David Gordon Mitten's dedication to the study of archaeology and classical art left an indelible mark on Harvard and the field of classical studies.
Throughout his long career at Harvard, Mitten's efforts in both teaching and excavation helped to illuminate the significance of ancient art and artifacts.
As an archaeologist, Mitten was noted for his discovery of a Roman-era synagogue in Sardis, which illustrated his long-term commitment to exploring ancient cultures.
His scholarly contributions, particularly his work on the terracotta figurines and his leadership at the Sardis excavations, played a crucial role in advancing our understanding of classical archaeology.
