PAST FIELD SCHOOL EXCAVATIONS
The Institute has been involved in conducting field-school excavations from 2003, both partnering with universities and acting alone. Partners have included Oxford and Stanford Universities (post aedem Castoris excavation in the Roman Forum, 2003-2005), The University of Texas at Austin (Ostia Antica synagogue), and the University of Bologna (Ostia Antica, Porta Marina). AIRC's excavations at the Villa delle Vignacce in the Roman suburbium were conducted in conjunction with the City of Rome.
