Ciao!

Athens, Rome, Jerusalem. The modern world rests upon three ancient Mediterranean civilizations and their legacies: the Greek, the Roman, and the Jewish. I am passionate about the intersections of these remarkable cultures, such as:


 * Dynamics of Hellenization and Romanization
 * The practices and beliefs of Second Temple Judaism and its evolution during Late Antiquity
 * Early Christianity and the Christianization of the Roman Empire
 * Political, social, and religious developments in the Late Roman and Byzantine Empires

I'm deeply passionate about:


 * Archaeological theory and practice
 * Classical architecture
 * The archaeology of Italy
 * The archaeology of the Holy Land and the broader Roman East
 * Philology and iconography - both insightful tools for deciphering historical and cultural evolutions

I'm thrilled to be here and always open to collaborations.
