His research centers on the intellectual, political, and religious history of the Roman Empire and the early Byzantine Empire. He is the author of seven books and the editor of five more, including The Final Pagan Generation (UC Press, 2015), Hypatia: The Life and Legend of an Ancient Philosopher, (Oxford University Press, 2017), Mortal Republic: How Rome Fell into Tyranny (Basic Books, 2018), and The Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome: The History of a Dangerous Idea (Oxford University Press, 2021). His most recent book, The Romans: A 2000 Year History (Basic Books, 2025), traces the history of the Roman state from the 8th century BC through 1204 AD. His work has also been featured in Time, Vox, Smithsonian, the Economist, the Wall Street Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, British Museum Magazine, and the New York Times. Before coming to UCSD in 2012, Professor Watts taught for ten years at Indiana University. He teaches courses on Byzantine History, Roman History, Late Antique Christianity, Roman numismatics, and the history of the Medieval Mediterranean. \n\nThe Roman citizen body lived an almost inconceivably long life. Between the 8th century BC and the 15thcentury AD, nearly 100 generations of Romans superintended a political legacy they had inherited from their ancestors and handed down to their children. Nearly every element of Roman life changed during those two millennia. The state expanded from a hilltop settlement into a massive empire. Its center moved from Italy to Constantinople. Its dominant language changed from Latin to Greek. Its weaponry evolved from iron swords and bronze spears to Greek fire and gunpowder. It incorporated countless new gods before ultimately becoming Christian. And yet the thread linking the Roman present to its past never snapped. For all of their history, Romans used this past to help understand their world and determine the contours of its future. Tradition served as a governor on the pace of necessary change.\n\nThis Thomas Spencer Jerome lecture series introduces the idea of Roman interchronological history to explain how Romans found and maintained this balance between innovation and tradition. Interchronological history recognizes that Roman scholastic, social, familial, and religious traditions created situations in which Romans in the present spoke the words and felt the feelings of figures from the real or imagined past. These ancient situations encouraged people to connect personally and emotionally with figures from the past and made it natural to see in the past a set of frameworks that allowed one to both understand the present and imagine possible futures that might result from it. \n\nThese lectures explain how Roman educational, family, religious, and literary culture produced this way of interpreting the present and imagining the future through deep engagement with the past. They will then show how an interchronological approach to Roman history expands our understanding of everything from the political power of Roman women to the nature of Iconoclasm and the surprising durability of the Roman bond market. By their conclusion, the lectures will point to new ways to answer questions about the Roman past and suggest non-Roman contexts in which this historical method can also be applied.\n \nProfessor Watts will present four lectures and one seminar between March 9 and 19, 2026: \n\n\u2022 What is Interchronological Roman History? Monday, March 9, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League\nThis lecture reconstructs an interchronological historical method based on how Romans were educated and socialized to connect with the words, experiences, and feelings of people in their shared past in a fashion that ensured their reactions in the moment and plans for the future remained connected to the traditions of the past.\n\n\u2022 Interchronological History and the Political Power of Roman Women, Thursday, March 12, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League\nUsing an interchronological approach, this lecture shows how literature, public commemorations, and monuments encouraged Romans of both genders to recognize the political power of Roman women by speaking the words of female political exemplars, feeling their emotions, and understanding the circumstances surrounding their political interventions. \n\n\u2022 Classical Studies Graduate Student Seminar: Containerization and the Creation of Interchronological Spaces in Imperial Rome, Friday, March 13, 12:00 pm \nThis seminar will look at how the creators and sponsors of a series of monuments in Rome curated space to generate an experience that joined the present in which the monument was unveiled with elements of the past to define a transition to a promised future. Using the theory of artistic containerization, we will see how each space was designed to showcase elements of the Roman past in a way that channeled specific themes important to both the present identity of the monument\u2019s sponsor and a future they were promising to deliver.\n\n\u2022 An Interchronological Approach to Roman Religion and Political History Monday, March 16, 5;30 pm, Vandenberg Room, Michigan League\nThis lecture explains how an interchronological history of Roman religion and politics can help us understand why this basic understanding of the role of the divine in shaping the tangible realities of Roman life persisted as Roman religion evolved from the practices of a small pagan city state into those of a large Christian empire.\n\n\u2022 The Failures of Justin II and the Case for Interchronological Roman Macroeconomic History, Thursday, March 19, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League \nThis uses an interchronological comparative framework to reconstruct the institutional history of Roman finance and macroeconomics in order to explain how the sixth century emperor Justin II inadvertently crippled Rome's nearly 800-year-old financial system.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"145427-21897338@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/145427", "building_id":"1000191", "building_name":"Michigan League", "building_official_id":1000191, "campus_maps_id":"108", "campus_maps_link_path":"michigan-league", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/michigan-league", "room":"Vandenberg Room", "location_name":"Michigan League", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Archaeology"], "website":"https:\/\/www.hachettebookgroup.com\/titles\/edward-j-watts\/the-romans\/9781541619821\/?lens=basic-books", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.hachettebookgroup.com\/titles\/edward-j-watts\/the-romans\/9781541619821\/?lens=basic-books", "title":"The Romans: A 2,000-Year History by Edward J.

His research centers on the intellectual, political, and religious history of the Roman Empire and the early Byzantine Empire. He is the author of seven books and the editor of five more, including The Final Pagan Generation (UC Press, 2015), Hypatia: The Life and Legend of an Ancient Philosopher, (Oxford University Press, 2017), Mortal Republic: How Rome Fell into Tyranny (Basic Books, 2018), and The Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome: The History of a Dangerous Idea (Oxford University Press, 2021). His most recent book, The Romans: A 2000 Year History (Basic Books, 2025), traces the history of the Roman state from the 8th century BC through 1204 AD. His work has also been featured in Time, Vox, Smithsonian, the Economist, the Wall Street Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, British Museum Magazine, and the New York Times. Before coming to UCSD in 2012, Professor Watts taught for ten years at Indiana University. He teaches courses on Byzantine History, Roman History, Late Antique Christianity, Roman numismatics, and the history of the Medieval Mediterranean. \n\nThe Roman citizen body lived an almost inconceivably long life. Between the 8th century BC and the 15thcentury AD, nearly 100 generations of Romans superintended a political legacy they had inherited from their ancestors and handed down to their children. Nearly every element of Roman life changed during those two millennia. The state expanded from a hilltop settlement into a massive empire. Its center moved from Italy to Constantinople. Its dominant language changed from Latin to Greek. Its weaponry evolved from iron swords and bronze spears to Greek fire and gunpowder. It incorporated countless new gods before ultimately becoming Christian. And yet the thread linking the Roman present to its past never snapped. For all of their history, Romans used this past to help understand their world and determine the contours of its future. Tradition served as a governor on the pace of necessary change.\n\nThis Thomas Spencer Jerome lecture series introduces the idea of Roman interchronological history to explain how Romans found and maintained this balance between innovation and tradition. Interchronological history recognizes that Roman scholastic, social, familial, and religious traditions created situations in which Romans in the present spoke the words and felt the feelings of figures from the real or imagined past. These ancient situations encouraged people to connect personally and emotionally with figures from the past and made it natural to see in the past a set of frameworks that allowed one to both understand the present and imagine possible futures that might result from it. \n\nThese lectures explain how Roman educational, family, religious, and literary culture produced this way of interpreting the present and imagining the future through deep engagement with the past. They will then show how an interchronological approach to Roman history expands our understanding of everything from the political power of Roman women to the nature of Iconoclasm and the surprising durability of the Roman bond market. By their conclusion, the lectures will point to new ways to answer questions about the Roman past and suggest non-Roman contexts in which this historical method can also be applied.\n \nProfessor Watts will present four lectures and one seminar between March 9 and 19, 2026: \n\n\u2022 What is Interchronological Roman History? Monday, March 9, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League\nThis lecture reconstructs an interchronological historical method based on how Romans were educated and socialized to connect with the words, experiences, and feelings of people in their shared past in a fashion that ensured their reactions in the moment and plans for the future remained connected to the traditions of the past.\n\n\u2022 Interchronological History and the Political Power of Roman Women, Thursday, March 12, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League\nUsing an interchronological approach, this lecture shows how literature, public commemorations, and monuments encouraged Romans of both genders to recognize the political power of Roman women by speaking the words of female political exemplars, feeling their emotions, and understanding the circumstances surrounding their political interventions. \n\n\u2022 Classical Studies Graduate Student Seminar: Containerization and the Creation of Interchronological Spaces in Imperial Rome, Friday, March 13, 12:00 pm \nThis seminar will look at how the creators and sponsors of a series of monuments in Rome curated space to generate an experience that joined the present in which the monument was unveiled with elements of the past to define a transition to a promised future. Using the theory of artistic containerization, we will see how each space was designed to showcase elements of the Roman past in a way that channeled specific themes important to both the present identity of the monument\u2019s sponsor and a future they were promising to deliver.\n\n\u2022 An Interchronological Approach to Roman Religion and Political History Monday, March 16, 5;30 pm, Vandenberg Room, Michigan League\nThis lecture explains how an interchronological history of Roman religion and politics can help us understand why this basic understanding of the role of the divine in shaping the tangible realities of Roman life persisted as Roman religion evolved from the practices of a small pagan city state into those of a large Christian empire.\n\n\u2022 The Failures of Justin II and the Case for Interchronological Roman Macroeconomic History, Thursday, March 19, 5:30 pm, Hussey Room, Michigan League \nThis uses an interchronological comparative framework to reconstruct the institutional history of Roman finance and macroeconomics in order to explain how the sixth century emperor Justin II inadvertently crippled Rome's nearly 800-year-old financial system.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"145427-21897339@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/145427", "building_id":"1000191", "building_name":"Michigan League", "building_official_id":1000191, "campus_maps_id":"108", "campus_maps_link_path":"michigan-league", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/michigan-league", "room":"Hussey Room", "location_name":"Michigan League", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Archaeology"], "website":"https:\/\/www.hachettebookgroup.com\/titles\/edward-j-watts\/the-romans\/9781541619821\/?lens=basic-books", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.hachettebookgroup.com\/titles\/edward-j-watts\/the-romans\/9781541619821\/?lens=basic-books", "title":"The Romans: A 2,000-Year History by Edward J.

The high-altitude puna of the Andes is a unique ecological region, historically considered \u201cmarginal\u201d for forager occupation on account of hypoxic conditions, intense solar radiation, difficult terrain, and relatively sparse resources (Aldenderfer 1998). Nonetheless, the region has yielded significant archaeological data that not only attest to a substantial human presence, but also showcase remarkable human adaptability including surprisingly early occupation of high altitudes (Rademaker et al. 2014; Rademaker and Moore 2018). This site presents a unique lens to understand human responses to dynamic environmental conditions, with ~12,000 years of occupation by humans from at least the Early Holocene into the present. In this talk, I discuss findings from the 2024 and 2025 excavations of the site, linking material evidence to regional-scale environmental conditions during the Holocene.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"147210-21900528@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/147210", "building_id":"1000221", "building_name":"School of Education", "building_official_id":1000221, "campus_maps_id":"136", "campus_maps_link_path":"school-of-education", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/school-of-education", "room":"1322", "location_name":"School of Education", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Archaeology"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Museum of Anthropological Archaeology", "group_id":"3760", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Anthropology", "group_id":"3469", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/anthro" }, { "group_name":"Interdepartmental Program in Ancient Mediterranean Art and Archaeology", "group_id":"3719", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Archaeology at Michigan", "group_id":"5160", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Large rocky outcrop with a rockshelter at the bottom behind a grassy field", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_147210_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/147210\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21900528 } , { "id":"142417-21890907", "datetime_modified":"20251212T105136", "datetime_start":"20260404T090000", "datetime_end":"20260404T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-04", "date_end":"2026-04-04", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Materia Magica: Materiality and Ritual in the Greco-Roman World", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"View a diverse array of artifacts which were created to communicate with and call upon various unseen, supernatural forces for aid and protection.

Those explorations uncovered a Nabataean village, one of the earliest Roman forts in the Roman provenance of Arabia, and several churches and mosques on the approximately 1-square-kilometer site. Yet much remains unknown about the daily life of Humayma\u2019s Classical-period residents, the funerary landscape, and urban industry in a peripheral, arid landscape. This lecture will discuss what 30 years of archaeological work has discovered about the site, under the direction of John Oleson and M. Barbara Reeves, and the recently renewed project, directed by Craig Harvey (PhD, University of Michigan), Sarah Wenner, and Amanda Hardman. \n\nSarah Wenner, Ph.D. (Classical Archaeology, University of Cincinnati, 2023), is the jointly appointed assistant professor of archaeology at the American Center of Research (Amman, Jordan) and provenance researcher and object historian at the Cincinnati Art Museum. In Jordan, where she has worked for well over a decade, Wenner serves as the associate director of the Humayma Excavation Project and assistant director of the Petra Garden and Pool Project. Currently, she is editing an exhibition catalogue on ancient queenship of the eastern Mediterranean and West Asia in the 1st millennium BCE and the final report for the Roman Street Project. Her work explores the making of Roman cities through the recycling of urban waste.\n\nFAST (Field Archaeology Series on Thursday) Lectures are free and open to the public. This event will take place in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum\u2019s Newberry Hall. Light refreshments and food will be provided at 5:30 PM, with the lecture starting at 6:00 PM.\n\nIf you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event, please visit our accessibility page at https:\/\/myumi.ch\/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

A question often asked in the galleries is how the artifacts were created\u2014their shapes, their colors, their designs. In this tour, we will learn about a number of Kelsey artifacts through the processes used to create them. As we travel through the museum, we will see fine Greek pottery, learn how (and why) a number of the Egyptian artifacts in the galleries are blue, and consider why maybe the Michigan Department of Transportation should evaluate Roman construction materials for our roads! Join us to uncover the innovative processes of the past.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors.
