SUMMARY:Oman & the UAE: Crossroads of the Indian Ocean & Arabian Gulf with optional\, pre-tour extension to Qatar!
DESCRIPTION:Delve into the cultural and geographical diversity of Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the company of seasoned study leader Trevor Marchand. Our custom-designed itinerary highlights ancient sites and historical monuments\, and helps illustrate how influential geography has been on the region’s history and how the region’s maritime history has linked it to elsewhere in Arabia and as far as Africa and southern Asia. Begin with three full days in the UAE. Still a little fishing village as of the 18th century\, Dubai was a center of pearl exports until the 1930s. Similarly\, Abu Dhabi was founded as a simple pearl and fishing village. After the discovery of oil in the Arabian Gulf\, Dubai became one of the wealthiest cities in the world\, and Abu\nDhabi was transformed into a luxurious modern metropolis and the capital of the UAE. But this region was settled many centuries earlier\, and we will observe how the old and the new co-exist in intriguing ways. Spend the balance of our time exploring Oman\, which dominated for centuries the maritime trade routes from Moorish Spain to Canton (modern-day Guangzhou\, China). Her seafaring merchants traded in such commodities of civilization as frankincense\, myrrh\, silk\, gold\, spices\, and coffee. Today\, Oman takes pride in sharing its rich history with visitors\, as demonstrated in its world-class museums. Altogether we will learn about these countries’ histories\, cultures\, art\, and architecture while witnessing their great geographical diversity\, from spectacular\ndeserts and wadis to pristine coastlines\, including a reserve for the endangered green sea turtle.

SUMMARY:“Discoveries at Cooper’s Ferry Increase our Knowledge of Early PNW Peoples” by Loren G. Davis PhD\, Department of Anthropology\, Oregon State University
DESCRIPTION:Archaeological excavations at the Cooper’s Ferry site reveal a long record of repeated human occupation beginning sometime before 15\,785 cal BP and extending to ~2\,000 years ago. This site\, which is the location of an ancient village known to the Nez Perce Indian Tribe as Nipéhe\, bears the earliest well-dated evidence of people in the Pacific Northwest and is one of the best lines of proof about early peoples in the Americas. In this presentation\, we will review the basis for how the age of the site has been established and how the archaeological record there informs our understanding of what the early period of human presence looks like and where else such evidence might be found in the Pacific Northwest.   \nThe lecture will broadcast in realtime via Zoom.\nJoin Meeting: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84120684037?pwd=clk3Tjh1RlRlbmd6OTdJNzFsUDhRQT09\nMeeting ID: 841 2068 4037\nPasscode: 004215
