Look what I found at Union Station — me in the June issue of Discover Magazine! And it’s even a cover story! That’s right — it’s about #obsidian, #dragonglass, #archaeology, and the #IronTrone on #GameOfThrones! Can I put “model” on my CV now?

Turkeys are rare at most Mimbres sites in southwest New Mexico from AD1000-1130, but they sure did like to decorate their pots with them. New DNA research by my colleagues and I show most turkeys were wild but some were domestic #thanksgiving #turkeys #Mimbres #NMthanksgiving
