David Stone (Ph.D., Michigan) specializes in Roman Archaeology. A desire to illuminate the lives of the inhabitants of the ancient countryside and the provinces of the Roman empire guides his scholarship. The University of Toronto Press published Mortuary Landscapes of North Africa, a volume he co-edited with Lea Stirling, in 2007. David has an extensive background in archaeological fieldwork; he has worked in Greece, Italy, Egypt and Israel, and for the last nine years has co-directed the Leptiminus Archaeological Project, an interdisciplinary research program investigating the town of Leptiminus (modern Lamta, Tunisia). He joined the Department in the Fall of 2003.
Recently he has taught courses for undergraduates (Great Discoveries in Archaeology, Art and Archaeology of Ancient Italy, Pompeii) and graduates (The Ancient Economy, Food and Society in Ancient Rome, Art and Archaeology of the Late Roman Empire).
