Andrea Umberto De Giorgi
I am a sixth year graduate student from Torino, Italy. I received my BA at the University of Torino, Italy, in 1997 and my MA at Bryn Mawr in 2001. My dissertation project analyzes the socio-economic variables at work in the territory of Roman Antioch at the time of the Pax Romana, relying on the survey data assembled by the Amuq Valley Regional Project in the years 95-05. My other interests are ancient economy, social history of the Roman Eastern provinces, the Greco-Roman city and finally Athenian politics in 415 BCE. I survey/excavate in affiliation with the following projects:

Eliese Dow
I received my BA in Classics from the University of Dallas.

Crystal Fritz
I am a PhD candidate in Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology. I received my BA from Kalamazoo College in 2001 and my MA from Bryn Mawr College in 2001. Past fieldwork includes projects at Tel Kedesh, Israel and Berenike, Egypt. I am currently involved in excavations at Muweilah, in the United Arab Emirates and at the Villa of Maxentius in Rome. Research interests include: imperial Rome, ceramic studies, issues of cultural exchange and interaction between Greece and Rome and the Near East, the Iron Age in the Near East and the Archaeology of Arabia. I am currently working on my PhD thesis (directed by Peter Magee), which examines social and economic behaviors in Iron Age II SE Arabia by looking at the use of ceramics in context and regional patterns of exchange.

Marie Goodwin
I am a seventh year graduate student in the Department of Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology. I received my B.A. in ancient Greek at Vassar College in 1989, and my M.A. at Bryn Mawr in 1998. I am currently researching and writing my dissertation on the Aegean Bronze Age Conception and organization of time. While Aegean prehistory is my main focus, I am also interested in the archaeology of Bronze and Iron age Central and South Asia, Late Bronze Anatolia, archaeoastronomy, the history and development of science in antiquity, the social and political history of 5th century Greece, as well as how past cultures viewed and utilized their own past. In addition to dissertation research, I am pursuing a certificate in Historic Preservation at the University of Pennsylvania part-time and plan to specialize in archaeological site management. Currently I am a member of the Kommos team in Crete, amd I have participated in the excavations of Fistikli Hoyuk in SE Turkey, Mochlos on Crete, and the Athenian Agora.
