In the course "Isotopic Methods in Archaeology", students will explore the use of isotopic radiometric dating methods, specifically radiocarbon dating, as well as the use of stable isotopes to reconstruct, among others, past diets, mobility patterns, climates, environments, trade, and provenance. The course will incorporate a mix of lectures and hands-on data modeling sessions to provide students with a solid foundation in isotopic principles and their application in archaeological research. Students are expected to actively engage in discussions and activities throughout the duration of the course.

The main aim of this course is to introduce participants to the fundamentals of pottery of the Near East from the Early Roman to Late Ottoman periods (from the 1st to early 20th century AD). It does so through lectures, the hands-on examination of various pottery samples and the critical elaboration of selected scientific papers. In addition to that, students will be preliminarily introduced to basic quantitative methods and laboratory analyses. The main flow of the discussion during the course will oscillate around various issues related to the socio-economic significance and life cycle of pottery. The program offers participants the chance to acquire fundamental knowledge on the use of mass pottery material in the archaeological record, understand the ceramic production and distribution processes, observe the changing characteristics of pottery for all historical periods discussed, and finally gain familiarity with modern methodology of pottery studies.
