ALESSANDRO CARABIA

I am a third year PhD student at the University of Birmingham, working on the archaeology of Byzantine Liguria.  However, it all began when I was a kid, in a mix of Indiana Jones movies and school trips to Etruscan necropoleis. It became more serious at the University of Siena, where I was bewitched by the world of Late Antique and Early Byzantine studies, which ended up in a thesis on the eastern Byzantine frontier under Justinian. After one-year experience into the commercial sector I decided to return to academia with a different perspective and a new project.
