Late Antique Christianity in Southeastern Europe, Yambol, Bulgaria, October 3–5, 2019

The Late Antique Christianity in Southeastern Europe conference seeks to bring a diverse group of scholars in various fields of science together to discuss the ways in which Christianity emerged, spread and established itself in the Balkans. This will be the first major event of a three-year project LABedia: Encyclopedia of Late Antique Balkans funded by the National Scientific Fund of Bulgaria and will be held under the patronage of the Yambol Municipality.

• Christianization of Southeastern Europe;
• Church organization in Southeastern Europe;
• Christian topography;
• Christian art and architecture;
• Everyday life in Christian communities;
• Monasticism and monastic communities;
