He has worked in both field and lab settings as part of cultural resources management teams and in academic research. His field experience ranges from near-surface shallow geophysics, magnetic gradiometry, electrical resistance, ground-penetrating radar, and other methods all the way to landscape surveying and excavation. In his laboratory experience, Mr. Filoromo specializes in the archaeometric analysis (pXRF, LA-ICP-MS) of different historic cultural materials such as glass beads and ceramics. Mr. Filoromo received is MA in Anthropology from the University of Alabama, where he conducted a multi-method geophysical survey at a potential early-contact era site in central Alabama.
