Durham Collections Fellowships Durham Collections Fellowships for the academic year 2025-2026Jul 02Mittwoch, 02. Juli 2025 13:02
Durham University is delighted to invite applications from researchers for Visiting Fellowships of one month in duration.
The aim of the Durham Collections Fellowships is to enable and foster research across the historic collections of Durham, notably Archives and Special Collections at Palace Green Library, the Oriental Museum, the library and archives of Ushaw College (the former Roman Catholic seminary just outside the city), the Cathedral Library and the archives of Durham Priory and Cathedral.
The resources available to scholars include not only libraries and archives, but also collections of visual and material culture, and architectural assets. The purpose of the Visiting Fellowships is to support research into these globally significant collections.
The Barker Visiting Fellowships are intended to support research into any of the collections held in Durham and there are a number of Lendrum Priory Library Fellowships available specifically to support work on the surviving contents of Durham Cathedral's medieval priory library. This collection is currently the focus of a large-scale digitisation project, Durham Priory Library Recreated [http://www.durhampriory.ac.uk<http://www.durhampriory.ac.uk]www.durhampriory.ac.uk<http://www.durhampriory.ac.uk>.
The Lendrum Fellowships are intended to support research into any of the collections but there is a preference for applicants wishing to use the historic book collections of Durham. This is interpreted broadly to include consultation of individual books, study of specific collections, research into the material forms of books, histories of book circulation and collecting, plus consideration of the readers of books. We welcome applications from both academic and practitioner researchers at all stages in their career.
The Lord Crewe's Charity Fellowships are open to any applicant wishing to work on the Bamburgh Library Collection. The remit is wide, from those wishing to research it as a collection, to those planning to consult an individual item, and also includes the material culture of the books.
Fellows will be encouraged to work collaboratively with academic subject specialists, librarians, archivists and curators to realise the collections' research potential, and to develop innovative research agendas. They will also be encouraged to participate in the life of the University, particularly its broad range of seminar series.
Applications
Applicants should submit a short CV together with a summary of the project and materials they propose to work on, and the expected publications or other outcomes (the summary should be maximum two sides of A4). Applications should demonstrate a serious research interest that focuses on primary source material within the collections held at Durham. Applicants who plan to collaborate with Durham academic or collections staff are especially welcome and should mention this in their application. There is no need to identify a particular fellowship scheme when applying; the selection committee will decide which scheme is most appropriate, though applicants can highlight one if they wish.
Applicants must consult with the relevant collections staff to ensure that the materials they wish to work with are available at the times of their visit. This is particularly important in the case of the Oriental Museum, the Cathedral Library and Ushaw Library, all of which have limited opening hours.
This is especially important for applicants:
*
whose research projects may require access to a large number of objects, books or
archives
*
who are interested in the materiality of collections or items
*
who wish to be considered for the Lendrum Fellowships
*
who wish to be considered for the Lord Crewe's Charity Fellowships.
For these areas of research, we strongly recommend that applicants consult relevant collections staff to discuss the practicalities of their research project and their proposed dates of research before applying. If this has not been possible, we may need to ask applicants for further information before assessing their application.
There will be five fellowship intakes throughout the academic year, lasting for four weeks each:
October = 13 October - 7 November 2025
November = 17 November - 12 December 2025
February = 23 February - 20 March 2026
May = 27 April - 22 May 2026
June = 1 June - 26 June 2026
Applicants should indicate their preferred dates. They should also indicate to which university department(s) and/or research centres their research most relates. Applications should be submitted by noon on Wednesday 3 September 2025. We shall aim to notify successful candidates by mid-September 2025.
Fellows will be granted an honorarium of £2,000 per month towards their transport and subsistence costs. A small number of PhD bursaries may be available to the value of £600. Please note that fellows will be expected to arrange their own travel and accommodation.
Those who have previously held fellowships are eligible to apply again after three years have elapsed since their previous award. Please note that the maximum times an individual can be awarded a fellowship is on three occasions, or the equivalent of three months, over a period of 10 years.
Recipients of all fellowships are expected to be in continuous residence in Durham and to participate in and make a contribution to the intellectual life of the University. This may include an informal talk, other event or blog post about their research, as part of museum or special collections engagement programmes.

Two postdoctoral fellowships (fixed-term contract) in the research project Locally Crafted Empires (LoCiS), School of Culture and Society, Aarhus UniversityJul 02Mittwoch, 02. Juli 2025 13:00
Aarhus University
Deadline 1 Sep 23:59 CEST
Expected start 1 Jan
* School of Culture and Society - Classical Archaeology, subject Jens Chr. Skous Vej 5 8000 Aarhus C
* Fixed term full-time position 1 Jan 2026 - 31 Dec 2026 ID: 18517
The research project Locally Crafted Empires: Intersecting identities under Imperial rule in Western Asia as expressed in local portrait cultures (1st c. BCE-5th c. CE) (LoCiS) headed by Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art, Rubina Raja, at the School of Culture and Society, Faculty of Arts, Aarhus University (AU), is looking to recruit two full-time (37 hours/week) postdoctoral researchers. The postdoctoral researchers will be working on specific project tasks set out by the project director.
The positions are for 1 year with the possibility of prolongation for another 2 years. Both positions will commence on 1 January 2026.
About the project
The LoCiS project investigates the rich but understudied local portrait cultures of ancient Western Asia with the aim of determining how they reflect local and regional entanglements with and responses to different imperial hegemonies. LoCiS aims to reveal new knowledge about intersecting identities on an individual, local and regional level through a long durée perspective with a global historical outlook. The thousands of surviving portraits have not been studied comprehensively - neither diachronically nor in contexts or in cross-regional perspectives. LoCiS aims at offering unprecedented insights into the multilayered narratives of the varied individual experiences in antiquity.
The postdocs will work closely with Professor Rubina Raja and other project members. Tasks include work on the project database and catalogues, producing a monograph, co- and single-authored articles and contributions, organizing conferences, workshops and guest lectures, undertaking research travel. The postdocs will specifically undertake research on locally produced portraits from the region of West Asia from 100 BCE - 500 CE. The more narrowly defined region will be subject to definition together with the project director at the time of a potential interview for the position. Applicants should therefore specify in their application the region(s) within the study area where they believe their strongest competences lie.
We are looking for candidates who are specialised in Classical Archaeology with a focus on Greece and/or the eastern Roman provinces and/or Near Eastern archaeology in the period between 100 BCE - 500 CE and who have a solid research profile and demonstrates wide-ranging knowledge of the archaeology and history of West Asia - here defined that the region from and including Egypt to Anatolia and from the Tigris to the Mediterranean with a focus on visual culture.
Qualifications
Applicants must hold a PhD degree in Classical Archaeology or closely related disciplines and be able to demonstrate expertise in ancient visual culture.
Applicants must also be able to document:
* Research and knowledge in archaeology on topics relevant to the outlined project.
* Relevant academic publications.
* The ability to work critically with archaeological and ancient historical sources.
* A methodological and structured approach to work.
* Good organisation skills and excellent attention to detail.
* Flexibility and the ability to prioritise.
* Excellent time-management skills and ability to meet deadlines.
* Excellent interpersonal and collaborative skills.
* The ability to speak and write professional/academic English.
* The ability to read German, French and Italian.
Please submit up to two publications for assessment. Note that only publications that are actually submitted with the application will be assessed; a list of publications is not sufficient. Applications that are not accompanied by publications will not be assessed.
The university is keen for its staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified applicants, regardless of their personal background. Members of the academic staff at the School of Culture and Society are expected to contribute to a vibrant, dynamic and collegial work environment.
Further information
The application must be uploaded in English.

War in the Ancient World - International Conference 2026Jun 30Montag, 30. Juni 2025 15:47
(WAWIC 2026)
June 9–11, 2026 (Winnipeg and Madrid)
We are pleased to announce the upcoming War in the Ancient World International Conference 2026 (WAWIC 2026), an annual event that brings together researchers from around the globe to exchange ideas and present new research on ancient warfare. We invite submissions from scholars working on all aspects of ancient warfare and military history. Contributions from archaeological, philological, and historical perspectives are welcome. We are particularly interested in topics related to the Greco-Roman world, the ancient Near East, ancient Egypt, and neighboring cultures. The conference is open to graduate students, early-career researchers, and established scholars alike. The 2026 conference will take place in person at two locations: in Winnipeg for participants based in North America and in Madrid for those based in Europe. Selected panels will be connected via Zoom to enable transcontinental interaction and discussion.
We welcome proposals in three categories: (a) individual papers, (b) project presentations, and (c) thematic panels.
(a) Individual papers may address any aspect of ancient warfare and will be assigned to appropriate panels by the organizers. Presentations should not exceed 20 minutes and will be followed by a 10-minute discussion.
(b) Project presentations, aimed primarily at master’s students, doctoral candidates, and other early-career scholars, should take the form of a brief 10-minute talk. These will be followed by a 20-minute workshop-style discussion focused on open questions and constructive feedback.
(c) Thematic panels should have a clear focus on a specific topic related to ancient warfare. Panels hosted at one of the conference locations may include 4 to 8 related presentations. We especially encourage the submission of transcontinental panels, which should consist of 3 to 6 coordinated presentations. If you would like to organize a thematic panel, please contact
Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein. with a brief outline of your proposed panel (150–300 words) BEFORE October 30, 2025. A complete list of speakers, contributors, and abstracts is only due by January 15, 2026.If necessary, priority will be given to contributions from authors with an ongoing or well-established line of research on ancient warfare. Panel organizers are likewise encouraged to apply this criterion when selecting participants for their proposals.
In-person participation at one of the two venues is expected, unless compelling personal circumstances or intercontinental travel make this impossible. Students and early-career scholars as well as unemployed researchers will be able to apply for up to 150 € of their travel expenses reimbursed.
For individual papers and project presentations, please send a 300-word abstract and a brief biographical note to

Pressemitteilung des Deutschen Archäologen Verbandes zur Novellierung des KulturgutschutzgesetzesJun 27Freitag, 27. Juni 2025 09:56
Antikenhandel im Wandel
Vor Novellierung: Deutscher Archäologen-Verband begrüßt Schutz archäologischer Objekte im neuen Kulturgutschutzgesetz
Vor der Abstimmung im Bundestag über die Novellierung des Kulturgutschutzgesetzes diskutierte der Deutsche Archäologen-Verband auf seiner Jahrestagung in Würzburg Herausforderungen und Perspektiven im Umgang mit Antikenhandel und Kulturerbe.
Am 26. Juni 2025 entscheidet der Bundestag über eine Änderung des Kulturgutschutzgesetzes (KGSG), das den Handel mit Kulturgütern künftig vereinfachen und transparenter gestalten soll. Der Deutsche Archäologen-Verband (DArV) begrüßt in diesem Zusammenhang ausdrücklich, dass archäologische Kulturgüter weiterhin unter besondere Schutzbestimmungen fallen sollen. Im Vorfeld der parlamentarischen Entscheidung widmete sich die Jahrestagung des Verbands vom 20. bis 22. Juni in Würzburg unter dem Titel „Cultural Heritage – Eigentumsfragen – Best practice“ der aktuellen Debatte um den Antikenhandel und seine gesellschaftliche Verantwortung.
Angesichts nachlassenden Interesses unter den Erben früherer Sammlerinnen und Sammler und aufgrund der verstärkten öffentlichen Debatte über Rückgaben werden insbesondere Museen als Schnittstellen zwischen Forschung und Öffentlichkeit zuletzt immer wieder mit Angeboten konfrontiert, private Antikensammlungen zu übernehmen. Deren nicht selten ungeklärte oder problematische Provenienzen erschweren den Umgang mit solchen Angeboten: Sie auszustellen würde bedeuten, ihnen Legitimation zu verleihen, sie abzulehnen ginge mit dem Risiko des Verlusts dieser Stücke einher. Museen könnten allenfalls, so ein in Würzburg diskutierter Vorschlag, als „sicherer Hafen“ agieren und, entsprechende Kapazitäten vorausgesetzt, Objekte unklarer Herkunft vorübergehend verwahren bis rechtmäßige Eigentümer ermittelt und Rückgaben in die Wege geleitet werden können. Hierfür gilt es, Leitlinien zu entwickeln.
Gleichzeitig betont der DArV die Notwendigkeit noch früher anzusetzen: Raubgrabungen und illegale Ausfuhr von Kulturgut müssen effektiver verhindert werden. Dabei geht es nicht darum, den legalen Besitz oder Handel grundsätzlich zu kriminalisieren, sondern um eine konsequente Dokumentations- und Nachweispflicht für alle Beteiligten. Das Kulturgutschutzgesetz von 2016 hat hier bereits wichtige Impulse gesetzt. Die nun geplanten Änderungen sollen bürokratische Hürden abbauen und mehr Transparenz schaffen. Ausdrücklich begrüßt der DArV, dass archäologische Kulturgüter wegen ihrer besonderen Schutzbedürftigkeit von einer geplanten Lockerung der Sorgfaltspflichten, etwa zum Erwerb, zu Ein- und Ausfuhr, ausgenommen sind.
Die Änderungen sollen im Sommer 2025 in Kraft treten.
Der Deutsche Archäologen-Verband wurde 1970 in Bonn gegründet und vertritt heute etwa 1.150 Mitglieder aus allen archäologischen Disziplinen. Als disziplinenübergreifender Berufsverband setzt er sich für die beruflichen, wissenschaftlichen und sozialen Interessen von Archäologinnen und Archäologen in Deutschland ein. Während seiner Jahrestagung diskutiert er regelmäßig aktuelle Themen der archäologischen Wissenschaften, Museen und des Kulturerbes.

Athens: Visiting Fellowships at the British School at AthensJun 20Freitag, 20. Juni 2025 12:18
Visiting Fellowships at the British School at Athens are offered for periods of between four and twelve weeks for research in any branch of the arts or social sciences related to Greece and related to any chronological period from the Palaeolithic to the present.
The BSA is a world-renowned institution with its Library, Archives, Fitch Laboratory in Athens and the Knossos Research Centre. Fellows will become members of the BSA and will benefit from all it has to offer in terms of research facilities and accommodation in the centre of Athens. They will have access to the network of research libraries in Athens as well as the ability to undertake museum or site studies (with prior consultation). Athens has a lively intellectual life and Fellows will have the opportunity to participate in the stimulating academic life of the BSA and wider Athenian community.
Fellowships are open to established scholars at any career stage beyond PhD level, normally in full-time employment at a university, museum, or comparable institution, and are ideally suited to those who have been granted a period of sabbatical leave during the relevant academic year. Preference may be given to applicants from UK HEIs.
Fellowships are non-stipendiary, but accommodation is provided free of charge and the cost of one return airfare from the UK or elsewhere in Europe to Athens will be reimbursed. Fellows are required to submit a report covering their research and their time at the BSA to the BSA's Council.
Visiting Fellows will be expected to conduct a programme of their own research, give one public lecture at the BSA and an open seminar as part of the established programme. They should also be willing to concern themselves with the current students and their work and may wish to contribute additional lectures or seminars as appropriate in discussion with the Director.
Fellowships may be taken up in either the autumn or the spring semester in Athens or Knossos. The period of time is usually spent in a continuous block but it may alternatively be broken up into non-continuous blocks after discussion with the Director. Accommodation is also offered to an accompanying spouse/partner, at a nominal daily rate.
Before developing a proposal, applicants are advised to contact the relevant member of staff if they propose to include: BSA material (Archivist), BSA Museum material (Assistant Director), Knossos material (Knossos Curator), Fitch Laboratory collections and facilities (Fitch Director) or need permissions to visit sites or study material in Greek Museums (School Administrator). Further information about the School can be found at www.bsa.ac.uk.
Applicants should submit a covering letter, a statement of their proposed programme of research in Greece, and a Curriculum Vitae.

Tous les passionnés d’histoire, chercheuses et chercheurs, enseignantes et enseignants, professionnels de la culture et du patrimoine, réseaux d’étudiantes et d’étudiants, sont invités à mettre l’histoire à l’honneur le mercredi 25 mars 2026 par des évènements associant ouverture au plus grand nombre et rigueur scientifique.
Les manifestations des Nocturnes de l’Histoire auront lieu en fin d’après-midi, le soir ou la nuit, afin de pouvoir accueillir un public varié et elles mettront l'accent sur les aspects insolites voire ludiques de l'histoire, en plein air comme en salle. Cela pourra être une valorisation du patrimoine au sens large (visites de sites historiques et archéologiques, de lieux de mémoire, de musées, de dépôts d’archives, de fonds de manuscrits de bibliothèques, etc.), mais aussi des conférences, débats, cafés historiques, tables rondes, ateliers, escape games, spectacles vivants, reconstitutions historiques, projections-débats de films historiques, etc.
Après la première édition en 2021 (en distanciel pour cause de couvre-feu), les Nocturnes de l'Histoire ont connu chaque année un succès grandissant, avec en 2025 une cinquantaine manifestations en métropole et en outre-mer. Y ont participé des musées, archives, médiathèques, libraires, collectivités locales, universités, laboratoires de recherche, collèges et lycées, sociétés savantes et associations de professeurs, d’étudiants ou de passionnés d’histoire... Voir la liste complète sur le site web dédié : https://nocturnesdelhistoire.com/manifestations-2025/
Les NOCTURNES DE L’HISTOIRE sont organisées par les quatre sociétés d’historiennes et historiens de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche (SoPHAU, SHMESP, AHMUF, H2C). Elles souhaitent ainsi favoriser les initiatives locales visant à une promotion de l’histoire devant un public large.
Les quatre sociétés d’historiennes et historiens de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche n’organisent pas ces événements ni ne les financent, mais coordonnent les initiatives et la communication nationale et internationale. Elles veillent à garantir la qualité des propositions en accordant le label NOCTURNES DE L’HISTOIRE aux manifestations conformes à l’esprit du projet par leur intérêt pédagogique et scientifique et respectant l’éthique de la pratique historienne. Pour plus de précision, la charte est disponible sur notre site.
Les institutions et porteurs de projet soumis à de fortes contraintes de calendrier pour des raisons de programmation ou de location de salle et nécessitant une réponse anticipée, sont invités à écrire à l’adresse mail des Nocturnes avant la pause estivale en décrivant brièvement leur projet et en précisant à quelle date limite il leur faut obtenir une réponse. Nous traiterons ces propositions avec un calendrier spécifique.
Pour soumettre vos propositions au comité scientifique des Nocturnes de l’Histoire, il suffit de remplir l’appel à propositions en ligne (https://framaforms.org/appel-a-propositions-nocturnes-de-lhistoire-2026-1749899810) ou, à défaut, nous le renvoyer par mail avant le 17 novembre 2025 :
