With great sadness we announce the death of Ioannis Touloumakos, Emeritus Professor of Ancient History at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, on whose initiative Tekmeria was founded in 1995.

His scholarship, in synthetic works and specialised studies alike, was devoted above all to the social and political history of the ancient world.

The Editorial Board of Tekmeria and the Department of Greek and Roman History of the Institute of Historical Research extend their condolences to his family, his students, and his colleagues.
