Based on the general knowledge of Greek archeology and art history gained during the three-year degree course, the teaching aims to provide a thematic study of some specific manifestations of Greek material and visual culture. Topics will be addressed that will analyze the most different examples of architecture and the artistic and artisan production of the Greek world of Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic ages. The main purpose is to highlight the fundamental contribution of archaeological research to the understanding of some important cultural and social phenomena of the ancient world, in the framework of a methodological approach based on a careful analysis of textual (literary and historical) and contextual (archaeological and historical-artistic) data. Among the various issues that can be addressed, particular attention it will be paid to those connected with the archeology of cult and ritual practices.
