Anna Lucille Boozer

Associate Professor, Department of History, Baruch College

Anna Boozer researches various aspects of Roman Mediterranean archaeology, including specialist subjects on the Roman East, Roman Egypt, imperialism and daily life. Her current research investigates the migration of peoples, goods and ideas across the borders of imperially controlled regions in order to understand how ordinary people experienced the Roman Empire. She is particularly interested in how divergent categories of identity-such as gender, ethnicity, status and age-affected modes of self-representation under Roman rule. Anna has excavated across the Roman Mediterranean and she currently excavates a Roman city in the Western Desert of Egypt as part of the Amheida Project. She also co-directs MAP: The Meroe Archival Project with Intisar Elzein Soghayroun (University of Khartoum, Sudan).
