स्थानबारे जानकारी

The study of the material culture of the Classical lands reaches back to the very beginnings of the University of Michigan. When its Ann Arbor campus opened in 1841, the faculty included just two professors (one in Greek and Latin Languages, the other in Mathematics), and the earliest freshman curriculum included courses in Greek and Roman antiquities. Classical Studies at Michigan has in fact always been understood, and taught, as an entirety, embracing not only Classical languages, literature, and culture, but material culture too: archaeology, art history, numismatics, epigraphy, papyrology, etc. Of great importance in this respect was Francis Kelsey (Professor of Latin, 1889-1927), whose tireless acquisition of antiquities provided the core of the University’s extraordinary papyrological and archaeological holdings: the museum building in which IPCAA now has its home appropriately bears his name. The University of Michigan offers an Interdepartmental Ph.D. Program in Classical Art and Archaeology [IPCAA] which derives special strength from an innovative and inclusive approach to the study of antiquity. Broadly speaking, archaeology is the study of past societies and cultures by means of a synthetic analysis of disparate types of data, available via systematic fieldwork, or through the study of extant documents and monuments. Depending upon the area and period under scrutiny, and upon the kinds of issues being addressed, these data may include textual sources (inscriptions, papyri, historical narratives, etc.), as well as the evidence of material culture, which itself can range from coins to tombs, seals, elite art and architecture, folk art, domestic architecture, utilitarian objects (such as lamps), settlement patterns, religious structures, and much more besides.
