Simone Riehl is currently responsible for the archaeobotanical work group at the Institute for Archaeological Science. She studied early prehistory, geology, botany, archaeobotany and climatology at the Universities of Basel, Tübingen, Sheffield and Madison-Wisconsin. Her teaching covers archaeobotany and environmental archaeology. She is project archaeobotanist in several archaeological excavations in the Near East, including Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan and Iran. Simone‘s main areas of research include: palaeoethnobotany the emergence and development of agriculture, palaeoecology and environmental archaeology of the Middle East, ostracods as palaeoenvironmental indicators, palaeoclimate models in archaeology, stable carbon isotopes as palaeoclimate proxies.

Katleen Deckers is researcher and private docent at the Institute for Archaeological Science. Katleen studied archaeology at the University of Leuven and proceeded with a PhD on Cypriot geoarchaeology at the University of Edinburgh. She came to Tübingen in 2002, first as post-doctoral researcher in the DFG-Graduate College "Anatolia and its neighbours" and since then has collaborated in and directed several projects. She received an “Elite Grant” of the Landesstiftung Baden-Württemberg (2005-2009) and a Margarethe-von-Wrangell-Habilitation fellowship (2008-2013). In February 2014 she habilitated in “Archaeological Sciences” at the University of Tübingen.
Katleen is interested in the former interactions between people and their environment in the Near East, but also in other regions. She has applied a wide range of methodologies to investigate questions regarding this topic, including charcoal analysis (identification and diameter, ring-width and stable isotopic measurements), geoarchaeology, remote sensing, GIS-analysis, and Thermoluminescence screening.More...
is Head of the Archaeobotany Unit at the Baden-Württemberg State Office for Cultural Heritage and since 2012 Associated Professor at the Institute of Archaeological Science, University of Tübingen. Between 2007-2017 she was a research fellow at the Centre for Archaeological Science, KU Leuven, Belgium and from 2013 to 2017 part time research fellow at Royal Belgian Institute for Natural Sciences in Brussels. From 2001 to 2007 she has been Assistant Professor at the Laboratory of Palynology, department of Botany at Sofia University, Bulgaria.
Her research experience covers past vegetation and climate in relation to reconstruction of natural and anthropogenic vegetation change, as well as archaeobotanical studies related with the subsistence and land use strategies in Europe and the Near East. She seeks for effective mechanisms to integrate research-oriented aims and methods into heritage practice and rescue excavation projects. At Tübingen Elena Marinova teaches students in archaeobotany, environmental archaeology and paleoecology. More...

Doga Karakaya is an archaeobotanist who specialized in the identification of charred seeds and fruits. He finished his Ph.D. in 2020 at the University of Tübingen in the Natural Sciences in Archaeology Institute. In his dissertation, he focused on the archaeological transitions through analyzing the plant macro-remains from an Early Bronze-Iron Age settlement in south-central Turkey, Tell Tayinat. Recently, he was a post-doctoral researcher in the University of Tübingen studying the plant macro-remains from Zincirli Höyük in the Eastern Mediterranean Basin. This study was part of a larger project which aims to uncover the environmental impact of nomadic communities in the south-central Turkey through environmental archaeological methods. Furthermore, he is involved in several archaeological research projects in Turkey, Iran, Spain and Greece to investigate a wide range of research topics including the dispersal of crops, early agricultural ecosystems, the impact of land-use practices and subsistence during climatic and social instabilities.
