Journal for and by students at Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies.
TORS has subsumed Native American Languages and Cultures, Assyriology, Egyptology, and Near Eastern Archaeology in Ancient Culture Studies. These distinct areas of study share a focus on material culture, language, and history, and provide a broad chronological range that complements the geographical diversity of the department as a whole.
Ancient Culture Studies at TORS is a unique consellation of subjects in the Nordic context. It has a strong research environment with internationally leading scholars, and hosts several large research projects. Its impressive research output, combined with an outstanding track record of raising external funding, ensures that the subject group, as well as the individual subjects, enjoy international recognition.
Ongoing fieldwork in the Middle East and central America, including collaborations with scholars in host nations, means that Ancient Culture Studies constitutes an important link between Denmark and the global community. They also play a key role in disseminating knowledge about our shared human past to the wider public.
Papyrus Carlsberg Collection – houses the only surviving Egyptian temple library, with ongoing research projects and international collaborations.
The Archaeological Collections and Archives contain tens of thousands of artefacts, fieldwork records and personal archives from past and recent excavations in the Middle East. Much of the material is actively under study and used in teaching. Examples:
The Archaeological Laboratory contains a range of equipment for the analysis of archaeological objects, including several microscopes, 3D scanner and sampling materials.
The Digital Imaging Laboratory was recently built up with a grant from the Carlsberg Foundation and is used to create high-resolution images of archaeological objects.
