About

My research interests focus on pre-Hispanic wetland agriculture; cultural-historical geography of Mesoamerican tropical lowlands; and the recent impact of agricultural globalization. I am currently working on an environmental history of the Candelaria River Basin in southwestern Campeche, Mexico, from the recent extraction of the river’s age-old transportational function by a road network, back to the Archaic period and very early evidence (ca. 7000 BP) for human intervention in the river system.
