Biography
Furey completed her BA and MA at University of Auckland in anthropology (archaeology). In 2005 she was awarded a Doctor of Science by the university for her research in archaeological science (the first and only time that this qualification has been awarded to an archaeologist by the university).[3][4][5]
Research
Furey's research interests are around Māori Material culture, and she is also interested in traditional Māori gardening and the sites and material culture of the first 200 years after Polynesians arrived in Aotearoa.[1]
Furey has three current research projects. One focusses on early Māori ornaments held in museums and private collections in New Zealand. The second is Ahuahu Great Mercury Island Archaeology Project, a partnership between Auckland War Memorial Museum and University of Auckland. The last is a Royal Society Te Apārangi Marsden grant funded project 'Accurately Dating the Māori Past using Marine Shells'.[6][7][1][8][9]
