Dr. Nicholas Kraus

Nick Kraus is currently the Mellon Foundation Postdoctoral Researcher at the British Museum, where he is working on a project that investigates the materiality of cuneiform tablets and their production. Dr. Kraus holds degrees in Classics and Near Eastern Archaeology from the University of British Columbia and the University of Toronto, and received his PhD in Assyriology from Yale University. In addition to studying cuneiform, his research includes nearly a decade of archaeological fieldwork at sites in the Middle East, as well as scientific and digital methods of investigation like Reflectance Transformation Imaging, X-Ray Fluorescence, 3-D Imaging, and Social Networking Analysis. Prior to joining the British Museum, Nick was a research fellow at the Free University Berlin where he won two grants to conduct his own research projects. He then went on to hold a research position at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences in Munich. Most recently, he took up his current position as a Project Curator with the British Museum.
