BS Anthropology (2011) Ӱpro
Thesis: Early Holocene Lithic Procurement, Technological Organization, and Mobility: Insights
from XBD-167 (Little Delta #3)
Research interests: I primarily work on questions of technological adaptations during the Early Holocene
especially on toolstone procurement behavior and the insight these behaviors have
on understanding mobility during this ecologically dynamic time period. As an extension,
my research includes the ways material quality and material availability affect technological
organization and degree of tool production and intensification at procurement sites.
