About the Author
Evita Kalogiropoulou is a Senior Researcher, the Principal Investigator of the research projects BONDS, 'Beyond Oikos: οutdoor spaces, daily life and sociality in Neolithic Greece', hosted at the University of Crete and funded by the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation. She was an Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Thessaly, a Post-doctoral Fellow at the Aristotle University of the Thessaloniki and the Institute for Mediterranean Studies of the Foundation for Research and Technology (FORTH) and a Research Associate of the McBurns Laboratory of the University of Cambridge. Her research lays on the materiality of cooking practices, the formation of social identities and community-scale social developments.
Tuna Kalayci is an assistant professor at the Department of Archaeological Sciences, Leiden University. Before joining Leiden University, he was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellow at the ISPC-CNR (Italy) and Durham University(UK). His interests include sensor data integration, urban studies, environmental modelling, production landscapes, and landscapes of movement within Near Eastern and Mediterranean contexts. His research tacks between data science and archaeology.
Evagelia Karimali is a prehistoric archaeologist (Ph.D. Boston University), with specialization at lithic technology. She has been an external researcher at FORTH. She has studied and published several articles on Aegean and Mediterranean lithic collections (Platia Magoula Zarkou, Orgozinos, Pefkakia and other Neolithic Thessalian sites; Paximadi Peninsula, Euboea; Halai, Lokris).
