[Akash Srinivas]

Hello all!! I am Akash. I’m from Bangalore, and I currently work as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Centre for Interdisciplinary Archaeological Research, Ashoka University. I am a prehistoric archaeologist who works on stone tools, and how we can reconstruct ancient human behaviour from studying these stone tools. I also co-host a podcast (Chippin’ Away), discussing various aspects of South Asia’s past, its history, archaeology, and anthropology and trying to integrate it with the broader, global discourse of our past. We recently finished a series on the History of Medicine (supported by the India Foundation for the Arts). We cover many themes and topics, including some related to art and art history. So do check it out on any streaming platform if you are interested!!
Looking forward to the fun sessions scheduled, as well as getting to know all of you! 🙂
