MARC ANDREW BEHEREC

My name is Marc Beherec (or more correctly Béhérec). I am a professional archaeologist, an amateur writer, and a practising Catholic. These are the three aspects of my personality that will be most reflected in these pages.

I am an M. A. Candidate in Anthropology at University of California at San Diego's. I also work as a teaching assistant in Revelle College's Humanities Writing Program at UCSD. I am an occasional worker with the Jabal Hamrat Fidan Archaeological Project.

I am a former archaeological technician. Most recently, I worked for Southwest Texas State University's Center for Archaeological Studies, digging holes at Camp Swift Texas Army National Guard Base. Before that, I worked on a survey of the proposed I-69 corridor in Mississippi for PBS&J's Austin office. Prior to that, I worked an eleven-month stint with the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas at Austin. We excavated at the Gault Site, a multi-component Clovis occupation site in Central Texas. In 2000 I worked with Foth and Van Dyke's Minneapolis office.

I'm a 2000 graduate (BA, Anthropology) of the University of Texas at Austin. In 1999 I attended an archaeological field school with the University of California at San Diego's Jabal Hamrat Fidan Archaeological Project.

I was born in 1979 on a United States Air Force base in East Anglia, England. However, I have lived in Central Texas most of my life. I am the second of four children. You may also visit my older brother Patrick's website or my younger brother Sean's website.

I'm a practising Roman Catholic. I'm a member of Our Mother of Confidence Parish in the Diocese of San Diego, California.

Some of my favourite writers include H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, W. B. Seabrook, W. B. Yeats, and T. E. D. Klein.

Writings of Marc A. Beherec. I grew up to believe that writing was important, and that everyone should want to write something worth reading. I have come to understand that I will never be one of the great writers, but I do write from time to time, and hopefully some people will enjoy some of what I have written. This page has links to stories, articles, and poems, especially those I wrote for State of unBeing and Nameless and Damned, as well as short explanations of some of my influences, inspirations, and intentions.

Archaeological fieldwork in the Middle East. Links to the webpages of active digs in the Middle East, most of which take students and volunteers.
