Welcome to the Library catalogue for the Vere Gordon Childe Centre
The Vere Gordon Childe Centre seeks to understand global human diversity through thousands of years of material culture, artistic representation and intangible heritage. We are unravelling the complex relationship between conflict and cooperation by engaging with past cultures and contemporary social movements; we are exploring how a diversity of human cultures in the past have been impacted by and adapted to climate change, uncovering diverse and innovative strategies for survival.
The Centre’s Reading Room contains more than 13,000 books from three major University of Sydney collections covering ancient theatre, Greek and Latin texts, and Mediterranean archaeology:
· The Australian Archaeological Institute at Athens (AAIA)
· Near Eastern Archaeology Foundation (NEAF)
· Classics and Ancient History discipline (C&AH)
