Conference with John Scheid

and end-of-year reception (INRA)

(Registration required – see link below)

.



INRA, in collaboration with the Musée d'Histoire[s] Diekirch and Ville Diekirch, is pleased to invite you to its final conference of 2026.

The conference will focus on archaeological research into sanctuaries dedicated to nature deities in the Mediterranean region, presented by John Scheid.

Between 1975 and 2012, John Scheid led excavations in Rome, in the sacred grove of the goddess Dea Dia, and at Jebel Oust in Tunisia, at a sanctuary built around a hot spring near Oudna. These two sites have highlighted the challenges we face in understanding the nature of this type of place of worship.

The lecture will be followed by a year-end reception hosted by the Ville de Diekirch. It will be an opportunity to share a convivial moment and exchange ideas before bringing the year to a close.

.

The event will take place on 17 December at 7.00 pm in the "salle de fête" of the Lycée classique de Diekirch.
