SUMMARY:From Berlin to Berkeley: The History of the Edward Gans Collection of Seals and Its Hidden Gems – a Ellen and Charles S. La Follette Lecture
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures currently houses the Edward Gans Collection of Seals\, comprising almost seven hundred seals and seal-related objects from a variety of periods\, extending from the Neolithic Middle East to Post-classical Mesoamerica. Since 2023\, a new team of Berkeley scholars has been working on the collection to prepare it for digital publication\, and this talk arises from the provenance research undertaken as part of that project. This talk will highlight the fascinating story of how the Gans Collection came to be and the legacy of Nazi persecution that shaped the collection’s history\, while also featuring several Sasanian seals in the collection of particular significance. This is one of the annual Ellen and Charles S. La Follette Lectures.
