Rebecca Storey, BA (Smith College), MA (Columbia University), PhD (The Pennsylvania State University).  Her prime area of research is bio-archaeology, which allows the combination of archaeology and biological anthropology.  She studies the human skeletons from the Pre-Columbian civilizations of Mesoamerica.  She has worked at Teotihuacan in Central Mexico, but for the past almost 20 years, she has been working at the Classic Maya site of Copan, Honduras, the largest skeletal population for this period so far.  Her interests are in demography, paleo-pathology, and the comparative study of lifestyles in the past that can be determined from skeletons.  She also has an interest in literature, especially 18th and 19th century, and how it gets translated into movies in our time.
