Examining the Association Between Food Insecurity and Pediatric Irritability
Irritability is a transdiagnostic construct associated with diverse psychiatric disorders in youth. This study examined the association between food insecurity and irritability in a clinically and community-recruited sample of children aged 8-16 (N = 183). Participants and their parents completed structured interviews and measures assessing irritability, food security, and socioeconomic status (SES). Child-reported food insecurity was significant…
Resetting Leadership Towards a More Just World For All

The Role of Plants and Animals in the Termination of Three Buildings at the Spring Lake Tract Neighborhood, Cahokia
Plants and animals play a vital role in the human experience, from providing basic sustenance to creating unique social practices that may govern familial, political, or religious experiences; reconstitute identities; or forge social relationships. In this article, we present analyses on the ethnobotanical and zoological remains recently recovered from the Spring Lake Tract, Cahokia, a neighborhood populated from approximately AD 900 to 1275. The…
Faith-Based Advocacy for Family Planning Works

An Early Islamic Homicide at Qasr Hallabat, Jordan
In the 8th to 10th century c.e., six adult individuals, five males and one female, were murdered in the northern Badia of Jordan amongst the ruins of Qasr Hallabat. The four males and one female show a combination of blunt force trauma to the head and sharp force trauma to the arms and legs. Who are these individuals, and what are the circumstances surrounding their deaths? Forensic and bioarchaeological analyses of the skeletal remains uncover e…
Reconstructing Ancient Foodways at the Jones Mill Site (3HS28), Hot Spring County, Arkansas
Analyses of botanical and faunal samples and a new radiocarbon date provide a detailed picture of Indian foodways at the Jones Mill site on the Ouachita River in Arkansas. Hunting, plant processing, and fishing with nets is seen from Middle Archaic artifacts and features. Burned hickory nutshell found among clusters of fire-cracked rock shows the importance of nut masts as food between 6000-4300 B.C. By 1450 A.D., a more substantial community of …
Plants and Technology
With a single exception, the paleoethnobotany papers presented as a group in this issue of the MCJA emerged from a symposium, Plants and Technology/' organized by Mary Simon and Katie Parker as part of the 2006 Midwest Archaeological Conference in Champaign-Urbana. In considering possible themes for the symposium, we concluded that we would most like to hear about new or novel approaches to archaeobotanical research, as well as new discoveries ab…
