Hello! 👋 I’m an archaeologist who studies the last 5,000 years of human history across eastern North America! I work primarily in the American Southeast, from Southern Appalachia to the Coast, on Ancestral Muskogean, Spanish Colonial, and Gullah-Geechee #archaeology!

Sharing for conference organizers: I’ve been part of many Indigenous science sessions at the major science organizations— Ecological Society of America, American Geophysical Union, Soil Science Society of America, and now Living Data. I’m so appreciative to be part of these communities.

“it’s reasonable…to ask the economists to sit still long enough to encounter the basic questions lobbed at every first-year grad student. Mastery of these questions is not just a status signifier; it shows that you understand what has been said, so you can contribute something new and meaningful.”

Bit confused by the media framing on the new Yunxian paper. No where is it stated that H. sapiens (as a species) is older than we thought, but rather “The origin of the sapiens clade is estimated to be about 1.02 Ma.”
A clade with an origin 1 Ma is much different than a species with an origin 1 Ma
