ARTEFACT ITINERARIES. Tracing Collection Journeys Across Multiple Agents.
Postdoctoral Fellowship: FNRS UCLouvain (01/10/2020-30/09/2023).
This postdoctoral research project aims to establish an original methodology for investigating the biography of archaeological artefacts within the context of archaeology’s development as a scientific discipline. My project will tackle this challenge through the Fernand Mayence’s collections and archives at UCLouvain.
Mayence was an important figure in the development of archaeology in Belgium in the early 20th century. His personal archives and acquisitions offer a unique opportunity to study the emergence, dissemination, and transformation of cultural values over time, and how these impact the way we institutionalise the past and its material remnants.
Supervisor: Dr. Prof. Charlotte Langohr (F.R.S.-FNRS - UCLouvain, AegIS).
