Writing, scribal practice and literacy are important differentials at the borders of the subaltern. This series examines some aspects of writing, scribal practice and the ‘scripting’ of lives and experiences that are in someway ‘discrepant’ (Said) in relation to the centralised and elite forms of power and influence with which the discipline of Classics has historically been concerned.

KARIA FROM THE LATE 4TH CENTURY BCE TO THE IMPERIAL PERIOD NEW DATA, NEW FINDS, NEW APPROACHES
This conference will focus on the period between the last decades of Achaemenid influence in Karia and the end of the Hekatomnid dynasty, through to the early imperial period, when the advance of the Roman Empire resulted in a period of relative stability. The emphasis will be on local perspectives and how the communities of the region responded to the changing political environment, examining civic culture, religious practices, and how the inhabitants of Karia engaged with their landscape and history.
