AnthroBlogs back with new hosting

Anthroblogs and the AnthroWiki were off-line for six days as I worked through a dispute with Rob Borofsky at Public Anthropology, with whom this site was formerly affiliated. After some acrimony and much negotiation, we are now hosted elsewhere and no longer have any connection whatsoever with Professor Borofsky or the Center for a Public Anthropology. Access to our files, blocked by Prof. Borofsky during the dispute, has now been restored and all blogs should be back to where they were on May 24. I apologize for any inconvenience to readers, to websites that may have linked to here and found dead links or feeds, and, especially, to all the authors and commenters on this site who had no access to their blogs during this week.

My first anthro gig

I'm excited to have my first academic blog hosted by anthroblogs.org. It's called Nomadic Thoughts and the first entry gives a little background info. Briefly, I just graduated from UNC-Wilmington and I'm about to enter the master's program at the University of South Florida. I'll be studying Ancient Maya archaeology. Many thanks to John for having me and I look forward to being a part of the community!
