Monica Hellström serves as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at Lund University under The Joint Faculties of Humanities and Theology. Her academic profile centers on interdisciplinary research spanning the Roman Empire's political, cultural, and societal dimensions from the mid-2nd to early 5th century CE.
Her research integrates literary texts, documentary evidence, art objects, and architectural analysis with specific expertise in Cassius Dio's historiography, gold-glass artifacts, building inscriptions, imperial monuments, and Diocletian's reign. Publications frequently focus on Rome and North Africa, though her scholarly scope extends across the entire Roman Empire and neighboring regions. Hellström employs an interdisciplinary methodology examining both textual and material culture to reconstruct ancient societal structures.
She actively contributes to academic instruction through courses including AKSA21 (Classical Archaeology and Ancient History: Level I) and SASH85 (The Emergence of European Culture), maintaining current teaching responsibilities through autumn 2025. Her work is accessible through Lund University's Research Portal, reflecting ongoing scholarly engagement with primary sources across the Mediterranean world.
