Des morts privés de funérailles de la Préhistoire à nos jours
Ces deux journées d’études se proposent d’entamer une réflexion diachronique et interdisciplinaire (associant l’archéologie, l’anthropologie sociale et l’histoire) afin d’aborder, d’une part, la diversité des motivations qui conduisent à la privation intentionnelle de funérailles et, d’autre part, le cheminement intellectuel qui permet à partir des seules données archéologiques d’attester de l’absence de traitement funéraire. Nous souhaitons ainsi consacrer une première journée aux cas de privation de funérailles qui questionnent le statut des individus (condamné à mort, vaincu des batailles, esclave, personne âgée ou handicapée...), et une seconde aux cas qui questionnent les circonstances ou la cause des décès (malmort, suicide…).

Musicality and politic from antiquity to nowadays
La définition de ce qui est musical ou de ce qui est bruyant peut être conflictuelle et, dès lors, devenir un enjeu politique. Cet enjeu de définition n'est pas intemporel et varie selon les cultures et les sociétés. Cette journée d'étude entend, dans une perspective historique large et une approche transdisciplinaire, interroger la construction de la musicalité et de son usage au sein de la Cité.

Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents
The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 5: Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. This year, it focuses on the human agents in the process of naming the divine, whether they are producers of a discourse on the deities, addressers in a communication with the deities, or even experts in charge of a ritual knowledge. What agency do men and women exercise in the production of a specific denomination of the divine? How can we question their choices, their anchoring in a tradition or their innovation strategies?

Classicamente. Dialoghi Senesi sul Mondo Antico
The junior researchers and PhD students from the Anthropology of the ancient world curriculum of the PhD course in Classics and Archeology are promoting the fourth edition of the seminar cycle Classicamente. Dialoghi Senesi sul Mondo Antico. This year's edition will focus on the varied methodologies and hermeneutical perspectives which represent the scientific guidelines followed by scholars in anthropology of the ancient world ever since its development. It will also focus on those approaches that today contribute to a constant enrichment and renovation of this field of study. Our goal is to offer to all those who take part the chance to present their work, be it the result of long research or elements of a work in progress, in an enviroment open to discussion between different perspectives (anthropological, philological, historical, archeological, semiotic etc.).

Practices, know-how and movements from Protohistory to the 21st century
Numerous hemp kilns abandoned in the countryside, particularly in western France, remind us of the importance of hemp canvas production during modern and contemporary times. Today, our society is re-discovering this plant which appears to be of interest to make agriculture more environment-friendly. Despite this glorious economic past, the history of hemp as a textile crop has yet to be written. To remedy this limitation, an interdisciplinary approach try to write the intertwined history of men and hemp.

The archaeology and anthropology of iron
Ce colloque a pour but de casser le mur érigé entre anthropologie, archéologie et histoire antique autour de la culture du fer. Il fera le point sur l’archéologie du fer dans les pays extra-occidentaux (principalement en Afrique sub-saharienne, mais pas exclusivement) : quelles sont les dernières données scientifiques issues des fouilles archéologiques ou des études de matériel ? qu’apportent les analyses chimiques aux datations et sources géographiques des minerais, mais aussi aux techniques employées pour son raffinage et sa fusion ? quels sont les axes de recherche prioritaires à intensifier ?

Transgressing to better rule: shadows and lights of the power in Antiquity
Open to the whole of the ancient Mediterranean world, this conference is intended to be transdisciplinary. Several approaches can be considered: communications are expected to propose a reflection on forms of power or transgressive acts and to set out their characteristics, as well as their links with the society in which these powers and acts emerge. All types of transgressions can be addressed: social, political, philosophical, religious, literary, linguistic, etc.

Greece(s) - Histoire de l'art journal, no 86
Histoire de l'art, no 86
2021 marks the bicentennial of the Greek uprising which resulted, at the end of a long war, in the country’s independence:Greece was thus born as a modern nation while romanticism, particularly in France, made it one of its favorite themes,carrying out out a vibrant philhellenic movement. The commemoration should not, however, cover up that there were andare other Greeces, from antiquity to our own day. The theme of this issue is also given in the plural since the construction of Greek art in the modern era is but one of the phenomena considered here. It is the plurality of constructions of Greecein art which unifies the collection of studies and essays which we envision.

Actors of the environment : living, exploiting, representing
Sharing our environment is at the heart of many conflicts. Indeed, it’s the subject of multiple ownerships and practices, sometimes competing each other, which testifies the plurality of strategies of its actors in their way of living, exploiting and thinking the environment. In a historical, trans-disciplinary and cultural approach, this workshop aims to deconstruct and to understand the practices, relationships and uses of actors who participate at the ecological structures that make up ancient and contemporary societies.

Crisis and infrastructures: responses to change between materiality and immateriality
A dialogue between Anthropology, Geography and History
The purpose of the conference is to explore the interactions between crised and infrastructures starting from a pivotal question: is it possibile to consider transitional processes as moments of "a transformazion that includes some essential elements of the previous phase?" (Pombeni 2013: 12) Or are they to be intended just as a dramatic interruptions and breaks? PhD Students, Post-Docs and Research Fellows of historical, geographical and anthropological training are invited to partecipate in the construction of a moment of dialogue and excange. The aim is to stimulate an interdisciplinary discussion that will encompass all historiographical epochs, from antiquity to the present day, and question not only the role of infrastructure in the resolution of crises, but also the various implications of critical moments and of their conception.

The ceremonial banquet - between archaeology and ethnology
Pour cette table ronde, nous souhaitons vous convier à un banquet scientifique, afin de nous plonger dans ce sujet particulier que l’on retrouve dans différentes disciplines, mais non de manière exclusive. L’objectif de ces journées est que les participants, auditeurs comme intervenants puissent réfléchir en quoi consiste le festin, dans quelle cosmologie il intervient, par rapport à quelle conception sociale, ceci plus spécifiquement dans des sociétés stratifiées et des religions à sacrifice.

Ancient deviance: the city and the challenge of transgression
Le laboratoire junior TAntALE se propose de poursuivre sa réflexion autour de la notion de transgression dans l'Antiquité en s'appuyant sur le concept sociologique de déviance. Qui sont les outsiders antiques ? Les domaines de la religion, – rites à mystère, superstitions, pratiques déviantes au temps du premier christianisme –, de la sexualité, du genre et des rapports sociaux sont autant de thématiques qui pourront être abordées. Quels sont les mécanismes sociaux, juridiques, moraux mis en œuvre par la communauté pour contrôler les pratiques déviantes et les rejeter aux marges de l'espace politique ? Comment la production textuelle peut-elle représenter un espace réflexif où se rejouent ces dynamiques ? Comprendre les ressorts de la déviance dans l'Antiquité grecque et romaine, sa réalité et sa perception, sera l’enjeu de cette troisième journée d'étude.

Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives
The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 4: Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. By focusing on names, images and narratives, we will look for connections but also discrepancies, in order to highlight, from duly selected cases or files, the specifications of the different languages used to unfold the potentials of the divine names. In the spirit of the MAP project, we will pay special attention to the links that the names, the images and the narratives convey.

Ancient religion in rural settlements
XVIII International ARYS Conference
This conference aims to deconstruct the ideas of rural religion as mechanically reproducing urban rituals and religious hierarchies and of the rural world as a space of cultural and religious resilience against urbanity. Rural areas represented an arena for very situational processes of negotiation between, on the one hand, administrative patterns and related social configurations, and, on the other hand, processes of social conformance to the very characteristics of a local specific rural environment, of adaptation to its peculiar habitus and religious customs, possibly involving gods whose competences directly mirrored a geophysical environment made of mountains, rivers, woods, etc.
