ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, PERSONNEL, PUBLICATIONS...............................71 iii THE INSTITUTE OF CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY MISSION The Institute of Classical Archaeology (ICA) is an Organized Research Unit of the University of Texas at Austin. In order to study, document, and preserve sites, monuments, and artifacts of past life for present and future generations, we conduct ar- chaeological fieldwork and training in ancient Greek rural ter- ritories on the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. We engage in interdisciplinary research and publication and provide technical assistance and expertise for cultural heritage management. RESEARCH FOCUS ICA’s research focuses primarily on the chorai—or agricultural territories—that surrounded and supported ancient Greek co- lonial cities. Our two primary sites of research are the chora of Metaponto on the southern coast of Italy and the chora of Chersonesos on the northern coast of the Black Sea in Crimea, Ukraine. Both settings offer remarkably well-preserved ancient rural landscapes, once densely occupied by farmers and still con- taining abundant evidence of their homes, burial grounds, and places of worship. Because their locations were strategically important, they also contain archaeological remains from the Roman through Byzantine eras. Through its research, ICA con- tributes to a fuller understanding of the settlement, economy, and culture of this previously neglected rural dimension of early western civilization. Metaponto and Chersonesos provide a unique chance to compare rural chorai at opposite ends of the colonial Greek world, as well as a valuable opportunity to train students, foster exchanges, and generate international collabo- ration and good will. ADJUNCT ORGANIZATIONS The Center for the Study of Ancient Territories (U.S.A.), Pidtrymka Chersonesu (Ukraine), and the Centro di Agroarche- ologia Pantanello (Italy) are nonprofit organizations founded to support the mission and goals of ICA. Their special focus is on expanding international cooperation for ICA’s projects and ensuring cultural awareness and compliance with local laws. iv Plate 1.

Conclusion Glossary BibliographyUNESCO – EOLSS Biographical Sketch SAMPLE CHAPTERS Summary Texts have been used in archaeological research since the inception of the discipline. The first archaeological explorations took place in circum-Mediterranean lands at a time when the tradition of classical scholarship was strong and where there were numerous texts, such as those of ancient geographers and historians, that could be consulted in order to identify and date ancient sites and monuments. ©Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS) ARCHAEOLOGY – Vol. I - Text-Aided Archaeology - Nancy C. Wilkie With the development of culture history as an approach to the study of the past during the nineteenth century, the use of texts in archaeological research became even more important, as archaeologists strove to define the ethnic groups responsible for the production of the artifacts that they were collecting and classifying.

  • Monuments, Materiality, and Meaning in the Classical Archaeology of Anatolia
    MONUMENTS, MATERIALITY, AND MEANING IN THE CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF ANATOLIA by Daniel David Shoup A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Art and Archaeology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Elaine K. Gazda, Co-Chair Professor John F. Cherry, Co-Chair, Brown University Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Christopher John Ratté Professor Norman Yoffee Acknowledgments Athena may have sprung from Zeus’ brow alone, but dissertations never have a solitary birth: especially this one, which is largely made up of the voices of others. I have been fortunate to have the support of many friends, colleagues, and mentors, whose ideas and suggestions have fundamentally shaped this work. I would also like to thank the dozens of people who agreed to be interviewed, whose ideas and voices animate this text and the sites where they work. I offer this dissertation in hope that it contributes, in some small way, to a bright future for archaeology in Turkey. My committee members have been unstinting in their support of what has proved to be an unconventional project. John Cherry’s able teaching and broad perspective on archaeology formed the matrix in which the ideas for this dissertation grew; Elaine Gazda’s support, guidance, and advocacy of the project was indispensible to its completion. Norman Yoffee provided ideas and support from the first draft of a very different prospectus – including very necessary encouragement to go out on a limb. Chris Ratté has been a generous host at the site of Aphrodisias and helpful commentator during the writing process.

  • Inter-University Master's Degree in Classical Archaeology
    Study Plan AY 2020/21 Inter-University Master’s Degree in Classical Archaeology In English Language Class LM-2 Master’s Degree in Archaeology DEGREE REGULATIONS UnitelmaSapienza.it Study Plan AY 2020/21 Foreword The inter-university Master’s Degree in Classical Archaeology issues a joint degree between Sapienza University of Rome, one of the oldest universities in Italy and worldwide, with a secular leading role in Classics and archaeological studies, and UnitelmaSapienza University of Rome, its online university, which has been a flagship of excellence in Italian distance learning for over ten years. The Master is an online program that aims to provide an in-depth training in the field of classical archaeology, completing theoretical training with one or more apprenticeships in Rome or other archaeological sites to be agreed upon with the course board directors. The didactic methodology combines both traditional (historical-archaeological, philological-linguistic, artistic knowledge) and innovative resources applying the most evolved methods addressed to the knowledge of the material culture. The program aims to improve the archaeological and historical skills of second level graduates. Graduates can aspire to be future researchers with solid theoretical and practical training in archaeological disciplines within European and Middle-Eastern territories. The acquired knowledge and competencies will allow the graduates to be employed as professional archaeologists or cultural experts in a wide range of potential institutions, such as those connected to cultural heritage management, protection and valorisation, e.g. museums, archaeological sites, local authorities managing cultural projects; public administrations; universities and other academic and research entities; archaeological excavations associations or cooperatives; organisations working in the field of tourism, history, architecture, art, etc.; entities engaged in the promotion of archaeological heritages at national or inter-national level.

  • INTRODUCTION to CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY Spring 2018 Location; Time (Twice a Week/75 Mins)
    INTRODUCTION TO CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY Spring 2018 Location; Time (twice a week/75 mins) Instructor: Dr. Bice Peruzzi, Office: xxx. Office phone: xxx Email: xxx (expect a response within 24 hours) Office hours: xxx; (or by appointment) COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course is an introductory survey of the archaeology, architecture and material culture of the Mediterranean world from the Bronze Age throughout the transformation of the Roman Empire following the reign of Constantine. While we consider chronological developments, we will also place Greek and Roman artistic production into its social and cultural settings. Along the way we will think about approaches and methodologies for the study of Classical Art, and how these may tell us more about ourselves than the ancient Greeks and Romans. CORE LEARNING GOALS: This course is certified for the following learning goals: HST/SCLh: Understand the bases and development of human and societal endeavors across time and place. HSTk: Explain the development of some aspect of a society or culture over time, including the history of ideas or history of science. AHp: Analyze arts and/or literatures in themselves and in relation to specific histories, values, languages, cultures, and technologies. COURSE LEARNING GOALS: At the end of this course, the successful student will be able: To describe the main artistic contributions of the Ancient Greeks and Roman, and to explain their significance; To identify the broad historical periods of Ancient Greece and Rome and to place major events and artistic personalities within those periods; To learn about the daily lives of the ancient Greeks and Romans, including women, children, and slaves; To distinguish primary source evidence and secondary source and to acknowledge strengths and weaknesses in each.
