Conference

On 27/28 November, the Institute of Ancient History at the Department of Ancient Civilizations (University of Basel) is hosting this international conference, linking the discipline of Ancient History with the Environmental and Climate Sciences.

Organized by Prof. Dr. Sabine R. Huebner, the conference bridges the traditional gap between the Humanities and the Natural Sciences: Researchers from Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Great Britain and the United States will illustrate with interdisciplinary contributions, to what extent the different sciences are capable of assisting and complementing each other in the exploration of past times, regions and cultures.

Climatologist Jürg Luterbacher (Justus-Liebig-University Giessen) will round off our first conference day with a keynote lecture:

"Reconstructing Climate back to Greek and Roman Times: Challenges, Opportunities, and Uncertainties"
November 27, 2018, 18:30
