Rate My Professor Patrick Livingood

Livingood has made significant contributions through authorship and editorship of key publications. He co-edited Plaquemine Archaeology (University of Alabama Press, 2007) and authored Mississippian Polity and Politics on the Gulf Coastal Plain: A View from the Pearl River, Mississippi (University of Alabama Press, 2010). Notable peer-reviewed articles include 'Sociopolitical Implications of Mississippian Mound Volume' co-authored with John H. Blitz (American Antiquity, 2004), 'No Crows Made Mounds' (2012), and 'Point/Counter Point: The Accuracy and Feasibility of Digital Image Techniques in the Analysis of Ceramic Thin-Sections' with Ann S. Cordell (Journal of Archaeological Science, 2009). Recent chapters cover Caddo ceramics in the Red River Basin (2021), Spiro and surrounding sites (2020), multisensor remote sensing at Spiro (2017), and the many dimensions of Hally circles (2015). Livingood participates in the NAGPRA Oversight Committee, Faculty Senate committees, and public outreach, including lectures on pseudoscience in archaeology and archaeological methods. His research employs geophysical surveys and excavations, such as at the Clement Site, a Caddo mound complex in southeastern Oklahoma.
