Since 1988 Dr. Jan Gadeyne has been teaching for several American study abroad programs, including Temple University, Cornell University, the University of Miami and Trinity College, and periodically lecturing for architecture programs, such as Yale University, the University of Maryland and Pratt Institute. His courses include Urban History of Rome in Antiquity and the Middle Ages, Ancient Roman Art and Architecture, Late antique and early Byzantine Art and Architecture, Ancient History of Rome and the Mediterranean. He has moreover walked over 50 times with students around the Aurelian walls of Rome.
Since 2005, Gadeyne is co-director of the excavation of the Roman villa on the Piano della Civita in Artena (40 miles southeast of Rome). The title of his Ph.D. in Archaeology and Ancient Art History is “Function and dysfunction of the City: Rome in the 5th century AD.” He has published papers on Roman lead seals, Early Christian apse mosaics and recently on the formation of the street system in Early Medieval Rome and (especially) on the excavations of the Roman villa at Artena. Gadeyne has co-edited, together with Gregory Smith, Perspectives on Public Space in Rome, from Antiquity to the Present Day, published by Ashgate in 2013. He is also one of the officers of the Rome charter of the Archaeological Institute of America.
