Water Management in the Mediterranean during the 1st Millennium BC
IIIe symposium international HYDRΩMED
The aim of the meeting is to compare the different modes of adaptation of the Ancient Mediterranean populations to the environmental resources, especially their hydric resources. In a climate marked by unequal distribution of water, the ancient societies, whether Phoenician-Punic, Greek or Etruscan, responded in different ways to the various situations, let alone the hydric crises which may have affected them. The meeting will associate systemic theoretical reflections as well as case studies on ancient sites, to outline the mutations and the permanencies, the possible technological transfers from one society to another. Here, as in other fields of human activity, we shall query the existence of an ancient Mediterranean koine around the knowledge and the technical practices, around the cultural and cultural traditions. The chronology considered runs from the 8th to the 1st century BC, i.e. before the diffusion of the Roman models and techniques.

Religions in crisis, the crises of religions
Comparative approaches to religion, philosophy and ancient representations
Dans le cadre de ce colloque, nous souhaitons explorer la question de la crise en lien avec le monde religieux, au sens large. Il s’agit notamment d’investiguer la notion même de crise : à partir de quand y a-t-il crise ? La crise se définit-elle essentiellement par ses conséquences ou davantage par les réponses (ou leur absence) apportées pour lui faire face ? La caractérisation des causes (ponctuelles / récurrentes ; externes / internes…) des crises ouvre également un vaste champ de réflexion. Plus précisément, la thématique s’oriente vers la crise « religieuse ». Le spectre d’investigation est volontairement large afin de toucher tant les religions, au sens traditionnel du terme, que les philosophies et les systèmes de représentations.
