing the Household Activities from Cerro la Guitarra (Zaña Valley, Peru) (2018)
New insights from household archaeology on the north coast of Peru provide lines of evidence about the complex patterns of daily life. Also, few studies about the domestic life were carried out at the Zaña Valley. The first field season at Cerro la Guitarra, a fortified hill site with occupations from the Late Intermediate Period (1100-1400 AD) in the Zaña Valley, was very successful because it allows us to explore residential life using ceramics, architecture, and faunal analysis with the goal...
Conflict and the Politics of Solidarity: Hierarchy and its Limits in the Late Precolumbian Andean Highlands (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Warfare and the Origins of Political Control " session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Premodern groups under significant external threat often developed a politics of solidarity, emphasizing group strength and shared responsibilities rather than vertical distinctions. This paper draws on evidence from the late precolumbian Andean highlands to illustrate how the demands of defense shaped political dynamics and leadership...
Conflict, Spatial Organization and Group Identity during the Late Intermediate Period in the Bolivian Southern Altiplano (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Beyond the Round House: Spatial Logic and Settlement Organization across the Late Andean Highlands" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. During the Late Intermediate Period, the Southern Altiplano region was characterized by the presence of conflict and fortified settlements. These societies have been described as having a corporate leadership, linked to a founding ancestor, which granted them privileged access to...
Confronting Myths of Isolation in Pre-Columbian Appalachia (2018)
In recent decades, ethnographers, historians, and historical archaeologists have refuted popular myths about southern Appalachia that characterize the region as an isolated geographic periphery and, by extension, a cultural backwater. However, these perceptions continue to color interpretations of Appalachia’s deeper past, despite the region’s long tradition of rigorous archaeological research. Some scholars have suggested that pre-Columbian Appalachia has remained peripheral in archaeological...
Conil Revisited: Aerial Survey and Verification along Quintana Roo's North Coast (2016)
The site of Conil is located in the northern part of the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. Not far removed from the modern shore of Laguna Holbox, Conil appears to have been inhabited at various times between the Preclassic period and the present day. In AD 1528, the conquistador Francisco de Montejo reported that Conil was a large town of 5000 houses. First investigated by William Sanders in 1954, Conil has seen little in the way of research since that time. Recent research by members of the...

Constructed Landscapes: Late Intermediate Period Architecture and Spatial Organization in the Huamanga Province of Peru (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. According to landscape archaeologists, structures are not passive forms of material culture or passive backdrops of culture. They are cultural modifications that not only reflect, communicate, or symbolically express past ideas and cultures but also actively mold or influence future human actions. Architectural form depends on functional and social demands—a...
The Construction and Activation of Place at the Maya Port of Isla Cerritos (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Place-Making in Indigenous Mesoamerican Communities Past and Present" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Mesoamerican ports were not only settings for exchange but also communities with residential populations and dynamic shared identities that contributed to both coastal and inland cultural landscapes. Ancient ports commonly incorporated a variety of sacred architecture and symbolism to accommodate visitors from distant...
