CAL—Lisbon Archeology Center, part of the Lisbon City Council, organizes the 1st Olisipo Entre Mares International Congress.

Between November 23rd and 25th, at the Centro Cultural de Belém, 10 lectures will be held, and 13 new studies and investigations will be presented, with the participation of around 30 experts.

As part of the celebrations of the 10th anniversary of CAL – Lisbon Archeology Center and integrated into the Roman Lisbon: Felicitas Iulia Olisipo project, this international congress brings together a group of outstanding experts from various nationalities, including speakers, moderators, and guests, to promote the sharing of the most recent scientific knowledge about the past of the city of Lisbon and its region, also envisaging a reflection mainly aimed at its integration into the Ancient World, as a port city between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.

In addition to wanting to enhance the debate between the speakers present in the different panels and the participating public, it is also essential to launch paths for the construction of a global vision of Iron Age Olisipo in the Roman and late-Roman periods, with a focus in the multiple historical, anthropological and archaeological aspects that can serve as a reference for current and future research.
