معرفی
Dr. Benjamin Schoville is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Heritage and Culture, University of Southern Queensland (UniSQ), specializing in experimental archaeology, lithic analysis, and human-environment interactions during the Middle Stone Age in the Kalahari Basin. His work bridges archaeological ecology with digital heritage modeling, focusing on social transmission patterns, climate change impacts on human innovation, and 3D scanning of sacred sites.
Research interests include:
- Lithic tool function and damage analysis
- Paleoenvironmental reconstruction through tufa deposits
- Digital replication of cultural heritage
- Climate change and human evolutionary behavior
Recent publications highlight his contributions to understanding Middle Stone Age technological responses to glacial cycling, ostrich eggshell bead networks, and controlled projectile experiments. Articles often involve interdisciplinary methods combining geoarchaeology, experimental approaches, and computational modeling.
