Tune in while Kirsten, Chelsi, and Emily discuss cool projects, career paths in archaeology, and starting a business with Dr. Angela Perrotti of the Palynology and Environmental Research Lab. Angela goes deep with what palynology is, what we can learn from pollen in the archaeological record, and how she got the coolest job! She explores research variety, contrasting the complexities in working with academic versus private cultural resource firms and public agencies. The work of archaeological sciences and how they can serve not just regulatory projects and academic research but also help museums answer their pressing research questions, large and small.
* Cleveland Museum bronze statue that PEARL tested for provenance data is still roiled in controversy.
* Take a look at the ongoing research at the Manasota Keys site in Florida.
* The other site Dr. Perrotti references in the discussion on mortuary ponds, the Windover site. Some really cool and unique archaeology comes out of the Southeast!
* Online reference collections are valuable for researchers, including students and professionals across many disciplines. Two Dr. Perrotti notes that have been important to her work at PEARL include the Global Pollen Project, and important references for non-pollen palynomorphs (otherwise known as particles that appear similar to pollen, but are from different organisms).
