Biography
Ever since the age of 6, I have been fascinated with history and archaeology. It was during my academic studies that I found my real passion: British prehistory, as well as human evolution. I have previously worked as an archaeologist, but have now moved away from fieldwork, to do more lab-based analysis.
My academic interests include:
Neolithic and Bronze Age Astronomy and Ritual.
The Evolution of Language and Symbolism, and Evolution of the brain in Human Evolution.
Iron Age Coinage.
Coin Hoards.
Education
- BA (Hons) Archaeology.
- MSc Forensic Archaeology and Anthropology.
