SUMMARY:Walking Among Pharaohs: The Spectacular Career of Archaeologist George Reisner in Egypt and Nubia
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the fourth and final lecture in The World Between: Egypt and Nubia in Africa series\, sponsored by the Page-Barbour Committee\, the Archaeological Institute of America and the Interdisciplinary Program in Archaeology. \nOur speaker is Peter Der Manuelian\, Barbara Bell Professor of Egyptology in the Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations and the Anthropology Departments at Harvard University\, and director of the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East. Specializing in Egyptology\, he is also the director of the Giza Project run by Harvard University. Among his recent work is Walking Among Pharaohs: George Reisner and The Dawn of Modern Egyptology\, which explores Reisner’s problematic legacy in Egyptological thought about Africa. \nThe lecture examines the life and work of America’s greatest Egyptian archaeologist\, George Reisner (1867-1942). His legacy of forty-three years of breathtakingly successful excavations at twenty-three different archaeological sites in Egypt and Sudan (ancient Nubia) included pyramids\, colossal statues\, gold jewelry\, decorated tomb chapels\, temples\, settlements\, fortresses\, ceramics\, furniture\, stone vessels\, and hieroglyphic inscriptions everywhere. Leading the Harvard University-Boston Museum of Fine Arts Expedition\, Reisner put American Egyptology on the world stage. The talk presents Reisner’s undeniable impact and considers his life within the context of Western colonialism\, racism\, and nationalism. It will also explore new visualization technologies\, particularly at the Giza Pyramids\, that Reisner’s work makes possible today. \nOnline only\, please register in the link below.

SUMMARY:Gray Area: Different Eyes—Abstraction in Celtic Coins
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered why some ancient cultures do not seem as “skilled” as later societies in representing the natural world? If so\, you are not alone. Many people assume that early art history is a story of technical progress toward better reproductions of reality. But what if it is less a matter of skill than of interest? Celtic coins offer a perfect opportunity to explore this idea. Join coins curator Laure Marest for this hands-on session with 2\,300-year-old coins and discover the ancient Gallic fascination with abstraction. \nThe seminar is held in conjunction with the special exhibition Celtic Art Across the Ages (March 6–August 2\, 2026).
