Committee on Ancient History
The American Philological Association's Committee on Ancient History comprises a diverse body of practicing historians from all levels of the North American educational system. As a standing committee within the Education Division, it seeks to promote excellence in the study of Ancient Mediterranean History, encourage innovative pedagogical techniques, and facilitate interaction across related disciplines and educational levels. The Committee's various activities reflect this mission, including the sponsorship of panel discussions at various regional and national professional meetings, the creation of cooperative partnerships with other academic groups, the organization of traveling displays, and teacher workshops and other outreach programs. Additionally, the publications in its Occasional Papers present innovative and authoritative perspectives on various issues of pedagogy particularly relevant to those engaged in the study of Ancient Mediterranean History.
