2022–2023年云南省香格里拉市旧石器考古调查报告

Welcome to my website!

I am a PhD student in archaeology at the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I am currently a visiting student in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Washington. My supervisors are Professor Hao Li and Professor Ben Marwick.

My research focuses on Middle Paleolithic technological behavior and human adaptation in East Asia. During my master’s studies, I investigated Quina retouch in Southwest China. In my doctoral research, I am examining core reduction technology across a broader region of China.

Methodologically, I am particularly interested in quantitative approaches. My current work mainly combines 3D geometric morphometric analysis with data analysis in R and Python. I believe that quantitative methods represent an important direction for the future development of Paleolithic archaeology, as they allow us to better understand past human technological behavior and cognitive decision-making from a more objective perspective.

I am also strongly committed to Open Science. By making data and code openly available, I hope to contribute to making lithic study more reproducible and, in the long term, to supporting the development of truly large-scale data-driven research in Paleolithic archaeology.
