Roman and Late Antique artefacts from Egypt: understanding society and culture
This project is the first in-depth investigation into Roman and Late Antique Egyptian society and culture using everyday artefacts as principal source material. By doing so, the researchers hope to expand our knowledge of social experience and relations during this period. Although UK museums possess large numbers of artefacts from Roman and Late Antique Egypt (30BC to AD700), they have often gone unstudied because of scholars’ focus on the Egyptian pharaohs. The team will concentrate on the collection at University College London’s Petrie Museum, which contains more than 8,000 objects from the period. By inspecting the artefacts’ features, the materials from which they are made, and physical evidence showing their daily use, the team will explore aspects of social behaviour and experience and shed new light on daily life in Roman and Late Antique Egypt. Use of associated texts will provide supplementary information. In particular, the researchers are interested in how experiences may have differed among people with varying status in society. Wear and repair of artefacts will also give insight into personal and sentimental attachment that owners may have had to them.
