• Expertise in macroscopic and typological characterisation, use-wear analysis, and/or experimental archaeology related to textile tools.
• An ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Availability to undertake (funded) short field visits to Greece (museum/study collection visits, library visits, laboratory visits).
• Proficiency in English is required; additional proficiencies in Polish or Greek would be considered advantageous.
• While MITAMBA has access to relevant material through established partnerships, a candidate with access to other relevant assemblages will have a significant advantage.

Opis zadań:

• Conduct comparative research on the textile tool assemblages of the Middle Bronze Age Aegean, with a focus on central Greece, northern Greece, and/or the northeastern Aegean basin.
• Publish research in peer-reviewed journals; present at conferences/ workshops.

You will have freedom to direct your own research emphasis within MITAMBA’s scope, but would be expected to examine a range of networks or regionalisms represented within textile tools. Possible avenues of emphasis include (but are not limited to) investigations of mobility through chemical analysis (NAA/petrography), comparative typologies and assemblage composition, production practices, consumption practices through comparative use-wear analysis, and/or experimental archaeology.
