Tees Valley, United Kingdom Teesside University Full time

Based at the National Horizons Centre in Darlington, the School of Health and Life Sciences is seeking to appoint a Post-doctoral Research Associate to a post for 36 months. The successful candidate will join a team of researchers in the AHRC funded ‘PELLIS project: Investigating the manufacture, trade, and economy of Roman leather through multi-analytical approaches’. The PELLIS project will investigate the economic and manufacturing history of the Roman provinces and frontiers, specifically aiming to enhance our understanding of the leather economy in the Roman Empire. Archaeological leather artefacts are rare and only preserve in exceptional environments. The project aims to combine scientific and humanistic approaches to explore leather preservation and processing of hides in the Roman world, as well as to establish sex and species origin of the leather used in a range of objects. We expect results to lead to greater understanding of herd management and agricultural practices, regional trade networks, raw materials exploitation, and possibly the socio-economic factors surrounding the use of animals in the Roman period. The Teesside University based researcher will be responsible for the proteomics development of LC-MS/MS. A background in archaeological proteomic (ZooMS) data analysis, knowledge of Roman economy and organic artefact analysis, such as leather is desired. The project involves investigators and post-doctoral researchers across four research academic organisations (UCL, University of Western Ontario in Canada, North Carolina State University in the US, and Teesside University) and our partners (Vindolanda Trust, National Museum Scotland and Rijksmuseum van Oudheden).
