Katerina Harvati is a Greek paleoanthropologist and expert in early human evolution. She specializes in the broad application of 3-D geometric morphometric and virtual anthropology methods to paleoanthropology. Since 2009, she has been full professor and director of Paleoanthropology at the University of Tübingen, Germany.[1]

Life

Harvati is a graduate of Columbia University, New York, where she earned a B.A. in Anthropology 1994 (summa cum laude).[2] Four years later, she received her master’s degree in Anthropology at Hunter College, City University of New York. After having been awarded with her Ph.D. at CUNY in 2001[3] she worked as an assistant professor at New York University. From 2004 to 2009, she was senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology[4] in Leipzig, Germany. In 2005, she became also adjunct associate professor at the City University of New York Graduate School[5] and in 2009 she was appointed full professor at the University of Tübingen and director of Paleoanthropology. In 2010, she was elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science for her contributions to Paleoanthropology.[6] Harvati is married to the Greek biotechnology executive Elias Papatheodorou.[7] They have two children.

Research

Harvati´s research focuses on primate and human evolution as well as on evolutionary theory, with emphasis on the paleobiology of Pleistocene humans and modern human origins. She has conducted fieldwork in different parts of Europe and Africa and contributed largely to the understanding of the relationship of morphological variability to population history and the environment. As part of international teams of scientists, Harvati showed in 2007 that modern humans left Africa between 65,000 and 25,000 years ago, a publication that TIME magazine ranked as one out of Top Ten discoveries of the year.[8] In 2011, she identified the earliest modern human remains known in Europe from Grotta del Cavallo, Southern Italy (Benazzi et al 2011); and in 2017 demonstrated that modern humans evolved much earlier than previously thought, around 300,000 years ago in Morocco (Hublin et al. 2017). Harvati led recent breakthroughs in the understanding of Neanderthal behaviour: her team’s research refuted long held assumptions about increased levels of violence and traumatic injuries relative to modern humans (Beier et al. 2018) and demonstrated that Neanderthals regularly performed precise manipulative activities, contrary to previous beliefs (Karakostis et al. 2018). Finally, Harvati's work has spearheaded paleolithic and paleoanthropological research in South-East Europe (Harvati and Roskandic 2016, Tourloukis and Harvati 2018). She has received two grants of the European Research Council, one ERC Starting Grant in 2011, and one ERC Consolidator Grant in 2016.[9] In addition, she directs a Centre for Advanced Studies on linguistic, cultural and biological trajectories of the human past since 2015.[10]
