Basketmaker III and Pueblo I Communities of Architectural Practice in the Chuska Valley, New Mexico (2015)
This research investigates communities of architectural practice of Basketmaker III and Pueblo I period (AD 500-875) residents of the Chuska Valley in northwest New Mexico to understand social networks and levels of interaction among groups throughout the Colorado Plateau of the American Southwest. Understanding social networks and migration patterns during the late Basketmaker and early Pueblo periods can provide insight into early population aggregation, population movement, and regional...
Becoming Chacoan: The Archaeology of the Aztec North Great House (2019)
Between 900 and 1140 CE, people at Chaco Canyon and throughout its region built multistory monumental structures with hundreds of rooms, known as great houses. This dissertation reports on recent archaeological testing on one such great house, the Aztec North great house at Aztec Ruins National Monument. I argue that Aztec North’s occupation represents an early, transitional period, as people previously not involved in the Chaco world made choices that increasingly brought them into Chaco’s...

The Bird of the Next Dawn: The husbandry, translocation and transformation of the turkey (2012)
This thesis follows the palaeopathological and social history of the turkey, Meleagris gallopavo, over a thousand years (AD 900- c. 1900) and illuminates the evolving nature of turkey-human relationships. Interdependent analyses of zooarchaeological data and historical documentary sources were undertaken for this project. Palaeopathological and metrical data were gathered from turkey elements excavated from archaeological sites in the American Southwest, the UK and Éire; these were used with...
Bison Jump Sites in the Northwestern Plains of North America: A locational Analysis (1979)
ABSTRACT BISON JUMP SITES IN THE NORTHWESTERN PLAINS OF NORTH AMERICA: A LOCATIONAL ANALYSIS BY Michael Robert Polk This study is a locational analysis of bison jump sites in the northwestern plains of North America. One hundred forty-six sites from Alberta, Montana and Wyoming were examined in an attempt to identify cultural preferences and environmental constraints which affected the site location decisions of prehistoric hunters. Bison Jump site data and associated...
The Black River: Deposits of Coal Silt Along the Susquehanna River, Pennsylvania (2014)
Deposits of coal silt are significant because they provide archaeologists a baseline for investigating changes in pre-industrial and post-industrial landscapes in Pennsylvania. Beginning in the 1790s, miners extracted coal from seams near the surface with a pick and shovel. Over the next 120 years, coal mining evolved into a booming industry. In 1917, production peaked at over 100 million tons. By 1950, geologists discovered reserves of crude oil and natural gas, leading to the overall decline...

Ceramics of Aztec North and the Terrace Community, Aztec Ruins National Monument (2015)
This study reports on a ceramic analysis of nearly 1500 surface-collected potsherds from five unexcavated sites on the river terrace at Aztec Ruins National Monument, including the Aztec North great house. I conducted a detailed attribute analysis and mean ceramic dating. The mean ceramic date for Aztec North is AD 1104±39, while other terrace sites have later mean dates. Based on these dates, it appears that Aztec North was constructed before or contemporaneously with Aztec West, and it...

A chert sourcing study using visible/near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy at the Dover Quarry sites, Tennessee. (2009)
Prehistoric cultural material is commonly composed of chert due in large part to its physical properties that are conducive to tool manufacture. Despite its ubiquity, archaeologists are faced with an arduous task when attempting to source chert artifacts to known quarries/deposits. The application of Visible/Near-Infrared Reflectance (VNIR) spectroscopy to chert sourcing attains a cost-efficient, fast, non-destructive, and accurate means of identifying material type and geologic/geographic...
Cibola Corrugated: A Proposed New Pottery Type from the Southwest (1975)
The purpose of this thesis is to describe a heretofore undescribed and unnamed pottery type from the Southwest. This has been accomplished by the traditional observational method and through the use of statistical techniques identifying stylistic attribute associations. Discrete attributes have been identified on Clbola Corrugated Pottery. Twelve of these exhibit frequencies sufficient for statistical analysis. Two groups of associated attributes, four each, were identified. The first group is...
Coalescent Communities in Iroquoian Ontario (2010)
This study documents and theorizes the processes behind the coalescence of ancestral Huron-Wendat populations on the north shore of Lake Ontario. A multiscalar analytical approach is employed to examine settlement aggregation at the regional, local and community levels. The study draws upon cross-cultural models of coalescent societies and the archaeology of communities while being theoretically situated within an historical-processual approach. The settlement data presented demonstrate that...

A Colorful Past: Turquoise and Social Identity in the Late Prehispanic Western Pueblo Region, A.D. 1275–1400 (2017)
Turquoise is synonymous with the U.S. Southwest, occurring naturally in relative abundance and culturally prized for millennia. As color and material, turquoise is fundamental to the worldviews of numerous indigenous groups of the region, with notable links to moisture, sky, and personal and familial vitality. For Pueblo groups in particular, turquoise and other blue-green minerals hold a prominent place in myth, ritual, aesthetics, and cosmology. They continue to be used as important offerings,...
