About

My current research is centered on landscape archaeology and social zooarchaeology in the Pacific Northwest. I have been involved in fieldwork in this region of North America since 1997, and in Northwest Coast and Plateau faunal analysis since 1998. My research interests include seasonality studies, the archaeology of interaction, materiality, ancient DNA analysis and the engagement between place and identity. My geographic research foci are in Northeast Pacific archaeology and British prehistory in Northeast Atlantic context, and I have an interest in the archaeology of small- and intermediate-scale coastal and island societies more broadly. In Northwest Europe I am primarily interested in the social and economic transformations that characterize the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition. Here, and in other regions of the world influenced by the sea, I have an interest in the origins of village life among hunter-gatherers, as well as farmers and pastoralists. My practical experience also includes commercial archaeology in coastal and interior BC, as well as research fieldwork in the UK.
