NEW the Kura-Araxes culture of the South Caucasus spread over a large area of South-west Asia during the fourth and third millennia BC. Now, Bayesian chronological modelling shows how it shaped sociocultural transformations during the Early Bronze Age.

SCAPES postdoctor @annapp90.bsky.social is currently sampling human remains to explore population development and Norway’s Neolithic transition. Did agriculture arrive with colonizers? Did groups cooperate or clash? Did they eat a primarily terrestrial or maritime diet? #Archaeology #aDNA #isotopes

Paper alert!

My work on the radiocarbon chronology of the Kura-Araxes is finally out in Antiquity! This has made for an amazing research journey and collaborations in the South Caucasus, contributing new knowledge about Early Bronze Age Southwest Asia

Time for a long overdue introduction Bluesky! I am an anthropological archaeologist interested in isotopic temporal proxies (esp. 14C) to understand time and temporality among past societies. I also investigate archaeological epistemologies and chronopolitics through ArchSci perspectives.
