Diotíma (formerly Diotima: Materials for the Study of Women and Gender in the Ancient World) is an
online resource about "women, gender, sex, sexualities, race, ethnicity, class, status, masculinity, enslavement, disability, and the intersections among them in the ancient Mediterranean world."[1] It is on the server of
Women's Classical Caucus, and named after
Diotima of Mantinea.[1] It has been favorably reviewed as a resource in the field of
classical studies.[2][3][4][5] Founded in 1995, it was the first online portal about women and gender in the ancient world.[6] It was initially edited by
Suzanne Bonefas and
Ross Scaife; in 2019, Serena Witzke became the editor and moved it to a new
URL.[7]
