Anyone currently doing fieldwork and/or research in the Southeastern United States?
Is your probing part of your sampling/testing methodology? What composes this muddy sediment? Is it silty, clay, sand?
Yes, the red pigment is the slip they used on the pottery. I wish I could remember what she was saying they used. We found a lot of the red hemitite, so it very well could have been that, but I can not say for sure. We also were finding artifacts ...
The pot was black burnished with an unmistakable red pigment painted on top. I'll try to get a pic posted.
Mississippians usually had a red slip to their ceramics, and the painting, was it black? They generally did negative painting. I have a contact at SIUC that her specialty is woodland/mississippian cultures. We just finished an 8 week dig on the Oh...

- Jim Knight is perhaps the most respected academic in the area of iconography. What is it about the symbols that you are interested in?

- Not too bad. Working in Evergreen, Alabama right now, highway survey. Better this heat than bitter cold, any day. Some great home-food across the street from the motel; two old ladies make up meat-n-three's every day. Yeah, have heard of the the Talisi. Have done & am doing archaeology in the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex. What aspect in particular?

- Oh yeah, that name sounds familiar. Matt's great, we were in the same field school. I didn't realize he was going to grad school out in UT though. "Small world" is right.

- I live in the Carolinas, but I work in the region from Alabama all the way east to the coast. Recently, most of my work has been on Archaic sites in Georgia; the area around Newnan and Augusta. Sometime here pretty soon, I am slated to go work a project on a historic plantation site near the Atlantic coast in South Carolina. I did a lot of the testing on that site, and am itching to get back there and excavate it more fully.
Up until about May, I was working almost eight months on a large excavation project in the Tennessee River valley in north Alabama. That one was intense.

- About Me:
- I'm currently enrolled as an Anthropology student at Auburn University in Alabama. Strong back with a strong mind ya'll---all this with an Alabama hip shake.
Graduating in December '09 I'd like to continue my professional (and personal) education at one of the many fine institutions here in the Southeast. My research interests include transitional ceramic technologies, the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex, geophysical site formation processes, and historic archaeologies.
I enjoy constructing my own instruments in my spare time and devote time outta field/classroom to consuming only the finest Pabst Blue Ribbon and making music with friends.
