  • Monash University Wellington Road Clayton, VIC, 3800 Australia (map)

Three Studies by Emerging Scholars

Talks by Tracy Lakin (Monash University), Alexis Green (Monash University), and Basil Biar (Monash University) 

Three talks will explore the relationship between the spaces of ancient Egypt and the people who inhabited, created, and experienced them. Hear three emerging scholars share their research on the human experience of Amarna’s busy streets and neighbourhoods, the residents of Amarna’s emotional and social attachment to their houses, and the changing nature of domestic religious practice in the multicultural milieu of Roman Egypt.

This event is organised by the Egyptology Society of Victoria, in conjunction with the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at Monash University.
