I am a senior at the University at Albany majoring in Anthropology and Classical archaeology. I am planning to pursue graduate study in Near Eastern archaeology beginning next year. Academically I'm interested in the history, literature, and culture of pretty much all cultures and civilizations, but particularly that of the Ancient, Medieval, and Early Modern periods in Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Specific topics I like include biblical archaeology and higher criticism, Mesopotamian history and literature, Egyptology, Eurasian nomads, the history of the Indo-European languages, the so-called Dark Ages and Early Modern warfare. I'm also interested in dinosaurs, primatology, biology and genetics, and the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
