As in RIGHT in State College!

Trying to manifest warmth from my undergrad alma mater here in cold Central PA

It’s that time of the year when everyone wishes it was time for the field season again right? (July 2016 geophysics at Santa Elena on the South Carolina coast; the first permanent Spanish settlement in what is today the U.S.!) #archaeology #history

Fingerprint of an Indigenous potter living along the southeastern Atlantic coast c. 750yrs ago! Little oddities like this really collapse the perceived distance between the “us” of the present and the “them” of the past #archaeology #history

Do something. Jfc.

This exhibit is excellent. Its dismantling is an absolute disgrace and embarrassment.

🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳 @isazooarch.bsky.social @archaeojake.bsky.social gotta work on that Patagonia sponsorship next 😂

I tagged @patagonia.com last summer and they DID respond! Will they again?? I think archaeology is perfect for Patagonia sponsorship…. 😉

Who are they!? Our lab team working in Mongolia last summer made the cover of the SAA Archaeological Record! #archaeology @isazooarch.bsky.social @cmcarolus.bsky.social

Come hang out in Athens for the @archaeologyeaa.bsky.social meetings! Please share! And/or submit to our session: “The Distribution of Power and Inclusiveness across Deep Time: Archaeological, Historical, and Comparative Perspectives on Governance and Well-Being” #archaeology #history #democracy

Psyched to participate in this mini-workshop and panel discussion! #archaeology #history

One (understandably!) under appreciated component of foodways research in #archaeology: eggs! Matt has recovered a range of eggshells (birds, turtles(?!), etc) in the remains of food trash associated with the enslaved community of the North End Plantation on Ossabaw Island, Georgia #history #ecology

Happy New Year! Here’s some recent LiDAR and GPR data we collected at the Ancestral Muscogee village of Hokfv-Mocvse, one of the earliest dated permanent villages in North America, c. 5000BP! Discarded oyster around the community gives the distinctive “ring” shape #archaeology #history

We’re obsessed with this 4800yr old piece of pottery made by Ancestral Muskogean potters on the Georgia coast! #archaeology #history 🏺

🚨 New short paper out in the Proceedings of the Annual Conference of Mongolian Archaeologists 2025! Some preliminary reporting on our project in eastern Mongolia led by Christina and Asa, along with Jargalan, Isabelle, Matthew, and Jake! “Archaeological Research at Khairt Suuryn” #archaeology

One of the foci of our labs is the archaeology and ecology of islands and coasts. Accordingly, one of our specialties (@isazooarch.bsky.social’s specialties!) is FISH BONE!! It takes a special kind of archaeologist to love working with these tiny bones… #archaeology #ecology 🐠 🐟 🐡

Lab PIs are at the University of Georgia doing preliminary work for a new project at a 5,000yr old site on the Georgia coast. Step 1: DATES! They’re dating preserved fibers directly from sherds! These are the oldest ceramics north of Colombia and are tempered with Spanish moss! #archaeology #ecology

Two horses in a pasture. One in the foreground looks straight on at the camera. Another, sideways in the back, also looks at the camera.

They run these pastures. Back in Georgia for the holidays ♥️ 🖤

Yes! For class readings, I’ve also been having students respond to the question: “What surprised you??” It’s been productive!

A picture of Matt at a computer, with a glowing green box to his left where a sectioned oyster is being zapped with lasers!

New blog post by Matt on some of his preliminary dissertation work! “Seasonal Oyster Collection by Gullah/Geechee Communities of the American Southeast through Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS)” seafront-project.com/post/seasona...

Here's a timeline of 500 years of Native American trans women's history, please learn things

(I accidentally published it with the worst picture as the main pic so am posting this with just the url.)

Lab research now available in ✨Mongolian✨🇲🇳 We are fortunate to work and partner with colleagues who take on the critical labor of translating the work of our team for our Mongolian colleagues, scholars, and community members. @cmcarolus.bsky.social @isazooarch.bsky.social @archaeojake.bsky.social

I was really excited to co-author this blog post with three Jordanian colleagues and two Wichita State students!
