Archäologie ist eine Ding- und Bildwissenschaft. Das Sehen und der physische Kontakt mit den Gegenständen bilden ihre unverzichtbare Grundlage. Objektsammlungen waren daher ein wichtiger Faktor auf dem Weg der archäologischen Studien zu einem eigenständigen Universitätsfach. Die Ausstellung „Antike im Blick“ beleuchtet die Pionierrolle Göttingens in diesem Prozess und die 260-jährige Geschichte des archäologischen Sammelns anhand markanter Episoden und Exponate. Konzeption und Durchführung der Ausstellung beruhen wesentlich auf den Ergebnissen einer museumspraktischen Übung und auf der aktiven Mitarbeit engagierter Studierender.
Zu sehen sind neben ausgewählten Stücken aus der Sammlung der Gipsabgüsse vor allem Objekte aus der Archäologischen Originalsammlung und dem Münzkabinett, die bisher nicht öffentlich zugänglich waren. Dazu gehören ein frisch restaurierter ägyptischer Mumiensarg, griechische Vasen, etruskische Bronzen, Funde aus Heinrich Schliemanns Troja-Grabung sowie hervorragende Kopien des berühmten Hildesheimer Silberfunds. Erstmals wird eine computeranimierte Rekonstruktion von Karl Otfried Müllers nicht mehr existierendem Antikensaal in der Paulinerkirche gezeigt.

Im Jahr 2011 wurde in der römischen Kolonie Scupi, in der Nähe der nordmazedonischen Hauptstadt Skopje, ein Massengrab mit etwa 200 römischen Soldaten entdeckt, die durch Enthauptung starben. Diese außergewöhnliche Entdeckung wirft Fragen auf: Wer waren diese Männer und warum wurden sie getötet?
Während wir das Römische Reich zumeist durch seine kulturellen Errungenschaften wahrnehmen, zeigt dieser Fund eine brutale Seite der römischen Geschichte. Ein Expertenteam hat viele Jahre daran gearbeitet, die genauen Umstände dieses historischen Geschehens zu klären. Im Archäologischen Museum Frankfurt werden nun die Ergebnisse dieser Forschungen gezeigt.

Postdoctoral Fellowships in Critical Classical StudiesDez 09Montag, 09. Dezember 2024 15:55
The Department of Classics at Brown University
invites applications for two (2) two-year, non-renewable
Postdoctoral Fellowships in Critical Classical Studies
to begin July 1, 2025. We seek junior colleagues with terminal
degrees *(either Ph.D. or MFA) *whose work directly addresses the
classicization of the Ancient Greeks and Romans; critiques the structures
of power, exclusion, erasure, and violence that have scaffolded past and
present models of Ancient Greek and Roman Studies (i.e. Classics); and/or
speculates about alternative models to studying these ancient cultures and
others. Successful applicants will be appointed as Postdoctoral Research
Associates.
The Fellowship is *open to areas of research and creative practice not
traditionally housed within Ancient Greek and Roman Studies *(e.g. art,
film, creative writing, translation studies, political science, language
pedagogy, higher education studies, public humanities, museum studies,
indigenous studies, decolonial studies, performance or performance history,
music) *and to more traditional subfields *(e.g. art history, literary
studies/philology, archaeology, ancient history, philosophy, reception
studies). Ideal candidates position their work's intervention in relation
to other disciplines, fields, institutions, and/or industries. They
prioritize making contributions to academic, artistic, and/or activist
communities. The work can take the form of traditional scholarship (e.g.
monographs and articles)* or be pedagogical, public-facing, creative, or
otherwise trans/inter/extra-disciplinary*.
The fellows selected in this competition will join fellows
<https://www.brown.edu/academics/classics/people/scholars-fellows> already
in residence and form a community committed to refining methodologies well
established at Brown and in the field as well as to co-developing new
approaches to Ancient Greek and Roman cultures.
Brown University seeks to recruit and retain a diverse workforce to
maintain the excellence of the University, and to offer our students richly
varied disciplines, perspectives, viewpoints, and ways of knowing,
learning, and creating. Therefore, the Department of Classics particularly
welcomes applications from members of groups that have been minoritized and
underrepresented in academia. A required application form asks every
applicant to summarize their approach to and experience in creating
equitable, diverse, and inclusive communities. This history might include
academic teaching, mentoring, and service, activism, or other forms of
community engagement and leadership.
In lieu of formal teaching responsibilities, fellows will be given the time
and support necessary to complete their projects during the fellowship
term and to share those projects with communities on and off-campus. Each
fellow should expect to host one departmental event (e.g. lecture,
symposium, performance, screening) and one informal event (e.g. workshop,
interview, open rehearsal, table read, write-on-site) that prioritize
graduate students in the Department of Classics each academic year. They
will also participate in regular cohort-building and mentoring activities.
Each fellow will earn a salary of $65,000 in year 1 and $70,000 in year 2.
In addition to a full benefits package, each fellow will receive a research
fund of $10,000 and access to a shared office space. Fellows are expected
to be in residence for the full term of the fellowship and, if applicable,
will receive a $3,000 moving allowance to ease the burden of relocation.

The study of ancient society has traditionally focused on the urban elites or the male citizens, and has neglected the women, the children or adolescents, the old people, the disabled or sick, the slaves and criminals, the foreign residents. This network aims to address this problem. While the situation is rapidly changing, with these groups receiving increasing attention, these discussions remain restricted to historical or literary evidence. However, in recent years, mortuary archaeology (the study of mortuary practices) and bioarchaeology (the study of human remains, and associated analytical techniques such as ancient DNA and biodistance analysis to establish genetic relations, or isotopic analyses to reconstruct diet or provenance) produce fascinating insights into the life and death of precisely these neglected categories. These new insights have not been incorporated so far into historical reflection on these ‘silenced groups’. Classicists and ancient historians make little use of (bio)archaeological information, while osteoarchaeologists are not always familiar with the complexities of the ancient world, or ignore the potential of texts, epigraphy, or imagery. As a result, the different disciplines hardly interact with each other, just at the moment when new questions are being asked and new methods introduced.
We want to make use of this network within the framework of CRASIS, as an interdisciplinary research institute, to bring together scholars from across the disciplines studying the ancient world, bridging the gap between these diverse disciplines and between the humanities and the sciences. Doing this through a CRASIS network also enables us to maximise the interdisciplinarity of our approach to marginalised peoples by bringing together a wide range of disciplines interested in ancient societies. Coming from the archaeological perspective, we acknowledge the importance of the growth of archaeological science, but we want to anchor methodological innovation in theoretical reflection and historical knowledge. Coming from the historical/textual perspective we are interested to learn how new archaeological methods can challenge, confirm or fill in the gaps in the discourses we find in ancient texts, both inscribed and literary/historiographical. Moreover, from a reception theories and cultural analysis point of view, we are also interested in seeing how and whether the new facts archaeology can obtain about silenced and marginalized groups will enter the public consciousness through popular science and pop culture. We can think for instance of the spate of popular books on the lives of women that is currently appearing (The Missing Thread, Dunn; Femina, Ramirez; Amazons, Mayor), that use archaeological findings to complete the lacunae in the historical record. Herein lies the strength of situating our research in the very well documented ancient Greco-Roman world where optimal integration of written, material, iconographic and bioarchaeological evidence can be achieved, and including reception scholars as well.
Meeting plans
A series of four meetings to discuss a selection of specific topics within the theme involving both the CRASIS network and external participants. We would like to focus on the status quo of research to-date on these topics, gathering bibliography and available evidence, and discuss how to progress in approaching future study of marginalised peoples and silenced groups in the ancient world. The meetings will take the format of a combination of talks, round-table discussions, student poster sessions, and collections tours. We would like to hear about the current research of those in the network relating to the theme but will also include a specifically student-oriented aspect to each meeting.
The four meeting topics:
1) Women and children
2) The elderly, infirm and disabled
3) The enslaved and criminals
4) Foreigners
We plan to include student activities into these meetings including (but not limited to):
- Student posters on a topic linked to the meeting’s theme.
- For our graduate students, to act as respondents to papers.
- A tour of the Human Osteoarchaeology Laboratory and Mediterranean Archaeology collections.
- Integrate student presentations in the new BA Roman slavery course.

Uni Göttingen: Ausstellung "Antike im Blick"Nov 21Donnerstag, 21. November 2024 09:37
260 JAHRE ARCHÄOLOGISCHE SAMMLUNGEN AN DER UNIVERSITÄT GÖTTINGEN
Seit 1912 sind alle drei Sammlungen – Gipsabgüsse, antike Originalwerke und das Münzkabinett – in dem eigens für sie errichteten Gebäude am Nikolausberger Weg beheimatet.
Die Ausstellung endete offiziell am 7.7.2024, kann aber in leicht veränderter Form weiter besichtigt werden.
Die Universität Göttingen verfügt über außergewöhnlich traditionsreiche und vielfältige archäologische Sammlungen. Wesentlich früher als an allen anderen Hochschulen wurde an der Georgia Augusta Archäologie gelehrt und mit dem Ankauf von plastischen Nachbildungen antiker Kunstwerke begonnen. Zu verdanken ist dies Christian Gottlob Heyne (1729-1812), der 1763 nach Göttingen kam und noch im gleichen Jahr das erste archäologische Studienobjekt erwarb. 1765 legte er den Grundstock für die Sammlung der Gipsabgüsse antiker Skulpturen, heute eine der größten Einrichtungen ihrer Art weltweit. 1767 hielt Heyne die erste Archäologie-Vorlesung, die an einer Universität angeboten wurde. 1773 begründete er das Münzkabinett der Universität.
Karl Otfried Müller (1797-1840) schuf 1823 einen eigenen Antikensaal in der Paulinerkirche, in dem er alle archäologischen Lehrmittel zusammenfasste. Hier fand auch seine Vorlesung statt, aus der 1830 das epochemachende „Handbuch der Archäologie der Kunst“ hervorging. Auf einer Reise nach Italien und Griechenland erwarb Müller erstmals gezielt originale Antiken für die Universität. Seine Nachfolger bauten auf dieser Grundlage eine ansehnliche Sammlung auf, die einen guten Überblick über die verschiedenen Gattungen des Kunsthandwerks der Griechen, Etrusker und Römer gibt, aber auch ägyptische und altorientalische Werke enthält. -
