The project Building in New Lands funded by Kone Foundation invites applications for the position of postdoctoral researcher in Archaeobotany. The project “Building in New Lands: Phoenician sustainable architecture and environmental adaptation along the Mediterranean Sea” affiliated with the Centre of Excellence in Ancient Near Eastern Empires is pleased to announce a fixed-term research fellowship concentrated on archaeobotany and micromorphology. This project investigates Mediterranean Iron Age earthen architecture, specifically mudbricks, as integral part of material culture. The study aims to examine changes in architectural form and technology alongside the reconstruction of technological and social processes of earthen materials manufacture and construction. This call is particularly targeted to archaeobotanist who are familiar with phytoliths and macroremains analyses of building materials. Applications from scholars wishing to collaborate across disciplinary boundaries, such as Archaeology, Anthropology, Heritage studies and geoscience, are particularly encouraged.
