2A. AIMS, OBJECTIVES Aims:

The course aims to: a) Present a synthetic introduction of the archaeology and material culture of the Greek world from the Bronze Age to the Roman period. b) Develop students' knowledge of the ecology and topography of the Greek world, the history of its exploration and contemporary approaches to the archaeological record. c) Help develop students' understanding of the changing nature of Greek society from the Late Bronze Age to Later Antiquity, including art and archaeology of religion, burial practices, political structure and broader Mediterranean links. d) Equip students with basic skills to assess archaeological evidence and its relationship with other sources of information with respect to the interpretation of the practices of everyday life, including the provision of relevant "hands-on" use of archaeological material.

Objectives: At the end of the course students will: a) Understand the basic aspects of the history of the Greek world, e.g. topography, chronology, historical events, and its physical remains; b) Be familiar with the history of the subject and modern approaches in the field and study of the Greek world; c) Have acquired basic skills in identifying source material and bibliography.

Outcomes: On successful completion of the course students should be able to demonstrate: a) Knowledge of the principal approaches to Greek archaeology as well as the main sites and corpora of materials. b) Ability in reading, critically evaluation of alternative interpretations and presentation of reasoned conclusions. c) Recognition of the linkages between data, methods and ideas. d) Skill at using archaeological data on its own or in conjunction with other types of evidence to construct sound interpretations. e) Presenting information and ideas clearly in written form.

It was also a key period for the formation of Homeric epic, but how much earlier and later are some of the latter’s elements, and how do we integrate evidence derived from archaeology and oral poetry?

15/11/19 11. The Greeks and their neighbours, (BLH) The Greeks traded, travelled and settled all over the Mediterranean. This lecture introduces the Greek world outside the Aegean, and the non-Greek world that the Greeks encountered and interacted with. The importance of links beyond the Aegean and how archaeology can shed light on those links will be explored. It explores in more depth the Greek encounter with non-Greeks and Greek constructions of them as ‘other’ (barbarians and orientals). The important debate on the role of the ‘other’ in shaping Hellenism and of outside influence in the formation of Greek culture will be explored through archaeological evidence

Note that some of the policies and procedures will be different depending on your status (e.g. undergraduate, postgraduate taught, affiliate, graduate diploma, intercollegiate, interdepartmental). If in doubt, please consult your module co-ordinator.

GRANTING OF EXTENSIONS: Note that there are strict UCL-wide regulations with regard to the granting of extensions for coursework. Note that Module Coordinators are not permitted to grant extensions. All requests for extensions must be submitted on a the appropriate UCL form, together with supporting documentation, via Judy Medrington’s office and will then be referred on for consideration. Please be aware that the grounds that are acceptable are limited. Those with long-term difficulties should contact UCL Student Support and Wellbeing to make special arrangements. Please see the IoA Student Administration section of Moodle https://moodle.ucl.ac.uk/ for further information.
