James Armstrong received his Ph.D. in Mesopotamian Archaeology from the University of Chicago in 1989. He is now Assistant Curator of Collections in the Semitic Museum and teaches Mesopotamian Archaeology in NELC. Most of his archaeological fieldwork has been carried out in Iraq and Syria. Recently he's been dividing his research time between digging with the University of Pennsylvania Expedition to Tell es-Sweyhat in northern Syria and working on a Mesopotamian ceramic typology.
