Hello! 👋 I’m an archaeologist who studies the last 5,000 years of human history across eastern North America! I work primarily in the American Southeast, from Southern Appalachia to the Coast, on Ancestral Muskogean, Spanish Colonial, and Gullah-Geechee #archaeology!

Listen. You are what you eat. But also, what you eat is what it eats. So, what you eat is what you eat eats (and obviously, what you eat eats is what it eats). Simple. #archaeology #ecology #isotopes #zooarchaeology #archaeobotany

Getting back to creating #tutorials. This time, a #photogrammetry tutorial on using Metashape Professional to process images of small objects like #artifacts (in 4K!). The video includes a section on what to do when automatic alignment fails!

Sharing for conference organizers: I’ve been part of many Indigenous science sessions at the major science organizations— Ecological Society of America, American Geophysical Union, Soil Science Society of America, and now Living Data. I’m so appreciative to be part of these communities.

“it’s reasonable…to ask the economists to sit still long enough to encounter the basic questions lobbed at every first-year grad student. Mastery of these questions is not just a status signifier; it shows that you understand what has been said, so you can contribute something new and meaningful.”
