Archaeology of Greece 2800-DSGR
The subject of the seminar covers the broadly understood archeology of Greece in the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age, but there are also topics that
go beyond this chronological range, although they must relate to Aegean cultures (such as religious, cultural traditions, memory, etc.). During the MA
seminar, we discuss related to the topic of the master's theses (or annual) prepared by participants: we discuss the thematic scope, instruction,
bibliography, report subsequent readings, and finally present the next parts of the works being prepared. During these presentations, we try to achieve
the required learning outcomes (see below)
