Christopher Stojanowski is a bioarchaeologist who uses information from ancient sites to reconstruct the lives of past peoples, focusing on the Holocene skeletal record of the New World and Africa. He has written on community organization and ethnogenesis in the colonial Southeast, Archaic period mortuary rituals in North America, and Early and Middle Holocene lifestyles in the Sahara Desert. He is interested in both the social and humanistic aspects of bioarchaeological inquiry as reflected in key publications on identity and ethnogenesis, the archaeological "body", and the role of anthropology in shaping and unshaping race in the context of human experience.
