Welcome to the Ottawa Network for the Study of Late Antiquity (ONSLA)

Our members are drawn from Canadian universities primarily in the Ottawa region but also further afield. They are experts in various fields of study needed to understand the Late Antique period in all its complexity, such as rhetoric, history, historiography, religion, philosophy, palaeography, archaeology, papyrology, epigraphy, and ancient languages (Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Aramaic, Coptic, Ethiopic, Syriac).

In addition to our research and graduate studies, the Network sponsors lectures and other events which are open to the public. We hope that you will join us!
