Opening the Ancient World

Theme: Religion, History, and Culture

Sunday August 15th and Monday August 16th, 2021

Digital Hammurabi and Save Ancient Studies Alliance have partnered to create a new type of conference for ALL Ancient Studies scholars. 

Any scholar of the Ancient Mediterranean and Mesopotamia, broadly defined, is welcomed and encouraged to submit an academic paper proposal in the subject areas of Religion, Culture, or History. In addition, all presenters are strongly encouraged to participate in at least one of the two discussion groups, as follows.

The conference will also include two round-table discussions to conclude each day:

- Diversity in Ancient Studies: Problem Solving Through Outreach

- Lateral Thinking: Academic Skill sets in the “Real” World
