Introduction
The Archaeology course encompasses Archaeology, Assyriology, Egyptology and Biological Anthropology. Archaeology uses material evidence to explore the nature and development of particular societies and to explain the variations and commonalities of the human past. Assyriology is the study of the languages, cultures, history and archaeology of ancient Mesopotamia (Sumer, Babylonia and Assyria).
Egyptology is the study of the history, languages, society, archaeology and religion of ancient Egypt. Biological Anthropology explores human evolution, biology and behaviour, and the interaction between biology and culture.
The Director of Studies for Archaeology is Dr Corinne Roughley, a College Tutor and Academic Resources Fellow.
