I am an associate member of the UMR5608 - TRACES, my research within the PSH Team: Premières sociétés holocènes : innovation, anthropisation et complexification.

Since 2008, I have been working on the theme ‘From the Neolithic to complex societies in the Near East, the Nile Valley and the Horn of Africa’ with the team working on Predynastic Egypt. For more details on my work, please consult my Academia page, the laboratory directory or the references on HAL.
