Tova Kadish studies the historical archaeology of North America. After completing her BA in Anthropology at the University of Chicago, she received an MPhil in Archaeology from the University of Cambridge. Her thesis focused on the material construction of family and community in a colonial-era Native American and European site on Cape Cod. Her current research interests center on the domestic consumption of everyday objects and on the effects of mass-production. She previously worked as an archaeology intern at the Museum of the City of New York. Before coming to the BGC, she worked for several years as a contract archaeologist on sites throughout New York state.
