José Manuel Costa-García (Universidade de Santiago de Compostela) josemanuel.costa@usc.es
PhD in Archeology (2013) and BA in History (2006) from the University of Santiago de Compostela. My main research goal is the study of Roman military presence by combining methodologies and techniques coming from Archeology, Classics-Ancient History, and Remote Sensing-GIS. I am a founding member of the research collective Romanarmy.eu (2015-present) focused on the study of the interaction between the Roman Army and indigenous societies in NW Iberia. I am also a former member of the archaeological research team excavating the Roman fort of A Cidadela (Sobrado dos Monxes, A Coruña) (2007-2016). At the present time, I develop my post-doc "On war, on peace: re-evaluating the impact of the Roman military presence in Britain, the Lower Rhine and NW Iberia through Archaeology", granted by the Galician Autonomous Government (ED481B 2016/117-0). After two long periods at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (The Netherlands) and Newcastle University (UK), the project takes place at the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain).
