Moreover, Andrew placed great emphasis on the full and prompt publication of his work. His major volumes the excavations at Nicopolis and Dichin were pioneering in the late antique Balkans for their emphasis on artefactual, faunal and archaeobotanical remains, alongside the structural evidence. 4/

Excavation at the late Roman city was accompanied by field survey & subsequent projects at the fort of Dichin & the hilltop of Dobri Dyal. The scale of Andrew’s excavation seasons is perhaps unsurpassed by any UK overseas project & a generation of students gained experience through the project. 3/
