个人简介
Peter Rowley-Conwy likes animal bones, plant remains, hunter-gatherers and early agriculturalists, and the history of archaeology. He is particularly keen on pigs, and has had two major research awards to examine pig archaeology. One from the AHRB brought Umberto Albarella to Durham for four years to study pig domestication and management in various parts of the world (Umberto has now moved on to a position in the Department of Archaeology and Prehistory at Sheffield University). The other involved sponsoring the three-year Wellcome Research Fellowship of Keith Dobney. Keith has moved on to a prestigious Sixth Century chair in the Department of Archaeology in the University of Aberdeen. The presence of these serious pig fanciers turned Durham into a major centre of porcine excellence.
While pigs are his first love, PR-C also turns his hand to other species when required. He has a long background in zooarchaeology, and has done a lot of work on animal bones in various parts of the world, species including horse, various deer species, and sheep (no jokes about his Welsh ancestry please). While fascinating in their own right, animal bones are really a means to a greater end: the reconstruction of past societies and ways of life. Reconstruction of hunter-gatherer settlement patterns is a major goal of his research, because this can make a major contribution to understanding wider aspects of prehistoric societies. He has worked on the Mesolithic of Denmark and southern Sweden.
