The Palatial Studies Research Network has been officially launched at the next 32nd EAA Annual Meeting (26–29 August 2026) Athens during the session #5 Housing the Court – Infrastructures, Communities, and Power in Palatial Environments. The session investigated the residential and infrastructural dimensions of imperial residences, redirecting attention from ceremonial spaces to the largely overlooked architecture of housing and service infrastructure.
