Christina Skelton
Geosciences, Plan II, College of Natural Sciences
Christina Skelton was nominated by Professor Thomas Palaima for a research paper that brought together her interests in Biology and Classics, “Methods of Using Phylogenetic Systematics to Reconstruct the History of the Linear B Script”. By adapting phylogenetic methods to a very different kind of evolution, that of an evolving script, Christina has taken a brilliant step forward toward the solution of several hitherto intractable problems in Mycenaean Greek studies.
