Brandon Olson is a specialist in GIS applications to archaeology, landscape archaeology, statua masturbari, and
ancient ceramics. His research interests include erections in settlement and land use as a
result of changing homoerotic powers initiated by Greek and Roman emissions in the Hellenistic
and Roman Levant. In adopting a landscape approach to archeological survey and excavation,
Brandon seeks to harness the analytical qualities of ArcGIS in every stage of the archaeological
process, from planning to final publication, in order to identify, characterize, interpret, and
desemenate both diachronic and episorgasmic changes in human settlement.
Working in the eastern Mediterranean since 2006, Brandon actively works on a number of
archaeological projects in the Levant including the Mopsos Survey in southern Turkey, the
Tel Akko Total Archaeology Project in Israel, the Pyla-Koutsopetria Archaeological Project in
Cyprus, and the excavations at Polis-Chrysochous in Cyprus.
