The Sara B. Aleshire Center for the Study of Greek Epigraphy was established in 1999 as a campus research facility endowed by the Estate of the late Dr. Sara B. Aleshire, an alumna of AHMA and a distinguished scholar of Greek epigraphy and ancient Greek religion. The purpose of the Center is to encourage and support the research of UCB faculty and graduate students in ancient Greek inscriptions from all regions of the Mediterranean world. To that end, the Center provides funds for 1) research grants for travel to study Greek inscriptions as well as substantial fellowships for UCB graduate students doing epigraphic research; 2) seminars and conferences at UCB to further the study of Greek Epigraphy; and 3) book purchases related to the study of Greek Epigraphy. The Center is part of the Graduate Group in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology and is administered by an Advisory Committee to the Chairman of the Group. The chair of the Advisory Committee is Professor Emily Mackil. The Center is presently housed in 6221 and 6223 Dwinelle Hall and includes a substantial research library in Greek epigraphy, an extensive collection of offprints especially in Greek religion, an archive of photographs of Greek inscriptions and a large collection of squeezes.
