New Wikipedian. Interested particularly in art, archaeology and the ancient world.


Roman Art course edit

I am a Roman art historian. In the fall 2022 and 2019 terms I have asked my Roman art undergraduates to add to Wikipedia.

Our research focus is "grounding."[1] We plan to contribute information on how famous pieces of Roman art were re-discovered, dug up, restored, and displayed. My hope is that these facts will be useful to readers interested in what we can know about the context of Roman art works that come to light outside of scientific excavations, and in the second lives ancient objects have lead in the modern world.

As I'm new to wikipedia, I welcome any help on my talk page. If you have advice on wikipedia course assignments, or if you feel one of my students is not following the proper guidelines and policies, that's my responsibility, so please mention it on my talk page.
