The German Archaeological Institute, Rome Department and the Royal Netherlands Institute in Rome organize an international workshop on “Landscape and Memory in Ancient Latium” from the 4th of May to the 13th of May 2013. The workshop is open for early stage researchers of Archaeology, Ancient History, Classics or related disciplines. It comprises two seminar days in Rome as well as excursions to numerous sites in Lazio.
The main theme of the workshop is „Landscape and Memory”. By discussing various approaches and methods pertinent to this theme, the final aim of the workshop is to come to an improved understanding of Latium Vetus and Adiectum. The chronological frame reaches from the Archaic period to the Imperial Age.
The workshop is aimed at 10-12 early stage researchers and graduate students of Ancient History, Archaeology, Classics and related fields, whose research concerns ancient Latium and issues relevant to the overall thematic framework.
The workshop consists of two parts: Two days are dedicated to a seminar in Rome, where the participants present and discuss their own research with experts in Latium studies and the other participants. On the remaining five days archaeological sites and monuments in Latium will be visited, where particular research questions can be discussed in detail. Researchers working on the respective sites will present their latest research results. The final selection of sites to be visited will take into consideration the projects and research interests of the selected participants.
Knowledge of English and Italian is required for participation in this workshop. Some funding is available to support expenses for travel and accommodation. Transportation for the excursions and entrance fees will be covered.
