Abstract

Listen to Ethan’s PhD application story.

Ethan is a PhD candidate in Classics and Ancient History at the University of Liverpool. Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, his research examines the nature of land warfare in ancient Ionia and Lycia (two case study regions in modern day Türkiye) to offer a cross comparison with the popular hoplite infantryman of ancient Greece, thereby joining a new academic movement which seeks to situate the origin and development of hoplite warfare within its broader Mediterranean context. He is also a member of the Milesian Tales research group, a student representative for the NWCDTP, and has recently completed work with the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds.
