Hammond was educated at Peterhouse, Cambridge. He held academic positions at Cambridge (1967–75), Bradford (1975–77), and Rutgers universities (1977–88), before becoming a professor in the Archaeology Department at Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) in 1988.[2] Now emeritus at Boston, he is currently a Senior Fellow of the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research at Cambridge.[3][4]

As well as specialising in the archaeology of Maya lowland sites in Belize, he has written on the emergence of complex societies in general, and on the history of archaeology.

He has served on the editorial boards of Ancient Mesoamerica and the Journal of Field Archaeology. He has also been the archaeology correspondent for The Times newspaper in London.
