My main study involves the use of spectroscopic methods in order to identify and trace lithic artifacts in order to relate this materials chemical fingerprint to the movement patterns of people in the Neolithic. At the same time I am trying to find a relation between archaeological artifacts found at different archaeological sites and the raw material they are made of and compare these materials in order to study contacts in between groups of individuals, and there relations during the Neolithic.

I am teaching in the Neolithic and Bronze Age in the basic archaeology course as well as the theoretical prat of the GIS crouse for archaeology.
