Katherine French

I am medievalist who uses bioarchaeology, zooarchaeology, and biomolecular analysis to study the past. I am particularly interested in late-stage pagan cemeteries in northern Europe, which typically contain both human and animal remains. My current research uses stable isotope analysis as a tool for understanding human and animal mobility in Central and Eastern Europe during later prehistory until the medieval transition. I previously worked in US cultural resource management in the Western and Mid-Atlantic United States, both for the National Park Service and a private firm.
