Troweling Through Time

Pot Luck
The doyenne of southwestern American archaeology offers a personal view of the last half century. While many of the faces and names conjured up in the personal side of this book may be of purely local interest, Florence Lister's view of ceramic analysis is more wide-reaching, she was a pioneer of the social approach to ceramic studies.
Aztec Ruins on the Animas

The Listers document not only the history, excavation and preservation of the site but also its significance in the world of Chaco Canyon, Mesa Verde, and Salmon Ruins.

Cultural Negotiations
This meticulously researched reference work documents the role of women who contributed to the development of Americanist archaeology from 1865 to 1940. Between the Civil War and World War II, many women went into anthropology and archaeology, fields that, at the beginning of this period, welcomed and made room for amateurs of both genders. But over time, the increasingly professional structure of these fields diminished or even obscured the contributions of women due to their lack of access to prestigious academic employment and publishing opportunities. As a result, a woman archaeologist during this period often published her research under her husband's name or as a junior author with her...
The Chinese of Early Tucson
Focuses on an ethnographic collection gathered from a complex of Chinese dwellings, the importance of which lies in its size, diversity, good condition, and observable continuity of materials known from earlier periods of Chinese occupation in Tucson.
Construed Heritage
Heritage theory places individual experiences in a precarious position. Representational approaches draw attention to socio-political contexts and ethical considerations but largely render the self silent. Affective approaches, on the other hand, develop meaningful components of the emotive and sensed self, but internalized and unmitigated heritage runs the risk of perpetuating oppressive constructs. In Construed Heritage, Jennifer Goddard views heritage experiences as subjective-objective relationships that may be analyzed through discursive and figurative construal level distances. Goddard further contends that memory consumes and retains those heritage experiences as cognitive objects where they are collected and curated into personal narratives.
