Jingbo Li is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the American School of Prehistoric Research, Harvard University. She received her PhD in Chinese Archaeology from Stanford University in 2025. Her research examines how foodways, especially alcohol production and consumption, interacted with identity, ritual, and politics in Neolithic and Bronze Age China, combining archaeobotany, residue chemistry, and stable isotope analysis with anthropological approaches to reconstruct ancient diets, fermentation practices, and craft organization. She has conducted fieldwork at major Bronze Age sites including Zhouyuan and Yinxu, and co-directs the Yangguanzhai Archaeological Field School in Shaanxi.
