David Garcia-Casas

David Garcia-Casas (PhD 2018, Autonomous University of Barcelona) is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Heritage Sciences (INCIPIT), Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). His research focuses on the origins, development and long-term historical transformations of seasonal pastoralism in mountain landscapes. He combines archaeological methods, ethnographic datasets and geospatial technologies to analyse the cultural and social processes that have shaped rural landscapes over time. He leads archaeological research projects in the Pyrenees and in other mountain ranges in northern Spain, and has also participated in fieldwork and collaborative studies in the Alps.

Guillem Domingo-Ribas (PhD 2025, Newcastle University) is an archaeologist working at the intersection of landscape archaeology, computational modelling and ethnoarchaeology. Having recently obtained his doctoral degree, his research explores how pastoralism and livestock mobility shaped historic landscape formation, integrating archaeological, historical, ecological and ethnographic data with simulation and geospatial analysis. He has conducted fieldwork in Italy and the UK and has extensive experience in early medieval contexts, including co-directing survey and excavation projects in mountain ranges in northern Spain.
