Summary
Gregory Bondar is a lecturer in anthropology with over 25 years of interdisciplinary teaching and field experience bridging natural sciences, engineering, and social sciences to examine how technology shapes societies. He teaches a broad suite of courses across archaeology, STS, geography, and digital humanities while serving as surveyor on archaeological projects in Egypt and Jordan, applying 3D modeling, scanning, and neutron activation analysis to reconstruct prehistoric trade and landscapes. Trained in both mechanical engineering and anthropology (BS, BA; MA and ABD at Penn State), he combines technical skills—XML/XSLT/XQuery and computational methods—with deep regional expertise from Mesoamerica to Eastern North America and Peru. Known for translating complex material science and surveying techniques into classroom-ready narratives, he specialises in archaeological mapping and digital scholarship that makes field data accessible and analytically powerful.
