SUMMARY

Dr. E. Christian Wells is the Director of the Office of Sustainability and Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of South Florida. He received his B.A. from Oberlin College and his M.A. and Ph.D. in Anthropology from Arizona State University. He is an environmental archaeologist, whose principal scholarly interests include cultural and ecological aspects of long-term human/environmental systems, the influence of environmental worldview on economic decision making, and quantitative modeling and analysis of soil science data. His research seeks to understand the land-use legacies established by prehistoric agrarian communities and the consequences of those legacies for contemporary farmers in less developed countries. One of his primary contributions has been to demonstrate the varying small-scale chemical changes to soil surfaces caused by ancient populations, which has led to new ways of detecting and studying human impacts on landscapes. Over the past 15 years, he has undertaken field research in Honduras, Guatemala, and Mexico with funding from the National Science Foundation, the Wenner-Gren Foundation, the National Geographic Society, and other agencies. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Society for Archaeological Sciences Bulletin, governing board member of the Society for Economic Anthropology, and member of the Committee on Curriculum for the Society for American Archaeology. He has written or edited six books and journal issues, including Dimensions of Ritual Economy (with P. A. McAnany), Mesoamerican Ritual Economy (with K. L. Davis-Salazar), and Advances in Geoarchaeological Approaches to Anthrosol Chemistry (with R. E. Terry), as well as more than 50 articles, chapters, and reviews.
