About

I completed in September 2016 a PhD in Archaeology (University of Strasbourg, France jointly with University of Münster, Germany) on the Hittites’ kingdom capital Boğazköy / Ḫattuša entitled “The Lower City of Boğazköy during the Second Millennium BC: Political & Urban restructuring into a Kingdom’s Capital.” I examined the evolution of social patterns of the domestic quarters, at the critical moment when the site became the political capital of the Hittites.

I am particularly interested in developing theory and methods for exploring archaeological, historical and geographical data together and making an open, transparent and reproducible research. Most of my work is written with R using Rmarkdown or a derivative.
