AIAC – Associazione Internazionale di Archeologia Classica

The AIAC incontri are roving monthly seminar series organised by the Associazione Internazionale di Archeologia Classica and held across Rome’s international academies and universities. The incontri provide a chance to share work in progress, to get fresh feedback on ideas, and to meet young archaeologists working on Classical (and Classical-adjacent) themes.

This incontro has a theme of Use and re-use in Christian Rome / Uso e riuso nella Roma cristiana, for which we have two speakers approaching material transformations and new uses of space between late antiquity and the middle ages. Talks are in English and Italian.

Irene Selsvold – Det norske institutt i Roma

Fragmenting the Gods: the materiality of Christian reuse in Late Antiquity

Crystel Mamazza – Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana

Il destino delle catacombe romane nel Medioevo: frequentazione cultuale, riuso e abbandono

Modera Domenico Benoci – Pontificio ateneo Regina Apostolorum

All welcome.
