The Mediterranean Archaeological Trust (MAT) invites applications for  grants, made on a competitive basis, for expenses in 2024, in the preparation for final publication of material from archaeological excavation or fieldwork in the Mediterranean world.

Within the terms of the Trust, priority may be given to publication of Mediterranean sites but the trust funds research from a diversity of sites and eras. Grants for any amount, however small, will be considered, provided they expedite publication. The grants do not normally exceed £2,500.

Due to operational constraints, no grants were awarded in 2022. As such, the Trustees will consider awarding a greater number of grants in the 2023 grant cycle than normal (the exact number will depend on a range of factors including the availability of funds, the number (and quality) of applications received, and the total grant requests).

Please note that the trust is operating on a different timeline to previous years, with grant applications accepted until 27th November 2023.

Please see the Applications page for further details about the grants and the grant application process. Please see the Featured work page for examples of previously funded research.
