Dr Sheila Kohring

My work focuses on technological practices as they related to community relationships and about how technologies help shape identities. I have worked primarily on 3^rdmillennium BC pottery and art in western Europe, although I have studied ceramic technology more widely and my interests have extended to prehistoric lithic technology as well.  I am also interested in ideas of the body and health as embedded social concepts in prehistory.  I have conducted fieldwork in Belize, the eastern United States, Spain, The Channel Islands, southern and eastern England and Myanmar.
