New York University (NY) - TT Asst. Professor in Anthropological Archaeology (2 Positions) - Deadline: 1 Nov. 2018
The Department of Anthropology invites applications from outstanding scholars for two tenure-track positions, at the Assistant Professor level. The position is to begin September 1, 2019, pending budgetary and administrative approval.

Candidates should have exceptional records in research and teaching anthropological archaeology and who take a big-picture approach to studies of: (1) the earlier Pleistocene record; or (2) complex societies in the Holocene, such as the development of urbanism and the rise of states and empires. Regional specialty is open. We seek individuals with a theoretical outlook rooted in evolutionary theory and who complement research of current faculty in the Late Pleistocene of Central Asia and animal domestication in Europe and the Near East. Possible specializations include but are not restricted to: paleoclimate and geochemistry, computer and mathematical modeling, and spatial analysis. We will favor candidates with ongoing field- and lab-based projects. The successful candidates will be affiliated with and contribute to the mission of the Center for the Study of Human Origins (CSHO), helping shape the archaeology program along four main milestones: the emergence of the earliest cultures, the appearance and dispersal of Homo sapiens, the food production revolution, and the development of inequality, institutions, and urbanism.


 * Initial application deadline is November 1, 2018, but all applications will be considered until the position is filled. Please apply online at (http://apply.interfolio.com/53487) with a cover letter, CV listing contact information for three confidential references, a research and teaching statement, and a statement of diversity and inclusion.

 * What's the story with the theoretical perspective? I understand with the number 1, but most people studying complex societies aren't really using evolutionary theory, unless it's social evolutionary theory or the more darwinian side of collective action theory. Is that what it's getting at?

 * Online App. Form: https://careers.wesleyan.edu/postings/6381
 * Applications completed by October 15, 2018 will receive full consideration.
 * Is this position requiring letters up front, or is this just a warning that emails will be automatically generated? The ad says "After you have submitted all of the required documents, you will see a confirmation number. At that point, each of the three referees whose email address you have provided will receive an automatically-generated email requesting that he or she submit a letter of reference for you."
 * The letters are requested via automatically generated e-mails; as soon as I submitted, my referees received an e-mail, clearly before any review could be done by a human. So, it sounds like they do want the letters up front
 * In my experience, some university's HR systems automatically generate these emails whether or not the search committee wants them yet. That happened to me more than once last year. Kind of an annoyingly ambiguously worded job ad, since having to get letters up front is a pain, and I'd hate to ask for them if they're not even needed.

DISCUSSION, RUMORS, SPECULATION
Quick question. Curious (not on market). Did the Harvard and the Vermont jobs from last year not pan out? I don't see any updates to their faculty websites. Understand that there might just be start of year delays.
 * Last I heard the job was offered to someone, but that person may still be negotiating.


 * UVM hire is up under their "courses" page for the fall semester (and in a academia update), so that went through at least - (it ended up being a Mayanist).
 * At least two finalists were Maya archaeolgoists for this position

I just want to leave this here. Directly from the AAA website's policies for employers posting job ads:
 * "Solicitation of letters of recommendation should occur only after an initial screening of candidates to minimize inconvenience to applicants and referees. Names of references may be requested, however."
