OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This year’s conference is titled “Discovery, Science, and Technology in the Ancient World – Traditions and Innovations” and focuses on the Ancient technologies developed in the ancient world, and emphasizes cross-cultural comparison by including the deep past of all cultures. It will feature scholars from across the world who persevere in their research in spite of obstacles. Additionally, Special Sessions are hosted on each day as forums for those who are interested in proactively developing real solutions to current problems in Ancient Studies. We are also happy to announce four Keynote speakers: Dr Adrienne Mayor, Dr Gerardo Aldana, Dr Geoffrey Killen and Dr Alexander Jones. Along with our current committed partners, including World History Encyclopedia and World of Antiquity, we have exposure to over 600,000 followers across the platforms.
