The Phoenicians Strike Back! Revisit the Phoenicians in Iberia and celebrate ISAC’s participation in the Málaga project as we welcome Carolina López-Ruiz, Professor of Ancient Mediterranean Religions and Mythology in the Divinity School and the Department of Classics. López-Ruiz’s research centers around comparative mythology and cultural exchange in the ancient Mediterranean, exploring the idea that mythological narratives and religious practices act as loci for cultural exchange and provide mechanisms for groups in close contact to negotiate tensions, adopt to change, and bolster their resilience.

Registration is for in person attendance only. This lecture will stream live exclusively for ISAC Members and will be posted to ISAC YouTube channel in the future.
