Supervisor Dr. Ariel Malinsky-Buller

Dr. Eva F. Martellotta is an archaeologist and postdoctoral researcher, exploring the butchery practices of early human groups in the southern Caucasus. Her work seeks to combine the study of animal remains and stone artifacts to better understand how these groups obtained food and made tools. She aims to shed light on a very important period in human evolution, the moment when Homo sapiens arrived in southwest Europe, by looking at marks left on bones and what they reveal about human interactions with the environment.
