Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology majors Talia R. BarNoy '22 and Daniel D'Elia '22 were among the students who presented at the Fourth-Annual Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Conference on the Ancient World.
Daniel gave a presentation on "The Dissemination and Transformation of Astronomical Knowledge in Medieval Al-Andalus: A Look into the Relationship between Astronomy and Political Power." Talia's presentation focused on "The Acropolis of Athens in the Classical Period as a Story Space."
Daniel is from Connecticut and minoring in physics. After graduation, Daniel will be pursuing a master's degree in Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology through Bryn Mawr's A.B./M.A. program.
Talia is from New York City and minoring in creative writing.
"I am still figuring out where I will be after Bryn Mawr but it will most likely involve me being hunkered down in a library researching," says Talia. "Bryn Mawr has helped me discover how much I really enjoy exploring topics that spark my curiosity; it’s given me the space to fall down rabbit holes of research."
