I received my Ph.D. in Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh, with sojourns at Charles University, Prague and the (then) University of Leningrad, USSR. I came to the US as a _drained brain_, hired by Harvard University who did not give me tenure. But I found tenure and happiness at the University of California at Berkeley where I am currently Professor of Anthropology.
