Dr Elisa Roßberger has been appointed to a junior professorship in Digital Humanities for Near Eastern Archaeology and Ancient Near Eastern Studies, and Dr Martin Gruber to a junior professorship in Near Eastern Archaeology. Both are researching the evidence of ancient cultures in an area that stretches from present-day western Turkey to Afghanistan and from the Caucasus to the Arabian Peninsula. From prehistoric times to late antiquity, these cultures have shaped human history in many ways.
