Description
The American School of Classical Studies at Athens (ASCSA) offers this three-year fellowship through its Malcolm H. Wiener Laboratory for Archaeological Science. It supports question-driven research addressing substantive problems concerning the ancient Greek world and adjacent areas through interdisciplinary archaeological science.
The laboratory is especially well-equipped for human skeletal biology, archaeobiological remains—including faunal and botanical materials—environmental studies, ancient materials studies, and geoarchaeology, particularly human-landscape interactions and site formation processes. Projects associated with ASCSA-directed or affiliated projects receive priority. Fellows are encouraged to contribute to the School’s Athens-based academic community through seminars, colloquia, workshops, field trips, and other activities integrating research and education.
