We are very pleased to welcome Dr Ada Nifosi, lecturer in Ancient History at the University of Kent, to talk about the explorations of Homer’s underworld.

In this talk the Greek Underworld as described in the Odyssey will be explored. Following Odysseus’ trip from Circe’s island to the dark land of the Cimmerians we will meet the shades who were once powerful kings and heroes.

There will also be discussion about examples of the real ‘gates to the underworld’ found in Turkey and Greece by archaeologists.

This talk is open and free to attend by visiting students, parents and staff. Please use the ‘Book Now’ button to let us know who is attending, telling us your name, school and year and we will send you further details.
