The material remains of the past include not just ‘material culture’ like monuments and pottery but also biological remains such as bones, seeds, soils, and ancient DNA. Archaeology is the study of things abandoned, discarded or buried by past generations, and as all human societies leave material traces of their passing, archaeology uses these to address what it means to be human over the full four million years of human history and with a global perspective. Though usually fragmentary and affected by many biases of survival, the archaeological record bears witness to the entirety of the human past at local, national, and international scales, from the actions of individuals to the great revolutions of human prehistory and history.

A fundamental tool has been the creation of a searchable database of the portable finds (at the moment, a unique resource) classified as Aegean, Egyptian, Aegeanising, Egyptianising, etc. In addition, the Avaris frescoes and the Aegean processional scenes in Thebes were examined in detail. Two approaches were applied to this evidence of Aegean-Egyptian interactions: World Systems Theory, applied here consistently and in depth (as opposed to earlier, broader discussions of Eastern Mediterranean interactions) and, for the first time in this field, Game Theory.
