Sarah has worked with survey and excavation projects in Cyprus and Egypt, with a particular focus on mortuary archaeology, identity theory, systematic site survey, and pottery and small finds analysis. Having spent several years living and researching on Cyprus she maintains close links with the Island and with the Cypriot archaeological community. Sarah is also involved in the international collaboration Material Connections.

Through her own research and her ongoing work in the public sector, Sarah has extensive experience of creating, operating and maintaining complex data management, analysis and presentation systems. She is passionate about improving access to archaeological information for people of all ages and levels of knowledge, whether through publications, presentations, the provision of specialist databases for academic research, or Museum exhibitions.


Luke's interests include landscape archaeology, the development of non-destructive survey techniques, and the considered collection, management and presentation of information. He has worked on archaeological field projects in Cyprus and Egypt, and with community history projects in Scotland, developing survey and recording strategies as well as designing and maintaining relational databases, geographic information systems (GIS) and websites.

He holds that data systems should be shaped by the information that they store and the individuals that use them, and designs systems in close collaboration with project staff and specialists. The data and the user are his primary consideration, not the technology.
