Connecting Elites and Regions by Robert Schumann
Connecting Elites and Regions presents regional overviews and discussions of the Early Iron Age Hallstatt C period in Northwest and Central Europe to highlight the long-distance connections that existed and to stimulate research into this period on a supra-regional level.
Dr. Robert Schumann is currently postdoc at the Institute for Pre- and Protohistoric Archaeology of the University of Hamburg. He gained his PhD at the University of Munich with a thesis about status and prestige in the Early Iron Age (published 2015) and is among others involved in research projects about Early Hallstatt sumptuous burials in Bavaria and Upper Austria. Sasja van der Vaart-Verschoof is a freelance consultant, researcher and editor known as the Overdressed Archeologist & Editor. In addition to publishing half a dozen books with us, she frequently collaborates with Sidestone Press doing both copy editing, book design and our social media marketing. Sasja obtained her Research Master cum laude in 2012, and her RMA-thesis was nominated both for the W.A. van Es Prize for Dutch Archaeology (2012) and the Leiden University Thesis Prize (2012). As a student, and later as a research assistant she was involved in the Ancestral Mounds project of David Fontijn. She also worked on the design and construction of the exhibition “Archaeology of the Netherlands” during a yearlong internship at the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities. From 2012 to 2017 she was a PhD researcher at the Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University (the Netherlands). She was awarded an NWO research grant for her PhD project entitled Constructing powerful identities. The conception and meaning of ‘rich’ Hallstatt burials in the Low Countries (800-500 BC). She completed her PhD in December 2017, and in June 2018 she was awarded the Joseph Déchelette European Archaeology Prize for her two-volume dissertation Fragmenting the Chieftain published in the Museum of Antiquities’ PALMA series.
