Learning Objectives
The course will introduce the study of the classical archaeology by discussing the principal sources, methods, and analytical, descriptive and interpretative processes of the discipline.
Program
Classical archaeology may interrelate its studies with a conspicuous series of literary sources. Through a guided reading of Pausania’s Periegesis (books V-VI), the course aims to exemplify the complicated relationship between archaeological evidences and literary tradition, that requires a critical awareness in approaching them. Moreover will be considered questions concerning the stratigraphic excavation method and the digital classification process of archaeological contexts, monuments, finds (included the ICCD systems).
