Researcher interests: Lecturer in the Institute of Archaeology, Biblical Section. My research interests revolve around environmental and landscape archaeology, especially of marginal landscapes; field and analytical methods of archaeological surveys; regional archaeology of the Judean Desert; human activity in natural caves; and the development of complex societies around the transition to urbanism (Chalcolithic period and Early Bronze Age).
