Every Thursday at 4pm, Prof Michael Scott takes part in a live Facebook Q&A session, answering questions on all things Classics and Ancient History. Follow the link for an archive of past and present videos. The friendly and welcoming style of these videos make them an excellent teaching resource, while the videos also include information on upcoming events.

Ancient Invisible Cities

In autumn 2018, our very own Prof Michael Scott presented a landmark series on BBC2, Ancient Invisible Cities, taking the laser scanning techniques used in Italy's Invisible Cities to Cairo, Athens, and Istanbul. This series, with its engaging mixture of adventure, exploration, history, and technology, is an excellent potential teaching resource. More information on the behind the scenes aspects and filming of Ancient Invisible Cities can be found on Michael's website - www.michaelscottweb.com.

British School at Athens Video Archive

The British School at Athens (BSA) have created a video archive of lectures which will be of interest to those studying classics and ancient history. The following lectures were recorded by the British School at Athens in both Athens and London, as part of our academic lecture programmes. These presentations document new research and new ideas. Some of these ideas are currently unpublished.

Although the lectures were not given with the school syllabus in mind, they have been organised here by module, to provide ‘extension’ activities and additional material for interested students.

The information in these lectures can be used when students are required to make reference to recent scholarship.
