Research Associate
Research
I am a pottery specialist with a particular interest in the production and distribution of fine ware and cooking ware pottery in the Eastern Mediterranean during the Hellenistic and Early Roman periods.
As research associate, I have been involved in a number of funded research projects which focused on pottery dated from the Classical to Roman periods and included material from various Mediterranean sites such as the Athenian Agora (Wenner-Grenn Foundation), Corinth (University of Missouri), Delos (French School at Athens) and Kos (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens) in Greece, as well as Nea Paphos on Cyprus (Polish National Science Centre), Chhim in Lebanon (Polish Centre of Meditteranean Archaeology University of Warsaw), and Marzuolo (Affinito-Stewart Grant-Cornell University) in Italy.
I am currently leading a three-year project entitled INSIDE – Interdisciplinary Studies of Hellenistic Pottery from the Island of Delos. The project is funded by the Polish National Science Centre and hosted by the Institute of Mediterranean and Oriental Cultures, Polish Academy of Sciences and the Fitch Laboratory, British School at Athens.
I received my MSc in Archaeological materials from the University of Sheffield and my PhD on Provenance and Technology of Colour-coated Ware Pottery from Nea Paphos on Cyprus (from the late 4th to the 1st century BCE) from the Jagiellonian University in Krakow.
