About
My current research focuses on the historiography and landscape archaeology of the Antonine Wall, imperial Rome's northwest frontier in central Scotland. I am interested in the Wall as a Roman monument, but also in its various re-uses, reimaginations, and reception in the early medieval to modern periods.
I am also interested in archaeological theory, culture change and Empire. I maintain research interests in Rome's Provincia Arabia, particularly at the site of Tall Hisban (Hellenistic-Byzantine "Esbus") in Jordan.
I am a member of the standing committee for the Theoretical Roman Archaeology Conference (TRAC) through 2013.
Some recent publications include 'TRAC 2011: Proceedings of the Twenty First Theoretical Roman Archaeology Conference' (http://bit.ly/wRhZcR) which I co-edited with Maria Duggan and Frances McIntosh, 'Chorography: History, Theory and Potential for Archaeological Research' (http://bit.ly/yV8mg6) published in TRAC 2011, and 'The chorographic tradition and seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Scottish antiquaries' (http://bit.ly/wUv6VC) which is published in the Journal of Art Historiography.
