Jeremy Simmons is a historian of the wider ancient world—what Greco-Roman geographers thought of as the oikoumene. While at IAS, he will be working on a book about the consumption of goods traded across the Indian Ocean in antiquity, addressing representative Mediterranean and Indian commodities in their new socio-cultural contexts.
