He was a graduate immature human at the Penn Museum Corinth Computer Project as well as a Colburn Fellow at the American School of Classical Studies inwards Athens. He initially honed his interdisciplinary approach to the classical globe past times characterizing a perfumed crude workshop at the Minoan harbor town of Mochlos, dissertation enquiry he completed every bit an telephone commutation scholar at the Stanford University Department of Classics as well as the initiatory Archaeological Institute of America Pomerance Fellow. Koh is currently a senior enquiry immature human at the MIT Center for Materials Research inwards Archaeology & Ethnology as well as a enquiry associate at the Harvard Semitic Museum. He founded the ARCHEM Project inwards 2003 as well as straight off serves every bit the co-editor-in-chief of its interdisciplinary as well as collaborative archaeometric database (http://openarchem.org).
Koh utilizes both traditional as well as scientific methods to improve sympathize cross-cultural interactions as well as complex societies through their organic commodities as well as branded goods. This approach integrates text, fabric culture, as well as fabric science, illuminating previously invisible information sets to address questions of civilization as well as society. This blended approach offers exciting novel ways forrad for Classics as well as archeology past times introducing processes, social groups, as well as practices absent from other records. This interdisciplinary, longue durée approach underlies his monograph, Luxury Trade as well as Social Complexity inwards the Ancient Mediterranean World, which is nether contract amongst Cambridge University Press.
