Notes on Contributors

Wendy Ashmore is Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside. Her research centers on the social use and understanding of space, expressed in the archaeology of households, the analysis of civic planning in cities and towns, the study of ancient landscapes, and most recently, how gender affects and is affected by architecture and other kinds of spatial order. Publications include her monograph Settlement Archaeology at Quirigu, Guatemala, and edited volumes Voices in American Archaeology (with D.T. Lippert and B.J. Mills), Archaeologies of Landscape: Contemporary Perspectives (with A.B. Knapp), and Household and Community in the Mesoamerican Past (with R.R. Wilk).

Matthew Canepa is Associate Professor of Art History and Classical and Near Eastern Studies at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. His research focuses on the intersection of art, ritual and power in the Eastern Mediterranean, Persia and the wider Iranian world. His first book, The Two Eyes of the Earth, was awarded the 2010 James Henry Breasted Prize from the American Historical Association for the best book in any field of history prior to the year A.D. 1000. Recent publications include articles on Iranian sacred spaces and the manipulation of Persian and Iranian identity through the natural and built environments. He is currently finishing a book exploring the transformation of Iranian identity, landscapes, architecture, and urbanism between Alexander and Islam.

John F. Cherry is Joukowsky Family Professor of Archaeology, Professor of Classics, and (by courtesy) Professor of Anthropology at Brown University. His fieldwork has focused on landscape archaeology and survey in Greece, but he has also worked in Great Britain, the United States, Yugoslav Macedonia, Italy, Armenia, and (currently) Montserrat. He is co-author or co-editor of 12 books and is at present writing a book entitled Cretan Transformations, on sociopolitical change on Crete at the turn of the third millennium B.C. He has been co-editor of the Journal of Mediterranean Archaeology for almost 25 years and is the General Series Editor for Joukowsky Institute Publications.

Thomas G. Garrison is a Lecturer in Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Southern California. His research focuses on landscape archaeology in the Maya lowlands and the application of digital technologies to archaeological problems. He is the director of the Proyecto Arqueolgico El Zotz in Guatemala, and is currently co-editing a volume on the first phase of research at the site.

Claudia Glatz is Lecturer in Mediterranean Archaeology at the University of Glasgow. Her research interests include the development of early social complexity, archaeological approaches to empire, the relationship of craft production and political power, as well as settlement and landscape studies, especially in border and transitional regions. Recent publications address practices of landscape monument construction and political competition in Bronze Age Anatolia and the western Zagros, and a range of approaches to the role and significance of plain pottery in Hittite Anatolia and its imperial relationships. She co-directs the Cide Archaeological Project, a survey on the west-central Turkish Black Sea coast, and the Sirwan Regional Project in the Kurdish Region of Iraq.

mr Harmanah is Assistant Professor of Archaeology and Ancient Western Asian Studies at Brown University. He works and teaches in the fields of archaeology, architectural history and material culture of the ancient Near East, particularly Turkey, Iraq, and Syria. His academic interests revolve around questions of place and landscape, bodily performance, local knowledge, collective memory, and political ecology. He is the author of Cities and the Shaping of Memory in the Ancient Near East (Cambridge University Press, 2013), and is currently working on a cultural biography of rock reliefs and spring monuments in Anatolia and a critical archaeology of place. Since 2010, he has been directing the Yalburt Yaylas Archaeological Landscape Research Project, a diachronic regional survey in west-central Turkey.

Janet D. Jones is Professor of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies at Bucknell University. Trained as a classical archaeologist at UNC-Chapel Hill, her research interests focus on the history of technology (particularly glass production) and the environmental impacts of preindustrial technologies. Recent publications include studies of Roman and Byzantine glass corpora from excavations in southern Jordan and scientific analyses of Iron Age glass finds from ancient Gordion (Turkey). She is currently examining the role of exploration and trade on the spread of technology along the Silk Road.
