     I am a document-based historian who has been interested in the Spanish
     Borderlands for many years, which I generally define with some
     imprecision as the northern frontier of New Spain and Mexico, along
     with the Gulf Coast from pre-encounter times up to and including the
     early nineteenth century, ending everywhere by the 1840s. Sorry if
     this characterization offends anyone.
 
     I try to maintain an up-to-date personal bibliography of published
     works (books, articles, reports, theses, and dissertations, etc.)
     dealing with the topic. Generally, I feel on solid ground in so
     doing as regards the historical literature written by historians.
 
     I'm not so confident about always being in touch with the important
     literature generated by historical archaeologists. So I would
     appreciate your thoughts on the following questions:
 
     1. Who are the  important historical archaeologists of recent decades
     working in the Spanish Borderlands (eastern and western?)
 
     2. What, in terms of digs and investigations, have been the most
     important projects undertaken in recent years?
 
     3. What have been the significant published studies and field
     reports?
 
     Any personal opinions you have on these questions would be most
     appreciated. Citations would also be great. Thanks!
