Major themes include Ancient Egypt over a 1000 year timespan, Minoan Crete, Mycenaean & Classical Greece and the Hellenistic & Roman worlds.
The Monash University Library has substantial collections to support this subject area. There is overlap with Indigenous Studies, History and Anthropology. For more information on archaeology and classics taught at Monash, visit the Centre's website.
