David Wilson has a degree in Latin Language and Literature from the University of California at Santa Barbara, which he followed with four years of graduate work in Classics and Classical Archeology at UCLA. From 1969 to 1972 he resided for part of each year in Greece, where he was Assistant Director and occasional staff architect of the UCLA Isthmia Excavations. From 1973 to 1984 he was Assistant Director the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae (www.tlg.uci.edu), a project which created one of the first data bases from a defined literary and linguistic corpus. For several years he wrote and edited a community newspaper in Orange County, California. He is now employed in government and community relations for a large development and property management firm. He has a longstanding interest in genetics and linguistics because of their power to illuminate the prehistoric archeological record.
