Subject: Phd studentship on Italic figurines

Applications are invited for an Open-Oxford-Cambridge AHRC DTP-funded Collaborative Doctoral Award at The Open University, in partnership with the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.
Italic bronze figurines - simple anthropomorphic and sometimes zoomorphic bronze figurines a few centimetres high, found in great numbers in upland central Italy - are some of the most frequent objects in European Museum collections. The aim of this project is to give new life to these enigmatic objects removed from their context, by providing comparative examples across Europe, fresh interpretations, added technical information on their manufacture and the insightful context of their use from excavated sanctuaries including Monte Ansciano (Gubbio). The results will take our knowledge beyond the important catalogue of these objects published by Giovanni Colonna in 1970: Bronzi votivi umbro-sabellici a figura umana. I. periodo arcaico.
