Our course offers you the opportunity to study Greek and Roman art and archaeology at one of the largest Classics departments in the UK. The course is intercollegiate with options taught at King’s, UCL and Royal Holloway and you can take advantage of our close links to the Institute of Classical Studies, one of the UK’s best Classical libraries. It gives you the unique opportunity to acquire technical skills provided by optional modules in papyrology, epigraphy and palaeography. It leads to further research or careers in education, journalism, finance, politics and the cultural sector. Through this Classical Art & Archaeology MA you will explores the relationship between humans and their visual and material environment in the ancient world. You will examine monuments, art, objects and the craft skills that produced archeologically significant works. Traditionally, classical archaeology has focused on the art history of Classical Greece and Italy but has more recently branched out geographically, chronologically and theoretically. All trends are well represented here at King’s where our expert staff cover an extraordinarily wide range of specialisms. These include Bronze Age Aegean, Late Antique and Byzantine archaeology and architecture, Roman frontiers, Persian monuments, Greek pottery and sculpture, Roman mosaics and inscriptions. Many other staff members employ art historical and archaeological methods in their work.
