Islamic Archaeology
The Institute of Archaeology offers extensive coverage of the archaeology of the Islamic world, with expertise ranging from the Mediterranean, Central Asia, the Indian sub-continent and China. Staff undertake field research in many countries, while major thematic areas include the development of Islamic urbanism, landscape archaeology, the built environment, maritime archaeology, material culture and the application of scientific methods to the study of the Islamic world. Interdisciplinary methods and approaches are a particular strength and the Institute is home to a series of major research projects.
