Sciuto, Claudia (Dr.)
Claudia Sciuto is a research fellow in environmental archaeology at the University of Pisa, Italy.

Her work is transdisciplinary since it entails a methodological and theoretical reflection as well as morphological/archaeometric analysis of materials, and ethnographic fieldwork. She currently leads a research team for the project “Forsaken ecologies” which aims at investigating the metamorphoses of cultural landscapes in the Apuan Alps.
