Description: Curriculum vitae and research project information for this University of Alberta Professor. Research interests include the skeletal biology of Ancient Egypt and skeletal stresses in the Canadian fur trade.
Nancy Lovell (PhD Cornell, 1987) is Professor Emeritus of Anthropology in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Alberta. A bioarchaeologist, she is interested in the skeletal biology of ancient peoples, particularly how their skeletons reveal aspects of the interrelationships between culture, environment, and health. She also has conducted research on the assessment of biological affinities of past populations and on methods of osteobiography (e.g., age estimation and sex determination). She has excavated ancient cemeteries in Egypt and Pakistan, and has studied human skeletal remains from ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Indus Valley Civilization, and from historic cemeteries of the Fur Trade Period in western Canada.
