Meeting of Postgraduates in Hellenic Or Roman Antiquities and Egyptology
(AMPHORAE), to be held at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, from

for the last five years as AMPHORA I, II, III, IV; and in 2011 as AMPHORAE V.
AMPHORAE is a conference designed for Postgraduate and Honours students from
Australia and New Zealand to interact and share their current work among peers
in a friendly and stimulating environment. We also invite graduate students
worldwide to submit an abstract.
The theme of this year's conference, "Continuity and Change: Identity in
the Ancient World", is intended to accommodate research from (but not
limited to) all of the fields of Classical Philology, Classical Art and
Literature, Ancient History, Archaeology, Late Antique Studies, and all other
areas of Ancient World Studies. Abstracts addressing any interpretation of the
topic are welcome.
Abstract submissions of 200-300 words for papers of 20 minutes duration are
requested. Please send your submissions and a brief biography by Friday, 1 June
to amphoraevi@gmail.com. If you would like to attend the conference, but will
not be presenting a paper, please inform us of your attendance, as well as any
dietary requirements, by Monday, June 11.
Conference registration is free but there will be a fee to attend the
conference dinner on the Friday evening. If you are interested in attending the
dinner, more details will be available shortly on our website. Small bursaries
will also be available (upon application) for students who will be travelling
