Ongoing Field Projects

Field Research on the Parashant National Monument: I am involved in a long-term archaeological research project concerning the Puebloan occupation of the Mt. Dellenbaugh area of the Shivwits Plateau, located within Parashant National Monument.

Field and Archival Research in the Lower Moapa Valley: A second area of ongoing research involves the Puebloan occupation of the lower Moapa Valley of southern Nevada. I have recently completed an archival study of the artifacts and records associated with the early (1920s-1940s) field research of this area, and have on-going field investigations in the area.
