Long Epigraphic Friday 2023
Since 2013, the “Epigraphic Friday”, organized by Professor Angelos Chaniotis, gives the participants the opportunity to talk about Greek and Latin inscriptions (sometimes ancient inscriptions in other languages, too), by presenting new finds, discussing recently edited inscriptions or old finds, or addressing questions concerning Greek and Latin inscriptions. The pandemic has transformed the “Epigraphic Friday” into a hybrid event that lasts for two days, in order to accommodate participants in different time zones. The event will take place on Friday, March 3, 9:30 am-3:00 pm and Saturday, March 4, 10:00 am -3:00 pm in the West Building Seminar Room with physical presence and online. Saturday, March 4, 2023, the event will be entirely online.
For participation with physical presence registration is necessary. Please contact achaniotis@ias.edu.
