Faculty

I am an Assistant Professor in Archeology at the NBU and a specialist in prehistoric chipped stones technologies. I have been involved in numerous archaeological projects in Western Anatolia, the Balkans and Southern Caucasus such as Troy, Aşaği Pinar, Barcın Höyük, Aktopraklik, Çukuriçi Höyük, Yenibademli Höyük, Keçiçayırı, Küllüoba, Micro Vouni, Aruchlo, Pietrele, Kouphovouno. My PhD topic is closely connected with the lithic production in the Northern Aegean and Western Anatolia during the Late Prehistory.


In the course of my work I was fortunate to have succeeded in establishing fruitful cooperation and strong collegial relationships with a number of internationally recognized Institutes and Universities, and I look forward to an opportunity to share these connections and collaboration possibilities with my future students. Among them are the Istanbul University, Koç University, Netherlands Institute in Turkey, German Archaeological Institute, Institute for Oriental and European Archaeology at the Austrian Academy of Science, The Field Museum in Chicago and many others.


In addition to my research interests, I have a record of strong academic performance and teaching experience. During the past 15 years I have been teaching multiple courses in archaeology for undergraduate and graduates students; carrying out practical workshops; organizing academic programs; supervising BA and MA theses.
