About

Projekt management of the DAS-Project:
The aim of the DAS-project (Digitization of the Archaeological Collection of the Lippischen Landesmuseums Detmold) is the digitization of all objects of the archaeological Collection of the Museum, to make all object available via the new media. For this, the internet portals "museum-digital" and "europeana" will be used, where all the digitized objects can then be searched.

From May 2009 till May 2011 I´ve worked als a Scientific Volunteer and  Prehistoric Archaeologist at the Dep. of Ground Monument Conservation at the Lippisches Landesmuseum Detmold.

My ongoing dissertation (University of Köln) research focused on the analysis of two settlements of the neolithic Linear Pottery Culture (Linienbandkeramik / LBK,  c. 5650-4900 BC) in the region of the Aldenhovener Platte, Rhineland. This includes the processing of ceramic, flint artefacts, houses, network-analysis, exchange networks, the relationships between the settlements of the Aldenhovenern Platte and correspondence analysis.

Abstract of my MA-thesis (2005):
Around 5300 cal.BC the first farmers (Linear Pottery Culture) reached the Rhineland. For the region of the Aldenhovener Platte / Rhineland, a complex system of raw material exchange was proposed by A. Zimmermann (1995) in which main settlements (distributors) passed on cores, blades and final products to secondary and single farmstead settlements (receivers). With reference to the Early Neolithic settlement Erkelenz-Kückhoven, this paper sets out to demonstrate that similar processes, resembling a “receiver / distributor-settlement”-pattern, actually occurred within individual settlements. It is likely that these resulted from different social units within the settlement.

I´m a also member of the Working Group Characteristic Catalog / AG - Merkmalskatalog :
The pottery decorations (e.g. typ of band decorations etc.) of the ceramic of the Linear Pottery Culture are the base of the chronology of this neolithic culture and can be analysed by a correspondence analysis. Since the SAP-Project (Siedlungsarchäologie der Aldenhovener Platte) started in 1973, the catalog of the pottery decorations of the Linear Pottery Cultures has become increasingly large. With this base further analyses and comparisons of finds and settlements can be done. This leads to a better unterstanding of the regional differences between the settlements and the chronology of the Linear Pottery Culture.

The catalog ist now finished and online!!!!!

I am interested in network analysis, correspondence analysis, GIS, gvSIG (a freeware GIS), analysis of flint artefacts, neolithic topics and especially the Linienbandkeramik culture / Linear Pottery Culture. I´ve also got field experience (Germany, Israel, Jordan, Nepal, Spain).
