Samantha L. Martin-McAuliffe’s main teaching and research interests lie in antiquity, especially the architecture and urbanism of Classical cities. She has worked extensively within archaeological excavations in Greece (Agora Excavations, Methone Archaeological Project) and Albania (Lofkënd Archaeological Project). Since joining the faculty at University College Dublin in 2007 she also has developed several projects on the connections between food and architecture. In 2016, she published Food and Architecture: At the Table (Bloomsbury). Samantha Martin-McAuliffe completed her PhD in Architecture from the University of Cambridge in 2007. Before that she received an MPhil in the History and Philosophy of Architecture, also from Cambridge. She was a Fulbright Fellow to Greece, and is a graduate of Smith College. As a Registered Professional Archaeologist, Daniel M. Millette maintains a research program on ancient planning techniques and their relevance within contemporary planning models. He has excavated in Gaul and today’s North Africa. Millette has published on Vitruvius, the Roman theatre, the collective memory (in the classical urban context) and Roman planning. He has also directed and co-directed several Studies Abroad sessions in Archaeology and Architectural History in Rome. At the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at the University of British Columbia, Millette taught Theory and Environmental Design History; he presently teaches at Carleton University within in the History and Theory of Architecture program.
