List of Classical Archaeologists at the Free University of Berlin
The list of classical archaeologists at the Free University of Berlin includes all university professors who taught or are teaching classical archeology at the Free University of Berlin . As a rule, this includes all regular university professors who were allowed or allowed to give lectures, i.e. who had habilitation .
After the Second World War, chairs for Classical Archeology were established at the Humboldt and Free Universities, but the subject quickly lost all importance in East Berlin. A chair has existed at the FU since the university was founded in 1948. Another professorship was added in the 1960s, and a third one for ancient building history in 1986 . The relationship between the university and the Berlin Collection of Antiquities has always been close . Further connections existed and still exist with the German Archaeological Institute . Many employees of the German Archaeological Institute and the museum worked at the same time as professors or honorary lecturers.
The first column shows the name of the person and their life data, the second column shows entry into the university, and the third column shows their departure. Column four names the highest position achieved at Freie Universität. At other universities, the corresponding lecturer may have made an even more extensive scientific career. The next column lists special features, the career path or other information relating to the university or institute. The last column shows pictures of the lecturers, which is currently difficult due to the image rights.
