Short Bio

I am a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow with a background in archaeology, primatology, and anthropology. My research expertise spans chimpanzee perishable technology (termite-fishing), lithic technology (nut-cracking), and the formation of technological landscapes, using a range of archaeological approaches including raw material studies, landscape archaeology and agent-based modelling. My current project – Primate Archaeology Beyond Technology – explores, for the first time, the archaeology of non-technological chimpanzee behaviours
