Fermented Beverages, and Health at the University of Pennsylvania Museum in
Philadelphia, where he is also an Adjunct Professor of Anthropology. Over the past two
decades, he has pioneered the interdisciplinary field of Biomolecular Archaeology. His
laboratory discovered the earliest chemically attested alcoholic beverage in the world (ca. 7000
B.C., from China), as well as the earliest grape wine, barley beer, mead, and fermented chocolate
beverages. He has published three books on ancient alcoholic beverages: Ancient Wine: The
Search for the Origins of Viniculture (Princeton University, 2003/2006; also translated into
French and Italian), Uncorking the Past: The Quest for Wine, Beer, and Other Alcoholic
Beverages (Berkeley: University of California, 2009/2010), and Ancient Brews Rediscovered and
Re-Created (New York: WW Norton, 2017), together with numerous articles (see
