Call for Papers: Plunder and Postliminium - WAWIC 2025

Plunder and Postliminium: the Laws of Looting in Ancient Warfare - WAWIC 2025

This panel, part of the War in the Ancient World International Conference 2025 (WAWIC 2025), invites contributions bringing together a set of perspectives on how states and generals imposed limits (whether real or theoretical) to wartime looting and what recompense was made for victims of wartime plunder. For this reason, we encourage proposals that highlight the different perspectives with regard to the topic of looting in the Classical Greek, Hellenistic and Roman worlds.

Scholars at all career stages are encouraged to submit proposals for 20-minute presentations in English. Submissions should include a title, a 300-word abstract, and a brief bio. Please send proposals to the panel organizers and to Dr. Lennart Gilhaus (lgilhaus@uni-bonn.de) by January 15, 2025.
