Museum Care of Indigenous Cradles
Traditional cradles are important objects in many Indigenous American cultures. A historical tendency of museums to overlook Indigenous perspectives on proper object handling and display has often resulted in improper care of culturally sensitive objects in museum collections. Through interviews at the Natural History Museum of Utah, we consulted members of Indigenous communities in and around Utah to ascertain culturally appropriate practices fo…
The impact of subsistence change on demography
Subsistence intensification is a major process in human history, however, quantifying its effects on demography is challenging given uncertainties regarding timing, population reconstructions, and ecological conditions. To help address these issues, we combine advances in ecological theory with Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) to generate a replicable, theory-informed, computational model for quantifying the effects of intensification on pa…
