About this course

In MA Classical Archaeology and Greek, you will combine the study of the material record of the Graeco-Roman world with the study of the ancient Greek language.

The study of the literature, languages and material culture of the classical civilisations requires the development of a wide range of disciplinary skills.

You will gain a valuable dual perspective on the ancient world by combining:

* language expertise, literary analysis, and understanding of society through its literature

* the intellectual and visual skills used by archaeologists and art historians

Study of both written and material evidence fosters an understanding of societies and people who lived long ago but are highly significant for the modern world.
