SUMMARY:Prehistoric Cave Art of Spain & France
DESCRIPTION:Travel with world-renowned archaeological author Paul Bahn\, a gifted and popular lecturer who regularly leads tours to study the prehistory of Spain and France\, including this program. Dr. Bahn will enhance your understanding of the sites with lectures and informal discussions. Investigate southwestern Europe’s most extraordinary prehistoric caves\, including Lascaux IV\, a new\, exact reproduction of one of the most remarkable prehistoric sites ever discovered; Altamira II\, a precise replica of the original that is often called the “Sistine Chapel of Prehistoric Art”; Atapuerca\, the most significant early human site in western Europe; Las Monedas Cave and Cueva del Castillo\, where 455 animal likenesses were painted and engraved some 22\,000-14\,000 years ago\, but other motifs such as hand stencils and red dots have been dated to more than 40\,000 years ago\, meaning that they may well have been made by Neanderthals; Cougnac\, which features paintings of extinct megaloceros and mammoth; Pech Merle\, known for its “negative handprints”; and others.

SUMMARY:Vietnam & Cambodia: Cruising the Mekong River
DESCRIPTION:Archaeological Institute of America lecturer and host Joyce C. White will share insights with you throughout this journey. Dr. White has worked in Southeast Asian archaeology since the mid-1970s and currently directs a field-based archaeological research program in Laos that focuses on the history and prehistory of the Mekong Basin. She is co-director of the Middle Mekong Archaeological Project (MMAP) and Director of the University of Pennsylvania Museum’s Ban Chiang Project. Since 1987 Dr.\nWhite has been a researcher and associate curator at the Penn Museum\, and she is now adjunct Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania.

Dr. White has been a lecturer on seven previous tours to Laos\, Vietnam\, Cambodia\, Thailand\, and Myanmar\, including four times with the AIA on this very Mekong Princess program since 2016. During our trip\, she will discuss the culture\, history\, and prehistory of the Mekong River Basin\, the world’s twelfth longest river\, and the main artery for mainland Southeast Asia for communication\, trade\, and population movements for thousands of years. She will also discuss the ancient and historic trade networks that linked Southeast Asia to the rest of the Old World\, and the origins of Southeast Asian civilizations\, with a particular focus on the Khmer Empire. Her most popular lectures are about current archaeological research at Angkor\, and about her experience as an expert witness for a US Justice Department case on smuggling of Asian antiquities. Highlights include\, spending seven nights aboard the elegant MEKONG PRINCESS; Taking two full days to explore awe-inspiring ANGKOR\, including the mighty Angkor Wat; Attending a performance of APSARA\, a classical Khmer dance; Catching glimpses of the region’s unique RIVER VILLAGE lifestyle and Enjoying rides on local SAMPANS\, CYCLOS\, and TUK TUKS

SUMMARY:The Ancient Geopolitics of Cyprus: with the Honourable Michalis S. Firillas\, Consul General of the Republic of Cyprus
DESCRIPTION:The Archaeology Committee feels privileged that the Honourable Michalis S. Firillas\, Cypriot Consul General\, addresses the National Arts Club in celebration of International Archaeology Day. The mythological island birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite located in the middle of the eastern Mediterranean\, Cyprus is a crossroads between East and West\, North and South. Over many millennia\, this fascinating country rich in natural resources with three extraordinary UNESCO sites has greatly contributed to archaeological knowledge. Too important to be ignored by the dominant regional empires yet unable fully to assert itself independently\, Cyprus nurtured a local synthesis of cultures\, languages\, politics\, technologies.
