Benjamin Irvine is a Bioarchaeology specialist at the British Institute at Ankara, focusing on prehistoric human-environment interactions in Anatolia and adjacent regions. He holds a PhD from Freie Universität Berlin (2017) and served as BIAA Postdoctoral Fellow (2018-20).
- Key research areas: Bioarchaeology, Stable Isotope Analysis (δ13C, δ15N, δ34S), Human Mobility, Prehistoric Anatolia
His work synthesizes osteological and isotopic data with archaeological context to reconstruct dietary habits, subsistence practices, and mobility patterns from the Neolithic to Byzantine periods. Recent studies examine the Aegean World dietary consistency (2025), İkiztepe coastal diet (2020), and Titriş Höyük urbanism (2021).
Article trends reveal a strong focus on stable isotopic methodologies, with recurring themes in agricultural strategies, weaning practices, and climate-human interaction. He advocates for open-access platforms like BioIsoANE to integrate regional isotopic data.
