Ancient Greek history, esp. the archaic and classical periods, with an emphasis on the history of labour. I'm more broadly interested in how practical and material aspects of the economy feed into social history, not just in terms of the different occupations and tasks performed by individuals, but how the economy fitted together, including issues of technology, mobility, and supply chains. I have side interests in ancient Greek law, the history of seafaring, and the history of Crete.
