Avner Ecker

 

I've been trained in the Archaeology and Classics departments at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, wrote a PhD on the Urbanization of Roman Palestine, and was first an assistant, now an editor, of the Corpus Inscriptionum Iudaeae Palaestinae (CIIP). I am interested in Hellenistic and Roman Archaeology/Epigraphy, specifically in the Near East. I work as a lecturer in the Institute of Archaeology and History Department, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
