It's been a great day so far: fantastic to welcome all our visitors. If you haven't come to see us yet, there is still a chance in the afternoon. #openday @swanseauni @suculture_comm

#CA2024 starts tomorrow and I'm one of the many speakers who's representing Swansea Uni Ancient World and speaking this Sunday, Panel 50. For me this is the #ChampionsLeague for ancient historians and classicists. Looking forward to speak and to meet many AH enthusiasts
CA 2024

Tomorrow is our second spring open day! We can't wait to talk to visitors and tell them about our courses & life as a student of the ancient world here in Swansea.

Happy spring, everybody!
Fresco of a woman picking flowers was found in the Villa Arianna in ancient Stabiae. She is often called Flora - but we cannot be sure that it depicts the Roman goddess of flowers and spring. Enjoy the spring vibe, though.

Market scene on a vase from Lipari (Cefalù Museum).

You can almost hear the two men haggling!

Going to the market (shopping, socialising, gossip & politics) was a man's job in the Greek world.

The Swansea Positive - the Egypt Centre is a whole bundle of all-round wonderful stories: might be worth a look!

This is a project of our own phenomenal Dr Mai Musié (ሙሴ) - absolutely worth attending. You can still sign up... see the original thread for the link.
