Program Content: Each online lesson will last 60 minutes and be accompanied by PowerPoint presentations. At the end of each lesson, there will be a 20-minute Q&A session. The program begins with a comprehensive presentation on urbanism in the Hellenistic and Roman worlds. It delves into buildings depicted on coins or inscriptions that mention structures, and examines the extraction of stones used to build ancient structures from quarries. The plans, functions of ancient buildings are examined as time allows, and the final online presentation focuses on the sculpture that enriches these structures.

Learning Outcomes The general goal is to present topics such as the understanding of urbanism in the Hellenistic and Roman worlds, the extraction of building stones from quarries, the depiction of buildings on coins, and the information that inscriptions provide about structures to the participants, all conveyed by expert academics. Participants will have the opportunity to hear the latest research on urbanism and buildings from experts in the field. A Certificate of Participation will be awarded to those who successfully complete the program. This event, especially aimed at introducing ancient structures in depth, is expected to contribute to student participants’ future professional careers and, of course, to their general knowledge.

Requirements Participants are expected to attend all classes. A Certificate of Participation can only be granted to those who attend 75% of the lessons; those who do not meet this requirement cannot request a certificate.
