My research concerns the archaeology of Greece from the Late Bronze Age through the Archaic period, particularly the extra-urban landscape and questions of continuity and change between Mycenaean and later Greek culture.  My MPhil dissertation examines the development of extra-urban sanctuaries from the collapse of the Mycenaean palaces to the emergence of the great Panhellenic sites.

I am also interested in cultural interactions in the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age Mediterranean, ritual sites in Greece of later periods, and the role of mountainous landscapes in the archaeology of the Aegean.
