Mark A. Rees is an archaeological anthropologist specializing in the study of eastern North America. His research interests include Mississippian and Plaquemine communities of the Southeast, ca. A.D. 1000-1700, political culture and identity, Native American and Euroamerican historical archaeology, historical anthropology, ethnohistory, archaeological method and theory, ceramics, zooarchaeology, and cultural resource management.
Since arriving at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Dr. Rees has initiated two long-term programs of research. The first is the Plaquemine Mounds Archaeological Project (PMAP), which began with an archaeology field school in 2001 at Bayou Portage Guidry. PMAP has received funding from the Louisiana Board of Regents Research Competitiveness Subprogram. The second research program directed by Dr. Rees is the Early Acadian Archaeological Project (EAAP). The UL Lafayette 2002 field school investigated the original location of the Amand Broussard house, an Acadian cotton plantation and cattle ranch in Iberia Parish, Louisiana. Future studies are planned to identify the locations of initial Acadian settlement in south-central Louisiana.
