Kommentar

Everywhere we look today there are borders and walls: some are torn down, others erected, some are welcomed, others spurned. Borders and walls are metaphors as well as physical materialities. They include as well as exclude, making clear who is “us” and who is other: notions of identity are predicated on ideas about alterity and boundaries. Maps delineate borders of various kinds and in doing so reveal our conceptions of political and cultural entities. We will explore some of these varied understandings of borders, boundaries, and walls, drawing on anthropological, archaeological, and historical literature, and consider the ways that they can be applied to our studies of the ancient world.
