The Department of Anthropology presents Dr. Michael Mathiowetz Assistant Professor of Anthropology Riverside City College Date: Friday, November 18 Time: 12:30-1:30pm Location: Social Sciences 1, room 261 From the Household to the Continental: Building a Multi-scalar and Transnational Approach to a History of U.S. Southwestern and Northwest Mesoamerican Cultural Change One of the fundamental emphases in recent approaches to the examination of archaeological cultures is the articulation of local, regional, macroregional, and continental scales of analysis as a requirement for more analytically robust explanations of past cultural phenomena and social transformations. In a recent volume entitled “Building Transnational Archaeologies” that derived from the 11 th Southwest Symposium, the editors called for a transnational archaeological approach to the history of pre- Hispanic U.S. Southwest and northern Mexican social change. This presentation builds upon this call by examining specific local and regional Puebloan and northern Mexican cultural phenomena and material culture changes that occurred between AD 900-1450 and situating these changes within the context of continental-scale historical processes, particularly in relation to then-contemporary societies in west Mexico. Michael Mathiowetz received his doctoral degree in 2011 from the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside under the direction of Dr. Karl Taube. He has participated in archaeological fieldwork both in the United States and in Mexico, including in California, Arizona, Baja California, Sonora, Chihuahua, and Chiapas and has conducted research with numerous archaeological collections housed in national and local museums in the United States and Mexico. Currently he is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at Riverside City College. His research particularly focuses on the archaeology and history of indigenous people spanning the U.S. Southwest, northern Mexico, and west Mexico. His ongoing research examines the long-distance interaction that occurred between ancient Mesoamerican and Puebloan societies and the present-day continuities. This work specifically examines the role of west Mexican Aztatlán societies in the florescence of the Casas Grandes culture in Chihuahua and its influence on the significant religious and socio-political changes that occurred among Pueblo cultures across the U.S. Southwest after AD 1200.
