Research Statement
My research focuses on engaging with material culture, specifically ceramics excavated from Fort Louis, Placentia, to deduce and explore socio-economic shifts during the French period of occupation. By building typochronologies and exploring wealth expression in the material record, I will be able to examine how Placentia grew and became increasingly involved with the Atlantic network.
