Biography
David is an archaeologist and long-term resident of Siem Reap, Cambodia, where he has lectured and led tour groups for over a decade. Growing up near Sydney, Australia, his fascination for world history and archaeology was born in the civilisations of the ancient Mediterranean.
He then joined the University of Sydney’s Greater Angkor Project, an international, multi-disciplinary research program into the city’s development, daily life and decline. David’s research investigates Angkorian urbanism and decline, using remote sensing, field survey and GIS to analyse its urban history, demise and transformation. He received his PhD in Archaeology from the University of Sydney in 2020.
David regularly leads tours throughout Asia and Europe. His archaeological research in Cambodia is ongoing, as is his passion for world history, educational tourism, the great outdoors, playing guitar and tennis.
