This small volume within the AIAC-proceedings is the result of a panel discussion on diversity in Classical Archaeology, and can be read as a call and pamphlet for more inclusivity and social justice in t he fi eld. In light of t he dismay of many concerning t he initial all-male keynote panel at AIAC2018, the panel was aimed at discussing broader issues concerning diversity and intersectionality in Greco-Roman archaeology. As archaeologists, we have made it one of our principal tasks to bring to the fore ?the people without history' and show a more diverse image of the Greek and Roman past. Then why is this diversity not refl ected in the discipline itself? The all-male panel was symptomatic of more fundamental problems
that the discipline suff ers from, both in terms of gender and its inseparably related issues of whiteness, class, and the ?Classical'. The AIAC-panel proved to be a constructive and empowering meeting ground, where vital matters of inequality and injustice were discussed, as well as the discipline's capability of moving towards a more self-refl exive and socially engaged future. The contributions in this volume count as a refl ection of this fruitful and ongoing debate, which will hopefully lead to more awareness as well as more dialogue.
