Arts, Culture & Ideas: Phoenicians in New England?

Join us for the final Arts, Culture & Ideas event of the academic year. Gather with fellow BU alumni for lunch, and learn about Phoenicians from Professor Becky Martin. Becky Martin is Assistant Professor of Greek art at BU. Professor Martin’s research focuses on the ancient Mediterranean, particularly the intersection of the Greek and Phoenician worlds, with emphasis on ethnicity, identity and culture. She has written on Greek and Phoenician art and archaeology, much of which is tied to her participation in the excavations of Tel Dor, Israel. Her current book project concerns eastern Mediterranean culture contact. The Arts, Culture & Ideas series is co-hosted by Boston University's Center for the Humanities and the BU Alumni Association.
