Elisa Daga
Postdoctoral fellow at the Italian Archaeological School at Athens
Elisa Daga obtained her PhD from the University of Pisa in 2024 with a dissertation on the so-called “prayers for justice”, offering the first corpus of these inscriptions and a historical interpretation of the crimes denounced in them. She is preparing the dissertation for publication as a monograph. Currently she is a postdoctoral fellow at the Italian Archaeological School at Athens. Her research is grounded in epigraphy and includes Spartan dedicatory practices, Hellenistic informal justice and economic practices, especially deposits and loans of textiles, as well as the relationship between literary representations and epigraphic evidence for women’s access to networks of philia.
