Content
The Archaeology Minor examines the material culture of the premodern Mediterranean and Europe, from Bronze Age trade to the Greek, Roman, and Carolingian empires. You'll study artifacts ranging from everyday tools to monumental architecture, exploring how material culture informs historical understanding. Core questions include: How do we study material remains? And how can archaeology illuminate the past? You'll connect objects to texts, linking trade, religion, and politics to artifacts and architecture.
