On 28 April, the American Academy in Rome will host an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars to examine how riverscapes changed in the centuries of the Roman empire and afterwards and what those changes meant for human societies and their economies. The conference, River Ecologies and Exchange, draws on geology, archaeology, and history to reconstruct major river systems and trace their evolving relationships with the communities that lived alongside them.

The Swedish Institute for Classical Studies in Rome and the American Academy in Rome will host a three-day conference on archaeological study collections and their role in our understanding of the past. The conference is organized by scholars from the University of Texas, Austin and the Swedish Institute for Classical Studies in Rome and will take place in Rome among a concentration of historic collections of archaeological material housed in academies and research institutes. Participants will explore collections in the context of the broader intellectual history of the period between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries and the epistemological and classificatory transformations it witnessed.
