    Summer School - Prehistory and Antiquity

    Mapping Ancient Gods

    ERC Advanced Grant MAP project (Mapping Ancient Polytheisms. Cult Epithets as an Interface between Religious Systems and Human Agency)

    The ERC Advanced Grant MAP project (Mapping Ancient Polytheisms. Cult Epithets as an Interface between Religious Systems and Human Agency; 741182; http://map-polytheisms.huma-num.fr1) works on the naming systems for the divine in the Greek and Western Semitic worlds, from 1000 BCE to 400 CE and views them as testimonies to the way in which divine powers are constructed, arranged and involved within ritual. The analysis deals both with the structural aspects of the religious systems and with their contextual appropriation by social participants. Considered to be elements of a complex language, the onomastic channels are related to the gods, therefore providing access to a mapping process of the divine, to its ways of representation and to the communication strategies between men and gods.Within this framework, the MAP Team proposes a Summer School in collaboration with the French Research Centre in Jerusalem (http://www.crfj.org) which covers the project’s themes and tools.

    Seminar - Prehistory and Antiquity

    L’habitation, l’abri de l’homme à travers les âges

    Zaman İçinde İnsanoğlunun Barınağı Olarak Konut

    Nous reprenons comme l’an dernier notre cycle qui a pour objet une question qui a intéressé les érudits depuis Vitruve en passant par J.-J.Rousseau : l’habitation. Plusieurs séances sont prévues entre octobre et mars. Ce thème sera présenté à partir des données archéologiques du Néolithique au Moyen Âge. Nous avons pris le parti de focaliser sur les sites de la périphérie pour enrichir les comparaisons avec l’Anatolie.
