Materia Medica at ARAM

At the end of July, I participated in the ARAM Society for Syro-Mesopotamian Studies fifty First International Conference on The Decapolis: History & Archaeology at the Oriental Institute at the University of Oxford. My paper, co-authored with Patrick Scott Geyer (University of San Diego), was “The materia medica of monastic health care at Hippos Palaistinēs.” Publication is anticipated by next summer.

A corollary benefit was to see so many colleagues from Hippos who also presented.
