    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.).

    Conference, symposium - Prehistory and Antiquity

    Textiles and Gender: Production to wardrobe from the Orient to the Mediterranean in Antiquity

    Textiles and gender intertwine on many levels, from the transformation of raw materials into fabric at one end, to dress and garments, and the construction of identity at the other. The conference will examine the gender division of work in the production of textiles, as well as attitudes to dress and gender across the Near East and Mediterranean culture in antiquity (c. 3000 BCE-300CE), tracing both cross-cultural and culturally specific associations.

    Ships of the desert

    The presence and uses of the camel (Camelus dromedarius) between the Tigris and the Nile in the middle 1st millenium

    Le dromadaire ou chameau à une bosse (Camelus dromedarius) n’est pas une espèce autochtone en Égypte, ni même au Proche-Orient ou dans la péninsule Arabique. L’animal, surnommé « vaisseau des déserts », est pourtant particulièrement bien adapté aux environnements arides et semi-arides de ces régions. Il a des utilisations multiples (transport de charge, transport de personnes, labour, course, consommation humaine etc.), mais son élevage est délicat et requiert un savoir-faire précis. Il a donc semblé opportun de réunir pour la première fois des philologues, des archéologues et des archéozoologues, spécialistes de leur discipline, pour confronter les informations et tenter de mieux cerner l’histoire du Camelus dromedarius, de son élevage et de ses utilisations dans les déserts d’Égypte, du Proche-Orient et de la péninsule Arabique, du milieu du Ier millénaire av. J.-C. à l’époque romaine.

    Conference, symposium - History

    "Masters" and "natives": digging others' pasts

    Ce colloque analysera les relations entre les archéologues occidentaux et la population locale, puis les archéologues occidentaux et ceux nationaux, afin de comprendre quelle place a été accordée aux acteurs locaux au cours des réflexions archéologiques et de l’écriture de l’histoire. Nous analyserons cette problématique sur la base de la documentation provenant de différentes régions comme l’Asie centrale post-soviétique, la Russie, l’Afghanistan, la Grèce, l’Inde, l’Iran, le Pakistan, le Moyen-Orient, le Népal ; cette documentation sera abordée à travers divers supports et médias comme le cinéma, la littérature, les ouvrages scientifiques et les vécus des archéologues œuvrant sur les terrains extra-européens. Nos réflexions seront menées dans la « longue durée », afin d'enquêter sur les tenants et les aboutissants des relations entre les idéologies coloniales et les imaginaires nationaux des pays ex-coloniaux.
