SUMMARY:Archaeology Day
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 18th is International Archaeology Day\, and the Frontier Culture Museum is offering archaeological activities all day! \nBut just what is archaeology and why are we talking about it at a living history museum? Archaeology is the study of patterns of material culture\, the tangible things that people made and used. Things that are still around\, just in the ground beneath us. Archaeology gives us a snapshot of the past. Objects enter the ground\, a house decays leaving only the foundation. We only get to see the remnants\, not the activity. History\, on the other hand\, is the study of human behavior in the past\, based on the records people themselves have left behind. You can see where one might inform the other. Both involve asking questions\, forming hypotheses and doing research. \nWe look at all of these clues\, carefully piece the fragments of a moment in time together\, and create a picture of what life was like\, for example\, on the frontier.

SUMMARY:Reading Matthew’s Gospel in the Cemeteries of Roman Syria and Judea
DESCRIPTION:Why does the Gospel of Matthew prefer a different word for burials\, taphoi\, than the other New Testament gospels? And why does Matthew consistently revise his sources to describe Jesus’s burial as costly? Matthew emphasizes that Jesus was anointed with expensive spices and buried in a rich patron’s new tomb\, which makes it appear as though he wanted to portray Jesus as receiving an elite burial. If\, however\, we read Matthew’s descriptions of burials in light of archaeological evidence of changing mortuary practices in provincial Syria and Judea\, where the gospel was composed sometime in the late first century\, his motives appear more complicated. Quick though he is to indicate that Jesus received a rich man’s burial\, Matthew is clear that this did not include any of the lavish displays of status that were increasingly common on elite tombs in Matthew’s context. Through a critical analysis of both text and funerary archaeology\, this presentation explores how the author of Matthew and his earliest audiences responded to and participated in cultural and socioeconomic changes induced by geopolitical shifts in the Roman East. \nBiography\nDr. Tony Keddie is Associate Professor of Ancient Mediterranean Religions and Fellow of the Ronald Nelson Smith Chair in Classics and Christian Origins at the University of Texas at Austin. An award-winning social historian\, Keddie’s interdisciplinary research focuses on the intersections of religion and economics in the Roman East\, particularly among Jews and Christians in Judea and Asia Minor. He is the author of four books\, including Class and Power in Roman Palestine; co-editor of five books\, including Revelation and Material Religion in the Roman East; and author of more than two dozen articles. \nRegistration required.
