SUMMARY:The Earliest Pottery in the World
DESCRIPTION:A lecture hosted by the Long Island Society of the AIA. \nIlaria Patania\, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Washington University in St. Louis will present on “the Earliest Pottery in the World.” \nWhy was pottery invented? While for decades we assumed a connection between plant domestication\, pottery use\, and social hierarchy today we know that the earliest pottery in the world was found in cave sites in South China connected to a hunter and gatherer lifeway at ~20 -19 kya. This is the first example of a wider Eastern Asian hunter gatherer pottery making tradition. In this talk we will discuss the sites of the earliest pottery and explore cooking practices and social structure of the groups that first used pottery. \nJoin via Zoom by this link on November 6th\, 2022 at 11:30 AM EST.  \nMeeting ID: 881 5810 9696\nPasscode: 698547

SUMMARY:Iron in the Sky: Words and Conceptions of Iron and Meteorites in Ancient Egypt
DESCRIPTION:The American Research Center in Egypt\, Northern California Chapter\, and the Near Eastern Studies Department\, University of California\, Berkeley\, invite you to attend a lecture by Dr. Victoria Almansa-Villatoro\, Brown University: \n“Iron in the Sky: Words and Conceptions of Iron and Meteorites in Ancient Egypt” \nSunday\, November 6\, 2022\, 3 PM Pacific Time\nRoom 126 Social Sciences Building (formerly Barrows Hall)\nUC Berkeley \nPlease note that no Zoom meeting is scheduled for this lecture. \nAbout the Lecture: \nThis lecture explores the cultural implications of an ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic sign\, known as N41\, used in an apparently random constellation of words related to women\, water\, and metals. Based on a re-examination of the sign’s contexts of appearance in The Pyramid Texts and other religious sources\, it is determined that an ancient Egyptian cosmovision contemplated the sky as an iron container of water\, pieces of which fell to the earth in the shape of meteors and were used to produce ritual objects. The fact that the N41 sign’s iconicity encapsulated such complex interconnectedness suggests that the relation between birth\, afterlife\, and iron existed even before the earliest religious texts in Egypt. The knowledge of the extraterrestrial provenance of iron was lost at some point in modern times when meteorites were classified along with fossils as “thunderstones” as late as the 18th century. However\, the Egyptian knowledge\, consistent with contemporary science\, was most likely shared with other ancient civilizations that also connected iron and sky in texts. We will examine some examples of non-Egyptian iron-sky cultural parallels\, particularly from the Ancient Near East\, which can be explained as common analysis of natural observations\, rather than knowledge transmission. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Victoria Almansa-Villatoro obtained her Ph.D. in Egyptology at Brown University in 2022. She is a Junior Research Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows (2022-2025) and specializes in the use of language and hieroglyphs’ iconicity to understand oral knowledge and ideology in Old Kingdom Egypt. Since 2019 she is a member of the AERA archaeological project in Giza\, and assistant director to the Royal Necropolis and Pyramids of Nuri Expedition since 2021. \n———— \nParking is available in UC lots all day on weekends\, for a fee.
