WORK IN PROGRESS

Research in Progress

My most current research has four interrelated spheres of study: ecological and agency-based considerations of emerging

sociopolitical complexity among ancient societies in the midcontinental and southeastern United States; historical ecological

efforts at modeling ancient resource productivity and reconstructing ancient anthropogenic landscapes; microhistorical

investigation of households, ancient architecture, planned communities, and built landscapes as expressions of social order in

which both cosmological canons of design and vernacular traditions of engineering and construction style contribute to

architectural variation; and the history of archaeology as practiced in the United States in the first half of the twentieth century –

a time when newly discovered archaeological evidence was used to establish cultural historical meta-narratives that are still in

use today in many regions. These questions are being pursued in the context of my fieldwork and collections-based analyses in

western Kentucky (the Jonathan Creek site, associated with the Mississippian Tradition), Cahokia and the American Bottom in

Illinois (region with intensive Mississippian occupation), and southern Wisconsin (the Skare site, a multicomponent site;

Aztalan, associated with the Late Woodland and Mississippian Traditions).
