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.).

The inter-African journal in archaeology, Egyptology, ancient history, medieval history and the history of precolonial Africa
La revue Antiquitas bientôt en ligne, verra le jour au premier semestre de l’an 2021 grâce à l’appui de nombreuses universités africaines comme l’université Omar Bongo (Libreville/Gabon), l’université Alassane Ouattara (Bouaké/Côte d’Ivoire), l’université Marien N’Gouabi (Brazzaville/Congo), l’université de Lomé (Togo), l’université de Yaoundé (Cameroun), l’université de N’Gaoundéré (Cameroun), l’université d’Abomey-Calavi (Benin) et l’université Félix Houphouët-Boigny (Abidjan/Côte d’Ivoire). C’est donc une revue de rang international qui entend valoriser la recherche scientifique, donner plus de visibilité aux productions des enseignants-chercheurs, des chercheurs et autres experts, et offrir à un plus large public des supports de connaissance plus accessibles. Pour toutes ces raisons, elle s’est dotée d’un conseil scientifique et administratif regroupant des enseignants chevronnés qui ont fait et continuent de faire leur preuve sur le continent et au-delà.

Photographic archaeology - from excavation to the writing of history
De la fouille à l'écriture de l'Histoire
Cette année, le cycle de conférences dédiée à l’archéologie est pensé en lien avec la photographie et l’exposition de Josef Koudelka, Ruines qui se tient à la Bibliothèque nationale de France du 21 avril au 19 juillet 2020. Ce thème permet à l’artiste de dialoguer avec Alain Schnapp, auteur de Ruines : essai de perspective comparée (2015) et d’une série de conférences Musée du Louvre / ENS « Une histoire universelle des ruines » en 2014. Depuis 30 ans, Josef Koudelka photographie des sites archéologiques du bassin méditerranéen dont certains ont disparu. D’un autre point de vue, la photographie est devenue un partenaire indispensable des fouilles, accompagnant l’archéologue depuis le repérage du site, la documentation du travail de terrain, la révélation d’éléments invisibles à l’œil nu jusqu’à la publication des vues des zones explorées et détruites au courant de la fouille. Au cours de six conférences, des chercheurs et des archéologues témoignent de la pratique photographique sur le terrain et mettent en évidence ce qu’elle apporte à la reconstitution historique.

The domestic economy in the sciences of Antiquity
Self-sufficiency practices and opening up markets

Cette journée d'étude entend interroger la manière dont les antiquisants travaillant sur différentes aires chronologiques et culturelles mobilisent les sources qui sont à leur disposition pour envisager l’orientation des activités domestiques vers l’intérieur ou l’extérieur de la maisonnée.

Oriental monarchisms from the Nile to the Mediterranean
Organising monastic life in East Africa from late Antiquity to the Middle Ages (Egypt, Nubia, Ethiopia, 4th-16th century)
Ce séminaire organisé par l’École française de Rome et le Pontificio Istituto Orientale depuis 2018 est dédié à l’étude du monachisme en Afrique orientale de l’Antiquité tardive à la fin du Moyen Âge. Cette deuxième session est consacrée à la question de l’organisation de la vie monastique en Égypte, Nubie et Éthiopie et privilégie les études de cas. Les rencontres mensuelles entendent mieux identifier et saisir les normes et les modalités pratiques qui régissent l’administration, la gestion, le contrôle et l’aménagement des institutions monastiques. Une attention particulière sera accordée à la vie quotidienne des moines et des moniales en Afrique orientale dont certains aspects demeurent largement méconnus.

Summer School - Prehistory and Antiquity
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.

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.
