Presentation

The Ancient History thematic sector was created in 1988 and the object of its investigations are the European prehistoric societies (from Neolithic to Iron Age) and the ancient Mediterranean societies. The sector explores material culture uses and expressions; pictorial representation meanings; receptions and uses of the past; digital heritage and theoretical-methodological discussions applied to these societies.
These assessments are developed from the PPGH -UFF's Lines of Research, based on the following themes:
Economy and Society – economic activities in rural and urban spaces; stratification and social movements; political economy; socioeconomic inequalities; economy and urbanism; networks and sociability forms; settlements and colonization.
Power and Society – political exercise forms in Antiquity; power and religion; political-social institutions and organization; opposition and contestation practices.
