Teaching Summary

My office hours in the autumn semester 2021 are: Tuesdays 12-1 and Fridays 3-4.

I teach and supervise Undergraduate, Masters and PhD students.

The undergraduate modules I teach and contribute to are:

Understanding the past 1 (1st year), Great Discoveries (1st year), (Tri-campus) Silk Roads: cultural interactions and perceptions module (2nd and 3rd years) and Through a glass darkly (2nd and 3rd years) . I supervise dissertations based on content of these modules.

At Masters level I teach Special topic 1 and 2. I supervise dissertations in topics associated with the Silk Road and archaeological science (materials).

I welcome PhD applications that focus on research in aspects of my Silk Road project, aspects of early Islamic archaeology, the application of innovative scientific techniques to ancient glass and glazed ceramics in the investigation of trade, technology and provenance in a wide range of cultural contexts including the earliest glass in western Asia and south-west Asia.

Current PhD Students (primary supervisor):

1. Pin Lyu (70%)

2. Imogen Worrall (50%)

3 Lingyu Qin (70%)

4. Wang Yang (70%)

5. Xue Xiyan (70%)

Research Summary

Research Summary

I direct the international Silk Road project and welcome enquiries from potential research students that map onto the links between East and West, especially in the Medieval period.

The key Middle Eastern site of Raqqa on the river Euphrates in Syria has provided an excellent focus for wide-ranging interdisciplinary collaborative research:

. The project has provided a platform for another area of my research: . The combination of isotopic (Nd, Sr, Pb, O) and chemical analysis, especially of plant ash glasses, and of the raw materials used to make them (plant ash and silica- quartz pebbles and sand), is leading to novel insights into ancient glass technologies (the sources of raw materials) and providing a geological provenance for plant ash glasses for the first time. The first detailed scientific analysis of the plants suitable for glass production in the Middle East has been published and that for silica sources is in preparation. Moreover, the research has been extended to include the provenance of early European glass (funded by the British Academy and NERC).

Further current research projects include:

I regularly give invited lectures at other universities. These have recently included Peking University (Beijing), Sun Yet Sen University (Guangzhou), Northwest Univesity (X'an), Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai), Bonn University, Ca' Foscari University (Venice), Texas A and M University (USA), University of Texas at Dallas.

Past Research

My research has been broadly concerned with the archaeological and scientific characteristics of ancient materials, especially vitreous materials and ceramics. Moreover, my research focuses on ancient technology in ancient social, economic and political contexts. Projects have included the study of Sudanese faience, Chinese ceramics and enamels, Islamic pottery, prehistoric European and Middle Eastern glasses, Islamic (enamelled) glasses, and Roman, early Islamic, medieval and post-medieval glasses in the west. The AHRC, British Academy and Max van Berchem Foundation funded Raqqa (Syria) ancient industry project, which I directed, involves archaeological excavations of a 2km long early Islamic industrial complex of 9th-12th century date. We revealed the most comprehensive evidence for primary glass production for any inland site in the Middle East. Furthermore we discovered several pottery workshops. The interpretation was set in an environmental context using GIS and satellite imagery, environmental coring, the harvesting of halophytic plants suitable for glass production and their scientific analysis, the collection of silica sources and an investigation of ancient pollution. Comprehensive scientific analysis of the industrial evidence has been carried out and this continues. Investigations of relationships between pottery and glass technologies, including fuel use, furnace/ kiln design and sharing of other raw material sources formed an important part of the research.
