Profil

I'm a classical archaeologist with a BA from the University of Groningen, a MA from the University of Cologne, and a PhD from Aarhus University. 

After having been involved in reserach projects around Palmyra and its portraiture, I'm currently developing an achaeology program for school children for the NGO Videnskabsklubben. 

 

Forskning

My reserach focusses on portraiture from the Roman period. In my MA thesis I explored gender and socialisation through the depiction of children in the funerary sphere.

My PhD focused on the production of Palmyrene portraits, including a detailed study of tool traces, the structure and scope of the production and the carvers' and customers' influence on the final product. 

I also (co)published articles on the funerary sculpture from Palmyra, the archival materials of the Danish archaeologist Harald Ingholt and reuse practices in Antiquity.

Uddannelse

During my PhD I took the course: Introduction to University Teaching for PhD students.

 

Samarbejder

My work in collaboration with Videnskabsklubben is my first step into my journey into scientific outreach. I have develeoped educational activities that explain archaeology and archaeological science in a vivid way to school children, also providing background information on each topic. The program will, for the first time, start in 10 schools all over Denmark. Mentors from the 10 gymnasiums will lead the mini-reseracher (4th and 5th grade) through the program.  

I took a course in Science Outreach at DMJX, learning more about outreach via different media such as newspapers, websites, and podcasts.

I am co-organizer of a course at the Folkeuniversitet (winter 2024) where I will also be giving a talk on lost cities myself.
