Matthew Hill
Dr. Hill is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology, specializing in
North American archaeology. His research interests revolve around
the study of hunter-gatherer diet and subsistence behavior, mobility
strategies, and site structure using archaeological data and methods.
Most of his research has centered on the behavior of late Ice Age
Paleoindian hunter-gatherers on the northwestern Great Plains and
in the western Great Lakes and Upper Mississippi River Valley. For
the next several years, his research will revolve around the Clary
Ranch project in southwestern Nebraska. This interdisciplinary project
is designed to track organizational responses of Paleoindian hunter-gatherers
to changes in food resource availability, distribution, and predictability
across the Pleistocene-Holocene boundary. His recent publications
include: "Palaeoindian Subsistence Behavior at the Clary Ranch
Site, Nebraska, USA" (2002, Antiquity 76:311-312, with Hill et
al.), "Season of Bison Mortality at Three Plains Archaic Kills
in Wyoming" (1998, Plains Anthropologist 43:5-26, with L.B. Niven),
"Silver Mound" (1998, In Archaeology of Prehistoric Native
America: An Encyclopedia, edited by G. Gibbon, pp. 769-770. Garland
Publishing, New York), "Cutmarks, Impacts, and Carnivores at
the Casper Site Bison Bonebed" (1997, In 1993 Bone Modification
Conference, edited by L.A. Hannus et al., pp. 136-157. Sioux Falls,
South Dakota), "Size Comparison of the Mill Iron Site Bison Calcanea"
(1996, In The Mill Iron Site, edited by G.C. Frison, pp. 231-237.
University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque), "A Further Evaluation
of the San Jon Site, New Mexico" (1995, Plains Anthropologist
40:369-390, with V.T. Holliday and D.J. Stanford), "Paleoindian
Projectile Points from the Vicinity of Silver Mound (47JA21), Jackson
County, Wisconsin" (Midcontinental Journal of Archaeology 19:223-259).
