Matthew Peeples
Biography
Matthew Peeples joined Arizona State University and the School of Human Evolution and Social Change in 2015. He also serves as Director for the ASU Center for Archaeology and Society. Peeples is an archaeologist by training, but works to integrate archaeological data with methods and models from the broader social sciences to address questions revolving around the nature and dynamics of human social networks and group identities. His research program includes both traditional archaeological field and lab projects in the U.S. Southwest (in particular in the Cibola/Zuni region of New Mexico and Arizona) as well as collaborative synthetic projects that integrate massive amounts of data to address questions of broad interest in the social and behavioral sciences. This includes investigations of the long-term impacts of migration and the drivers of collective action. Much of his research involves applying network science analytical techniques to archaeological data.
Peeples has received major grants from the National Science Foundation Archaeology program as well as the cross-directorate NSF Resource Implementation for Data Intensive Research (RIDIR) program. He also serves as the current president of the Southwest Symposium organization.
