The University of Basel's Integrative Prehistory and Archaeological Science (IPAS) is inviting applications for a PhD position in archaeobotany. IPAS is a unique collaboration between the humanities and the natural sciences, taking an interdisciplinary approach to researching and better understanding the human past from the Stone Age to the present day. Your focus will be the archaeobotanical analysis of a Neolithic lakeshore settlement in Switzerland. This PhD position forms part of an SNF Weave/Lead Agency Project entitled “Deciphering Lakeside Settlements”. The successful candidate will analyse the archaeobotanical material and conduct an interdisciplinary reconstruction of the ecology and cultural landscape. They will collaborate closely with the other disciplines involved in the project, including palynology, archaeozoology/ichtyoarchaeology, isotopes, and sediment genetics.
