The Transformation and Christianization of the Roman Empire between Centre and Periphery

The website of the 17th International Congress of Christian Archaeology 2018 is now available online at: https://ciac.sites.uu.nl. The congress is open for registration. The call for papers has been posted.
Archaeologists, epigraphers, and historians, including graduate students, are kindly invited to submit an abstract to one of the congress’ sessions. An overview of which sessions are open can be found here: https://ciac.sites.uu.nl/program/
The thematic focus of the conference will be on the question of boundaries, borders, borderlands, and transitional zones. This theme will be explored from a variety of perspectives, including thematic-conceptual and spatial-geographic ones. The conference aims at breaking new ground in this crucial area, in terms of content as well as methodology. In terms of geography and chronology, presentations may focus on the art, archaeology, and epigraphy of any border area of the later Roman world, including its European, North African, and Near Eastern provinces, up until the seventh century A.D.
