Which is also pretty true when you are thinking in terms of the Classicists who have national or international profiles - for better or worse - mostly ancient historians. I wonder if that's the public-facing nature of the field of history coming through?
I don't have statistics to back this up, but my sense is that Classics as a field is probably around 40% philology, 35% archaeology and maybe 15% ancient history (with the rest epigraphy, paleography, papyrology, etc.)? Just going from conferences, etc.
