Caption

Princeton University's John Haldon, project director of the Avkat Archaeological Project in Turkey and director of the Climate Change and History Research Initiative, stands in the remains of a Byzantine citadel on a Turkish hillside. Haldon created CCHRI to bring historians into dialogue with climate change researchers and archaeologists, to bring nuance to the discussion of how societies react to environmental stress.
