We are looking for a colleague to join the Centre for the Digital Research of Religion at the Department for the Study of Religions in the position of a postdoctoral researcher focusing on mathematical modelling of data and statistics within the Czech Science Foundation Junior Star project Socio-Spatial Situatedness of Roman Professions and its Impact on Religion in the Roman Empire: A Formal Modeling Approach (SIPROME). The SIPROME project investigates how professions and the socio-environmental and geographical situatedness of work environments in the ancient Roman Empire contributed to the spatial spread of ancient cults. Using computational methods, the project examines how the occupational risks faced by inhabitants of the Roman Empire influenced their choice of preferred cults. The main methods used in the project include spatial analysis, predictive modelling, statistics, and the analysis of geocoded data, especially of epigraphic and archaeological origin.
