Dr. Davide Tanasi (University of South Florida) is a specialist of Sicilian and Maltese archaeology with a special interest in mobility and exchange in Mediterranean prehistory, pottery technology and archaeometry of ancient ceramics. A decade of research on the Maltese Bronze Age has brought him to publish several articles on that subject and the monographs Site, artefacts, landscape: prehistoric Borġ in-Nadur (Polimetrica, 2011) and The late prehistory of Malta: essays on Borġ in-Nadur and other sites (Archaeopress, 2015), both generously sponsored by The Shelby White Leon Levy Program for Archaeological Publications.
