Announcement: DiverseNile Seminar 2025

I am very pleased to announce the launch of the DiverseNile Seminar 2025. We have been able to attract a great line-up of speakers, it will certainly be a very varied programme!

We start next week with Patrizia Heindl.

Patrizia has been working very intensively with the so-called fire dogs over the past year. She will present a summary of all the ideas on the function of these enigmatic objects which are also found in New Kingdom Nubia, in particular on Sai Island, but above all a review based on experimental archaeological approaches.

I am very excited and look forward to this lecture next Tuesday! See you there!
