Monika Stobiecka

I received MA in History of Art and MA in Archaeology from the University of Warsaw. Currently I am a PhD student at the Faculty of „Artes Liberales”, University of Warsaw, where I am preparing a thesis on the status of archaeological artifacts in museums. 

My research interests are focused on museum studies, methodology in humanities and theory of archaeology. I have been awarded with a grant given by Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (project: „New technologies for the documentation of archaeological excavations. Ancient town of Akrai, south-eastern Sicily”, 2014-2016) and a scholarship given by Lanckoroński Foundation (research stay in London, 2016). As a member of Akrai mission I am responsible for inventory of artifacts and for elaboration of small finds made of stone.

I have delivered papers on following international conferences: Nordic TAG 2015 (Copenhagen University), TAG 2016 (University of Southampton), TAG 2017 (Cardiff University), 2nd Annual Memory Studies Association Conference (Copenhagen University), CAA 2018 (University of Tuebingen).
