Information

I'm an environmental archaeologist and archaeobotanist, focusing on the study of interactions between humans and their environment in the past. My primary research interests are plant utilization among hunter-gatherers, investigating the shift from hunting and gathering to farming, and examining early agricultural practices in Central Europe.
