Penny Bickle is Senior Lecturer in Archaeology at the University of York and her research focuses on daily routine in the Neolithic period.

[4] She collaborated on the NeoMilk Project which examined the role of cattle and dairy products in Neolithic Europe.

[5] The role of gender in prehistoric societies is one that Bickle has explored, examining the differences between male-sexed and female-sexed bodies in Linearbandkeramik (LBK) culture.

[6] This research includes examining isotopic, archaeological and osteological data from Moravia and western Slovakia.

[13] Post-doctoral, interdisciplinary projects included: part of a team at the Universities of Bristol, Oxford and Durham, she worked on Linearbandkeramik (LBK) culture in Europe;[14] then at the University of Cardiff on The Times of Their Lives, which used Bayesian statistical analysis to create more precise chronologies for the Neolithic.
