Thea Ravasi

Research Associate, Newcastle University

Thea Ravasi is an archaeologist specialising in Roman architecture, urbanism, and trade. Her recent research explores imperial architecture by refining the distinctions between early- to mid-imperial and late antique, as well as Roman traditional and early Christian building practices. This work unfolds across three interrelated strands: the role of thermal and baptismal architecture in the West; the economy of imperial construction and procurement; and the design and spatial organisation of imperial court spaces.
