SUMMARY:What the Heck is Archaeology?
DESCRIPTION:“Join us for a quick and dirty intro to archaeology! This talk covers a broad overview of Florida’s history\, and how archaeological research can uncover new knowledge about the past\, confirm what we know\, or challenge what we think we know. We’ll also be learning about how different subfields of archaeology work\, and what it takes to become an archaeologist! \nThe subject will be South Florida which has been an incredible place to live for about 14\,000 years. How have people been using the landscape of the Keys from this period to modern day? In this lecture\, Florida Public Archaeology Network will discuss the archaeology of the Florida Keys\, including what tools\, food\, animals\, and people would have used and encountered in the past. There will also be a brief overview of modern work in the area\, including current research being undertaken by universities in Florida. \nMalachi Fenn\, MA\, RPA – Before becoming Public Archaeologist for FPAN’s Southeast Region\, Malachi Fenn worked on cultural resource management (CRM) and museum projects throughout South Florida. They earned their B.A. in Anthropology from New College of Florida. A lifelong visual artist\, Malachi has provided archaeological illustrations for numerous publications. Their specializations include Florida pre-colonial and historical archaeology\, museum collections care\, and scientific illustration.” \nThe Matecumbe Historical Trust’s next free presentation will be held on Tuesday\, October 17th at the Islamorada Library\, mile marker 81.5 starting at 6 pm. This presentation is free and open to the public. For more information call Barbara at 305-393-0940.

SUMMARY:Stone Vaulting in the Pre-Modern Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Sara Galletti\, “Stone Vaulting in the Pre-Modern Mediterranean” \nTHIS LECTURE IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. If you’re interested in archaeology\, please join us! \nAbout the lecture:\nThis talk will explore the history of a stone vaulting technique called stereotomy from a transnational\, longue durée perspective across the Mediterranean from the third century BCE—when the oldest of known stereotomic vaults was built in the Sanctuary of Delphi—through the sixteenth and seventeenth century\, when pioneering theoretical works such as those by Philibert de L’Orme (1514–70) and Alonso de Vandelvira (1544–1626) crossed the boundaries of the building trades and stereotomy became the focus of a broader intellectual debate about solid geometry. The complex\, fascinating history of stereotomy offers a privileged perspective on the cultural and material exchanges that have taken place\, across spatial\, linguistic\, and chronological boundaries\, in the long history of the Mediterranean and its peoples. \nAbout the speaker:\nDr. Sara Galletti\, Associate Professor of Art History at Duke University\, researches early modern architectural theory and practice\, with a focus on Europe and the Mediterranean. She has published on secular and religious French architecture\, on Philibert de L’Orme\, on the urban history of Paris\, on the relations between space and social structures\, as well as on the history of stereotomy. Currently\, she works on an NEH-funded book project tentatively titled History of Stone Vaulting in the Pre-Modern Mediterranean: Practices\, Theories\, and Patterns of Knowledge Transfer. \nOur lectures are sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America\, with funding from the Davidson College Public Lectures Committee\, the Dean Rusk Program\, and the departments of Africana Studies\, Anthropology\, Art\, Classics\, Educational Studies\, History\, and Latin American Studies.\nPlease support us by joining the Archaeological Institute of America for $50 (students $25)\, which includes a subscription to Archaeology magazine.
