Im/Mobility at the US-Mexico Border during the Covid-19 Pandemic
In March 2020, the United States government began a series of measures designed to dramatically restrict immigration as part of its response to the global health crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic. This included Title 42, which deported asylum seekers immediately and prevented them from applying for asylum. These measures worsened an already precarious situation at the US-Mexico border for an estimated 60,000 asylum seekers who were preven…
African American Experiences in the Historic Dunbar Neighborhood in San Marcos, Texas: A Case Study of Counter-Life Stories
The purpose of this participatory research project is to examine the lived experiences (counter-life stories) of current and former Dunbar residents and congregants of Dunbar churches to demonstrate how local stories counter the dominant perspective about the experiences of American Americans in the Dunbar community. Once a thriving community at the center of civil rights activities in Hays County, Texas, the neighborhood has evolved in many ways…
Measuring Time, Population, and Residential Mobility from the Surface at San Marcos Pueblo, North Central New Mexico
To understand the effects of European contact on the organization, size, and mobility of Pueblo populations in the Southwest requires detailed knowledge of the occupational histories of the aggregated settlements that typify the late prehistoric and early historic record. Unfortunately, such understanding is generally lacking because the methods used to document occupational histories of settlements tend to either obscure fine-grained temporal di…

Reverse Engineering the Ceramic Cooking Pot: Cost and Performance Properties of Plain and Textured Vessels
The Development of Corrugated Pottery in Southwestern Colorado
Archaeological research has documented the broad outlines of the development of corrugated utility pottery from plain and neck-banded antecedents. However, a reliance on typological descriptions has obscured the technological details of this development. An attribute analysis of six well-dated utility-ware assemblages from southwestern Colorado indicates that corrugation appeared first in this region during the eighth century A. D. as wide, non-o…
Determining the Fuel Constituents of Ancient Hearth Ash Via ICP-AES Analysis
Effects of pocket gopher burrowing on archaeological deposits: A simulation approach
The construction of burrows and movement of sediment by pocket gophers alter archaeological deposits by causing vertical size‐sorting of artifacts, destruction of fragile artifacts, disruption of sedimentary structures, and organic enrichment of the subsurface. To evaluate the long‐term effects of exposure to burrowing, a simulation was developed based on quantitative information on pocket gopher burrows and rates of sediment movement. Simulation…
