The Archaeology of the Athenian Acropolis

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

The course focuses on one of the most iconic monuments of the Greek world - the Athenian Acropolis. The monument will be examined as a total site - that is, in its topographical, historical, social, and spatial contexts. Framed within a chronological arc from the Bronze Age to Late Antiquity, the emphasis will be on the dynamic engagement with this site as a location for dedicatory interests, political and civic concerns, and regional and international contexts.
