Force Analysis of Ancient Greco-Roman Rams and Warships (2017)
Ancient naval warfare is a subject of fascination for many archaeologists, but little is known about the actual warships; the lack of available archaeological material makes the study of naval warfare largely hypothetical. The recovery of the Athlit Ram in 1980 and other subsequent finds, such as the Egadi Rams, expanded the available archaeological material drastically, and may provide some insight as to the physical characteristics and limitations of warships of the era. The purpose of this...
Landscape Histories and Terrestrial Networks in the Peloponnese: Results from the Western Argolid Regional Project (Offprint) (2024)
The Western Argolid Regional Project (WARP) is an intensive pedestrian survey of 30 km2, located northwest of Argos along the banks of the Inachos River. Using high-intensity collection strategies, WARP generated very fine-resolution data that provide insights into the ways this seemingly marginal area contributed to and was impacted by regional histories. A key question is how the network of mountainous routes that traverse this landscape, connecting the area to the Corinthia and Arkadia, may...

Western Argolid Regional Project (WARP), Field Manual 2014-2016 Seasons (2020)
The Western Argolid Regional Project (WARP) is an interdisciplinary archaeological project that sought to collect and interpret evidence of human activity from prehistory to the modern day in the western Argolid, Greece. Our survey area consists of 30 km2 to the northwest of the ancient and modern city of Argos, where the fertile Argive Plain transitions into a series of mountainous valleys along the course of the Inachos River, which we surveyed over three field seasons from 2014-2016. Although...
Yield Strength of the Egadi 10 Warship: Using Nonlinear Computer Simulations to Examine Collision Dynamics in Greco-Roman Naval Conflicts (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The study of ancient Mediterranean naval warfare expanded dramatically with the emergence of maritime archaeology and the subsequent discovery of artifacts and ship remains such as the Athlit and Egadi rams. The ship timbers preserved inside the rams radically increased available information on ancient warships. These timbers offer a tantalizing glimpse at vessel construction, but...
