Archaeology and its legacies \u2013 From Egypt to Georgia
Advertisement
As part of National Archaeology Week, join Monash University’s Jessie Birkett-Rees, Andrew Connor and Anna Stevens as they explore the history of archaeological excavations in Egypt and Georgia. From the large-scale clearance of pharaoh Akhenaten’s city in the early 1900s, to thoughts and actions centred on medieval fortresses in Georgia, to the ways scholars have used archaeology and papyrology to reconstruct a looted Ptolemaic burial – we’ll examine some of the legacies of past fieldwork, and how these shape research today.
This event is co-hosted by the Egyptology Society of Victoria and the Monash Centre for Ancient Cultures.
When: Wednesday 22 May, 7:00–8:30pm
Where: Monash University, Clayton. Lecture theatre E7, 14 Alliance Lane (our regular venue)
This event is free and open to all. We hope to see you there!
