The School of History, Classics, and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh is pleased to invite applications for a lectureship in Late Antique Archaeology, created as an investment in the flourishing area of Classical Art and Archaeology within the department of Classics.

For the Late Antique Archaeology post, we seek a specialist in approximately the fourth to eight centuries with a geographical focus on the later Roman empire, early Byzantium, and the post-Roman Western Mediterranean. The successful candidate will have a track record of internationally excellent publications, proportionate to career stage, and will continue to publish and research at the highest level in this and related disciplines. They will be expected to make a significant contribution to the teaching of late antique archaeology at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as to doctoral supervision, and will be expected to collaborate with other Roman archaeologists and other late antique and Byzantine specialists.
