Dennis Mario Beck

I am an Assistant Professor at the Department for Classical Archaeology in the Institute for Archaeology and Cultural Anthropology at the University of Bonn. My main research interests are roman architecture, as well as, the actors involved in resource management systems in roman building economy. Here, I am an expert on quarries and all processes in the quarry industries. One of my further research projects investigates networks of slaves and freedmen in the roman economy. I am working on different topics regarding ancient religion and sacral landscapes, especially the cult and sanctuaries of the Goddess Hera in the Western Mediterranean. 

I am motivated to explore cultural heritage, which entails the communication and education of the past based on material culture.

I aim to strengthen awareness that the study of cultural heritage can play a pivotal role in addressing today's challenges related to sustainability, identity, and mobility.
