  1. Huntress- Could you clarify more on what topics/areas you are interested in Bioarchaeology? The field has quickly diversified and specialized in the past few years. I too, am a Bioarch major and Art History minor at UPenn, and am looking at places to continue research. Combining these two areas of research is not unknown, but the biological analysis of artifacts usually falls under the auspices of Art Conservation. Some ares of Bioarch/ArtHist study: -Tomb Grave Assemblages(think skeletonized/mummifed/clothed remains in situ of formal burial sites) -Synthesis of pottery form/function and interior residue analysis -Dating studies -Prehistoric and ancient tool-making -Medical Imaging of artifacts -Metallurgy -Forensics Some schools with known bioarch/art/paleopath programs are: Oxford- scientific study of material culture Cambridge- Biological Anthropology UCL- Bioarchaelogy and Analysis of Archaeological materials Ohio State- Bioarchaelogy Arizona State- Bioarchaelogy Durham- Bioarchaelogy Delaware- Art Conservation
