Research interests

Radiocarbon dating and Bayesian chronological modelling.

Method and theory for assessing temporal relations between units in the archaeological record (artefacts, contexts, features, etc.), and how specific assumptions/interpretations about temporal relations between such units set the framework for reconstructions of past societies and of the course of history in general. 

Issues concerning:

  • Reuse (of features and sites).
  • The contemporaneity problem 
  • Formation processes
  • Mapping site occupation histories
  • Models of site-use
  • Population size and group size

And more generally hunter-gatherer and forager societies, maritime adaptation.
