Dr. Glover attended Vanderbilt University as an undergraduate, where he discovered the field of anthropology. After graduating from Vanderbilt, Dr. Glover then pursued his graduate studies in anthropology at the University of California, Riverside (UCR). Dr. Glover has been conducting archaeological investigations in Mexico since 1998. In 1999 he began working in the northeast corner of the Yucatan Peninsula on the Yalahau Regional Human Ecology Project, directed by Dr. Scott Fedick of UCR and Dr. Jennifer Mathews of Trinity University. Dr. Glover’s dissertation project involved a regional settlement pattern study of the 5,000 square kilometer region, which involved putting many miles on the car as he documented archaeological sites across the Yalahau region.
