Femke Martens has studied archaeology at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (1996) and conservation of ancient monuments and landscapes at the Henry van de Velde Instituut in Antwerp (1997). She finished a Ph.D. (2004) focusing on the urban development of Sagalassos from the Hellenistic period to the mid-seventh century A.D. She has been participating in the excavations at Sagalassos since 1994 and supervised the intensive urban survey (1999-2005), reconstructing the functional organization and chronological evolution of the urban area's occupation. Her postdoctoral research focuses on the urban infrastructure (network of streets and water network), for which a programme of test soundings and geophysical survey is being carried out.
