Tenure-Track Professor in Maritime Archaeology
Kristin Ilves is Tenure-Track Professor of Maritime Archaeology. She studied archaeology in Estonia and Sweden (PhD, Uppsala University, 2012) and joined Helsinki in 2018. Her expertise lies in maritime cultural landscapes, with a particular interest in the construction of island identities through time. She combines theoretical insights with empirical research and draws on interdisciplinary perspectives, including history, environmental studies and scientific approaches within archaeology, exploring topics such as Nordic Late Iron Age and Early Medieval settlement and mobility in the Baltic Sea region. Through her teaching and research, she promotes multidisciplinary and inclusive approaches in maritime archaeology.
