About The Author

Birte Poulsen

Birte Poulsen is Associate Professor at the Department of History and Classical Studies (Classical Archaeology), Aarhus University. She has been the head of the Danish Halikarnassos team since 2016. Her main research interests are art and archaeology of the imperial period and Late Antiquity with special reference to Asia Minor and Italy.

Poul Pedersen is Professor Emeritus at the University of Southern Denmark. He started working in Halikarnassos in 1970 and was head of the Danish Halikarnassos team 1989-2015. His main interests are the topography of ancient Halikarnassos, the architecture of western Asia Minor and Greek Architecture and its impact on later times.

John Lund is a Senior Researcher in the Danish National Museum, who has studied the finds from Kristian Jeppesen’s excavations at the Maussolleion of Halikarnassos intermittently since 1999.
