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…
Drought, Population Pressure, and Inequality Drive Intergroup Conflict in the Precontact North American Southwest
To anticipate relationships between future climate change and societal violence, we need theory to establish causal links and case studies to estimate interactions between driving forces. Here, we couple evolutionary ecology with a machine-learning statistical approach to investigate the long-term effects of climate change, population growth, and inequality on intergroup conflict among farmers in the North American Southwest. Through field invest…
A reconstruction of the Indigenous maize farming niche of Utah
Machine learning reconstructs the Indigenous maize farming niche of Utah. • Early Utah farmers balanced elevation-driven precipitation and the growing season. • Farmers mitigate this trade-off by diverting perennial streams in drier regions. • Early Utah farmers settled in an ideal distribution model way. Maize ( Zea mays L . ) was one of the most widespread domesticated plants in the Americas before European colonization. Despite its widespread …
