    Research interests

    Skumsnes' research has focused on social history, through the lens of family and gender, with New Kingdom Egypt (1500-1000 BCE) as a speciality. During more recent years, his attention has shifted more towards the concept of the body, exploring the interdisciplinary potential between Egyptology and other disciplines, between past empirical material and present theories of the body, and sex/gender. He is concerned with relational encounters, between spatially and temporally fractal positions, perspectives and records, which includes the significance of material, genre, purpose and context of specific records, the selection of records, as well as the questions and perspectives of the interpreter.
