Today, the focus of our alum highlight is Dr. Jordan Dalton, who received her PhD in 2020. Her dissertation was titled "Excavations at Las Huacas (AD 1200-1650): Exploring Elite Strategies and Economic Exchange during the Inca Empire."
Dalton is currently a research scientist at the American Museum of Natural History. This past summer, she published an article in Sapiens titled "Fair and Balanced—Weighing Coca With a Wipi in Peru." This article discusses the significance of weighing scales used in the Andean community of San Pedro de Casta and across different cultures. This article can be viewed using our Link in Bio (https://lnk.bio/d3c5), and it can be viewed in both Spanish and English. Congratulations, Dr. Dalton!
