Profile
Giorgia Marchiori is an archaeologist specialising in Graeco-Roman Egypt and domestic archaeology. She collaborates with several prominent projects in the Nile Delta. Her work primarily focuses on analysing the daily lives of ancient communities through the lens of their domestic and urban contexts.
She has an MSc in GIS and Spatial Analysis in Archaeology from the University College London Institute of Archaeology and a PhD from Durham University. Her doctoral research explored Late Antique housing in the Western Nile Delta, focusing on a case study mudbrick house dating back to the early 5th century CE from the site of Kom al-Ahmer in Beheira. This research sheds light on domestic life, architecture, and the interplay between regional and Roman influences during Late Antiquity.
