| Profile: Utsav has worked on archaeological projects in Belgium, France, Holland, Jordan, and Turkey. He thinks he's an Ultimate Frisbee team all by himself, playing all positions well. Sometimes, he even plays for an actual team, Rage in Philadelphia. He once raced to the top of a gigantic hill in Jordan and back down again, all in 45 minutes, just to take a photo of a site for his project director. Of course, we noticed that even Utsav was a bit winded that time around. He's thinking of doing his Ph.D. thesis on the Middle Paleolithic of Egypt. | ||
