Gallery Talk: Digging up Ancient Samaria-Sebaste

Gallery Talk: Digging up Ancient Samaria-Sebaste

Presented by Harvard Art Museums at Harvard Art Museums

Explore a display about early 20th-century excavations of the ancient city of Samaria-Sebaste, with curatorial fellow Caitlin Clerkin. You’ll learn how photographs and payroll records help us rewrite the history of archaeology—one that acknowledges the people behind the excavation of the objects on display.

Led by:
Caitlin Clerkin, Frederick Randolph Grace Curatorial Fellow in Ancient Art
