Lorenz Rahmstorf serves as Director of the Department of Prehistory and Early History at the University of Göttingen, where he holds the rank of full Professor. His academic career centers on Bronze Age archaeology across Western Eurasia, with specialized expertise in ancient trade systems, weight metrology, and cross-cultural interactions between Mediterranean, Near Eastern, and European societies. Rahmstorf's research examines how standardized weight systems emerged as critical infrastructure for Bronze Age economies, analyzing artifacts from sites like Tell el-Dab'a, Tollense Valley, and Old Assyrian trade colonies. His work integrates textile production studies, metallurgical evidence, and genomic data to reconstruct trade networks and cultural exchanges during the 3rd-1st millennia BCE. Key themes include the transition from weight-regulated artifacts to currency, market integration processes, and the socioeconomic implications of long-distance exchange. His recent publications demonstrate consistent focus on weight metrology as a diagnostic tool for economic complexity, spanning Bronze Age Europe to Mesopotamia. The research reveals standardized weight systems operating across 3,000+ km from Scandinavia to the Indus Valley, indicating sophisticated pre-monetary economies. Parallel investigations into textile tools and ritual objects contextualize metrology within broader cultural frameworks, while medieval Icelandic studies extend his analytical framework to later periods. Scientific awards: No awards specified in source material Rahmstorf's departmental leadership involves directing archaeological fieldwork and laboratory analysis, particularly regarding Bronze Age trade artifacts. The absence of student listings or grant details in available sources suggests these aspects fall outside current public documentation scope. His editorial work on weight systems volumes indicates active curation of international research collaborations. The Department of Prehistory and Early History maintains specialized facilities for artifact metrology and material analysis, supporting Rahmstorf's research on balance weights, textile tools, and trade-related objects. Current projects appear focused on comparative weight system standardization across Bronze Age Eurasia, utilizing interdisciplinary approaches combining archaeology, anthropology, and economic history.
