  Religion of the Ancient Near East: New Developments (RANEND)

  Among the Near Eastern research programs of interest to Ghent, ULille and UCLouvain universities, the study of religion in the Near East has been chosen as a central theme of a new cooperation project, as several teachers-researchers, doctoral and post-doctoral students are already involved in this field. in 2018, we will start with a masterclass on Hittite religion with Dr Alice Mouton (CNRS - UMR 8167), a well-known scholar of the Hittite world and a specialist of religion in ancient Anatolia, first step to renew the approaches and to develop a reflection of the importance of this subject in ancien Near Eastern societies. Other conferences on the theme of religion in the Ancient Near East and Egypt will be delivered on the same day by other scholars from England, France and Belgium.
