About this position

This postdoctoral position is based at the Institut Català d'Arqueologia Clàssica in Tarragona, Spain, within the ICAC Landscape Archaeology Research Group. The project is centred on archaeobotanical research in carpology and aims to study the evolution of food practices and tastes associated with plant-based foods in the Mediterranean.

The successful researcher will work on the analysis of plant macroremains from archaeological contexts, covering periods from the Bronze Age to the medieval period. The role includes processing archaeological samples, carrying out laboratory analyses, managing and interpreting data, and drafting scientific results. A further core theme is the analysis of stable isotopes in plant remains, especially cereals and legumes, to better understand the uses, processing, and consumption of plant-based foods in antiquity.

The position also involves experimental archaeobotany, including experimental carbonization, as well as geometric morphometric analysis applied to archaeobotanical remains. The researcher will contribute to studies on the role of minority cereals, participate in archaeobotany fieldwork, and help maintain and support the archaeobotany laboratory. In addition, the post includes dissemination activities related to food archaeology and archaeobotany, knowledge-transfer work with the UTIS, support for competitive funding applications, and participation in the broader research activities of the group.

This is a research-intensive role embedded in an active archaeological environment, combining fieldwork, lab-based archaeobotanical analysis, experimental work, and scientific communication.
