  Peter Bogucki (pronounced bow-good'-ski) is Associate Dean for Undergraduate Affairs at the School of Engineering and Applied Science at Princeton University, where he had previously served as Director of Studies of Forbes College. He received his B.A. (1974) from the University of Pennsylvania and his A.M. (1977) and Ph.D. (1981) in anthropology from Harvard University. Since 1976 he has studied early farming societies in Europe (ca. 6000 - 3000 B.C.), specifically in Poland with excavations at the sites of Brześć Kujawski and Osłonki

His major publications include: 

  • Early Neolithic Subsistence and Settlement in the Polish Lowlands (Oxford: BAR International Series 150, 1982)

Note:  Peter Bogucki's area of scholarly expertise is PREHISTORIC Europe, before A.D. 1 in western Europe and before A.D. 1000 in eastern Europe, and particularly before 2000 B.C.    All inquiries about recent European, world, and Polish history, society, culture, and other topics (e.g. Poland in World War II) should be directed elsewhere.   

Note:  "Bogucki" is a relatively common Polish name.   It is number 386 on the ranked listing of the 20,000 most common Polish surnames and it occurs in all parts of Poland.    Unless you are certain that your Bogucki ancestors emigrated to the United States in the 1890s from an area within 10 miles of 52:26:02N, 17:46:47E, then it is unlikely that you are related to this Peter Bogucki on his Bogucki side.
