She took up a lecturer position at the University of Newcastle, which allowed her to organise a MSc curriculum in Geoarchaeology and direct the Wolfson Archaeology Laboratory. In 2013 she became a Research Fellow at the University of Edinburgh, until 2015. Since her PhD, Shillito has worked as a Research Associate in Archaeological Chemistry at the University of York between 20 and again at the University of Reading between 20. Alongside this PhD project, her job as a Research Assistant working in Geoarchaeology focused in particular on using FT-IR and other methods for studying residues from soil samples for analysis of organic lipids. Results from this PhD research were published in various papers and a book in 2011. Subsequently, she took on a PhD at the same university dealing with the geoarchaeological analysis of middens from Çatalhöyük in Turkey, which she completed in 2008. She completed a MSc in geoarchaeology at the University of Reading in 2004.
Shillito started her education in archaeology at the University of Oxford, where she earned a BA (Hons) in geography. Her work includes the Neolithic settlements of Çatalhöyük in Turkey and Ness of Brodgar and Durrington Walls in Britain, but also Crusader castles and medieval settlements in Poland and the Baltic and in the Near East.Īdditionally, she is editor of The Archaeological Journal, assistant-editor of the journal Landscape Research, member of AHRC Peer Review College and member of the UKRI Future Leadership Fellows PRC. Her practical work focuses on using soil micromorphology, phytolith analysis and geochemistry in order to understand human behaviour and landscape change. Lisa-Marie Shillito is a British archaeologist and senior lecturer in landscape archaeology as well as director of the Wolfson Archaeology Laboratory and Earthslides at Newcastle University.
