Autor

Valentina Tumolo gained a PhD in Archaeology at Sapienza University of Rome in Italy, with a dissertation on the Early Bronze Age seal-impressed vessels from the Levant and northeastern Syria, conducted in collaboration with the Eberhard Karls University of Tubingen in Germany. As well as the study of sealing systems and the organisation of craft production, her research interests centre on the dynamics leading to the emergence of complex societies and inequality, particularly focusing on the processes of storage and administration of food staples. Through successful participation in several excavations in Southwest Asia and large multi-disciplinary projects conducted in Italy, Germany, the UK, USA, and Spain, Tumolo has addressed and analysed topics associated with human behaviours in relation to resources exploitation, combining archaeological science techniques with conventional approaches to build coherent and effective narratives.
