Connectivity – Exchange – Conflict: New Archaeological and Historical Perspectives on the Central and Western Mediterranean of the 2nd and 1st Centuries BCESep 12Freitag, 12. September 2025 20:24
Wir fragen in unserer Tagung nach den treibenden Kräften, die hinter diesen gesellschaftlichen und politischen Entwicklungen standen: Waren es enger werdende Netzwerke in einem expansiven Imperium Romanum, oder war es persönliche, vom Militär befeuerte Mobilität in einer stark von kriegerischen Auseinandersetzungen geprägten Zeit?

DIVINATION AND AUTHORITY IN GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITYJul 14Montag, 14. Juli 2025 18:19We are pleased to share the programme for the upcoming international conference, co-organized by Leiden University (Institute for History / Leiden Center for the Study of Ancient Religions) and the University of Potsdam (Department of History / Chair of Ancient History).DIVINATION AND AUTHORITY IN GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITYWHERE: Wissenschaftsetage of the Bildungsforum Potsdam (Am Kanal 47, 14467 Potsdam, Germany) and ONLINEWHEN: 22—24 October 2025Organizers: Kim Beerden (Leiden), Jens Fischer (Potsdam) and Rafał Matuszewski (Leiden)>>> To attend both in person or via Zoom please contact Ms. Annette Woywod (

However, it is only in recent years that one fundamental aspect concerning the significance of divination has begun to receive attention: the nature, meaning, and role of authority.In the view of contemporaries, ancient divination was a form of communication with the divine sphere. It allowed individuals, regardless of their social status, to ascertain the opinion of the supernatural regarding a given situation and, in turn, to communicate this information. As such, divination played a crucial role in Greek and Roman societies, shaping both private life and political affairs. Despite its centrality, divination was neither a fixed and coherent nor a universally valid or universally accepted system but rather a contested space where various specialists and techniques competed for legitimacy. At the heart of this competition was the issue of authority—how it was constructed, recognized, and maintained. While previous scholarship has explored specific divinatory practices and their political uses, the broader relationship between divination and authority remains insufficiently examined. This conference, therefore, seeks to explore both the authority of divination (how divination as a system gained credibility) and the authority in divination (how individual diviners established and maintained their status).In what ways was the authority of the supernatural conveyed through divinatory practices used in different contexts of the Greek and Roman world? How did ancient societies negotiate which individuals could claim divinatory authority? How did divination reinforce the authority of the powerful? How did divination empower marginalized individuals? What role did divinatory rituals, objects, and performances play in asserting authority? What theoretical concepts and methodological approaches enable a better understanding of historical developments related to these questions? By addressing these and similar issues, this conference will contribute to broader discussions on religious expertise, materiality, and ancient Mediterranean belief systems, and ultimately place the still-young study of the significance of authority in the field of divination on a new foundation.PROGRAMME:Wednesday, 22 October 202513:00 – 13:15: Welcome and opening remarks13:15 – 14:00: Tanja Scheer (Universität Göttingen) – Gods and Goddesses, Sibyls and Seers: Gendered Authority in Greek Divination?14:00 – 14:45: Marie-Laurence Haack (Université de Picardie Jules Verne) – Children’s Authority in Roman Religion14:45 – 15:15: Coffee Break15:15 – 16:00: Yann Berthelet (Université de Liège) – Pullarii: Divinatory Experts Lacking Authority?16:00 – 16:45: Rafał Matuszewski (Universiteit Leiden) – Greek Oneiromancy and Authority16:45 – 17:15: Coffee Break17:15 – 18:30: Keynote: Kai Trampedach (Universität Heidelberg) – Does Authority Matter?
