SUMMARY:Ritual at the Crossroads: A Sacred Stone in Ancient Athens
DESCRIPTION:Susan Rotroff\, Jarvis Thurston & Mona Van Duyn Professor Emerita\, Washington University\, St. Louis (srotroff@wustl.edu)\nA large\, irregular boulder fenced off by a parapet of stone slabs lies at a crossroads on the north side of the Agora (the public square) of ancient Athens. When excavated\, in the 1970s\, I\, t was covered with hundreds of small vessels\, placed there in the latter part of the 5th century BCE\, along with an eclectic collection of unusual objects\, including gilded pebbles\, knucklebones\, writing styli\, and fragments of broken sculpture. The lecturer and her colleagues at the Agora have embarked on a detailed study of the monument\, now nicknamed the Crossroads Enclosure. Although it was located at one of the busiest spots in the city\, its ancient identity remains a mystery. This lecture examines the architecture\, contents\, position\, and environment of the Enclosure\, looking for clues to that identity and the nature of the rituals and other activities that took place there\, and placing it within its historical context in the turbulent last decades of the 5th century BCE.\nThis lecture is hosted by Knox College in Galesburg\, IL.\nIt will be presented virtually.\nInstructions for accessing the lecture are forthcoming.

SUMMARY:Earthquakes and the Structuring of Greco-Roman Society: the longue durée of human-geological environment relationships in Helike\, Greece (SAIG/GSC Dissertation Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Amanda Gaggioli\, PhD Candidate\, Department of Classics | Stanford Archaeology Center\, Stanford University \nBio: Amanda’s research combines specializations in archaeology\, history\, and ancient languages with environmental sciences\, particularly geoarchaeology and soil micromorphology\, to interpret cultural forms of environmental knowledge\, cultural practices\, landscapes\, and paleoenvironments that factored into societal developments. This combined work accounts for the resilience and political ecology of socio-environmental systems in all aspects of Greco-Roman civilization. \nAbstract: Earthquakes have been linked with societal collapse in various places throughout the past\, most notably in the eastern Mediterranean with the end of the Late Bronze Age (c. 1200 BCE) and the division and decline of the Roman Empire from the fourth to sixth centuries CE. Archaeological evidence of widespread destruction\, complemented by an inflation of historical earthquake records for late Roman contexts\, points to periods of higher seismicity coinciding with political and economic weakening and socio-cultural downturn. However\, since ancient times\, humans living with persistent earthquake hazards have demonstrated forms of resilience. I show how earthquakes traditionally perceived as ‘natural’ disasters are not ‘natural’ but social and a critical factor in political ecological relationships through the case of Helike\, Greece from the third millennium BCE to fifth century CE. New methods from geoarchaeology and soil micromorphology combined with evidence ranging from Greco-Roman perceptions on earthquakes in textual records combined with destruction\, innovation\, and invention in settlement architecture and soft sediment deformation structures (SSDS) in soil thin sections prove such ‘catastrophe’ theories to be either false or simplistic. The results expose the persistent factor of earthquakes and other geological hazards in the resilience and political ecology of human-environment relationships in the Greco-Roman society and culture. \nThe case of Helike demonstrates how factors of earthquakes and other geological hazards persistently shaped and were shaped bysocio-cultural\, economic\, and political developments. The use of innovative methodological approaches and techniques to new types of data confronts catastrophe narratives and reveals a resilience and political ecology of human-earthquake relationships.

SUMMARY:Wine jars and jar makers of Cyprus
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Gloria London (Independent Scholar\, Seattle WA)\nLecture in Memory of Dr. Sarah Keller \nA Danish police officer\, who volunteered for the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus\, spent his spare time documenting traditional technologies\, especially those related to pottery production\, farming\, and bread. Knud Jensen recorded over 60 pitharia\, the immense jars for fermenting wine\, produced for centuries until 1972. He correctly speculated that the names incised on unfired jar shoulders held information about the history of Cyprus. Detective Jensen’s police training successfully enabled him to trace century-old jars back to the people who made and them used. His findings\, combined with more recent ethnoarchaeological research\, provide practical templates to: 1) reconstruct the ancient ceramics industry; 2) assess the markings on archaeological pottery; and 3) explain the multiplicity of traditional and ancient regional terms for essential household items.

SUMMARY:Irving Finkel Returns!  Voices Out of the Darkness
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Irving Finkel returns to Zoom for a talk hosted by Archaeology Now about the “people between the rivers” — the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers\, that is. Were the people of ancient Mesopotamia so very different from us? Did they enjoy a good dinner\, rejoice in love\, fling curses at a faithless spouse\, and quake in fear at the wrath of gods? We are fortunate because we have their most intimate thoughts\, inscribed in clay thousands of years ago\, still accessible to us. Dr. Finkel\, a renowned expert\, unlocks their writing in cuneiform\, opening a dramatic window into the ancient Mesopotamian world\, revealing lives that are every bit as complex and human as are our own lives today.

SUMMARY:Virtual Symposium: 20 Years of Gold on Athena
DESCRIPTION:Join the Parthenon for a virtual talk on Tuesday\, August 23\, at 6 PM Central. This online Symposium is free and open to the public. \nABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM:\nTwenty years ago\, the colossal statue of Athena Parthenos inside the Nashville Parthenon underwent a transformation. After standing as a white statue from 1990-2002\, a team of experts and volunteers added over 8 pounds of gold leaf plus colorful paint details to Athena. Join this Symposium to hear more about the gold gilding process and this incredible project that changed the way millions of Parthenon visitors see ancient statues. \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS:\nMicki and Mitch Cavanah\, Reed’s Gold Leaf \nFor more than 30 years\, Micki and Mitchell Cavanah have been perfecting the fine tradition of gilding (gold leafing) and coordinating with other gilders and craftsmen from related fields to ensure the mutual preservation of the art form of antique & frame restoration. Micki and Mitchell are expert gold gilders and were involved with the project that added gold and paint to the statue of Athena Parthenos in the Naos over the summer of 2002. \nMicki and Mitchell are long-time members of the prestigious Society of Gilders\, of which Micki has previously served as Vice-President and currently serves on the board of trustees. Both are well-respected educators in the arts of restoration and gilding who have worked on famous sites all over the United States including the Louisiana State Museum\, Chicago’s Glessner House\, and memorials in Washington DC including the Iwo Jima Memorial and Marconi Memorial.

SUMMARY:Consumed in Raging Fire: Cremation Burial in Ptolemaic Alexandria
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 virtual lecture by Dr. Thomas Landvatter\, University of Michigan: \nConsumed in Raging Fire: Cremation Burial in Ptolemaic Alexandria \nSunday\, August 28\, 2022\, 3 PM Pacific Time \nZoom Lecture. A registration link will be automatically sent to ARCE-NC members. Non-members may request a registration link by sending email with your name and email address to arcencZoom@gmail.com. Non-members\, please send any registration requests no later than Friday\, August 26. The number of registrations is limited\, so the sooner you register\, the better. \nGlenn Meyer\nARCE-NC ePublicity \nAbout the Lecture: \nMummification is\, of course\, the burial practice most associated with ancient Egypt. It may come as a surprise\, then\, that for a period of time cremation – the very antithesis of mummification – is attested in Egypt. During the Ptolemaic period (305-30 BCE)\, when Egypt was ruled by a dynasty of Graeco-Maedonian origin\, it is clear that mummification remained the burial treatment of choice for many elite classes across Egypt. However\, a significant minority of burials in the capital of Alexandria and elsewhere were in fact cremations. In this talk\, I explore the cremation burials of Ptolemaic Alexandria\, who used cremation and why\, and what cremation reveals about the cultural and social environment of that city. I argue that these cremation burials and their meaning can only be understood in relation to Egyptian mummification and other cultural practices\, as well as the unique social and cultural environment of early Alexandria. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Tom Landvatter (PhD\, Interdepartmental Program in Classical Art and Archaeology\, University of Michigan)\, is Associate Professor of Greek\, Latin\, and Ancient Mediterranean Studies and Humanities at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon. His teaching and research interests center on the history and archaeology of the eastern Mediterranean during the Hellenistic period (323-30 BCE)\, in particular Cyprus and Ptolemaic Egypt. He has excavated in Egypt at both Mendes and\, especially\, Abydos\, which has been an ongoing focus of his research and publications. Currently he co-directs an excavation at the Hellenistic fortification of Vigla\, near Larnaca\, Cyprus. \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://arce-nc.org/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, or https://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:Funerary Papyri as Social Reflections of the Living and the Dead
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. Marissa A. Stevens\, UCLA: \nFunerary Papyri as Social Reflections of the Living and the Dead \nSunday\, September 11\, 2022\, 3 PM Pacific Time\nRoom 20 Social Sciences Building (formerly Barrows Hall)\nUC Berkeley \nPlease note that no Zoom meeting is scheduled for this lecture. \nGlenn Meyer\nARCE-NC Publicity Director \nAbout the Lecture: \nTwenty-first Dynasty funerary papyri – consisting of texts and images from the Book of the Dead\, the many Underworld Books\, and other cosmographic scenes – have always fascinated Egyptologists for what they reveal about Egyptian afterlife beliefs and their understanding and conceptualization of the underworld. But these documents are also social objects. The creation\, ownership\, and use of these papyri can shed much light about the deceased who reap the religious benefit of the texts and on the family of the deceased\, who also benefit from these objects in social and ideological ways. Studying these papyri as objects of social life\, we can learn about temple life\, titles and rank\, family structure\, inheritance\, and social status of the deceased and the families they left behind. Funerary papyri were therefore used as a form of social competition\, and reveal much about the mindset of the elite priests of 21st Dynasty Thebes. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Marissa Stevens is the Assistant Director of the Pourdavoud Center for the Study of the Iranian World. Trained as an Egyptologist who studies the materiality\, social history\, and texts of the Third Intermediate Period and Late Period\, she completed her Ph.D. at the University of California\, Los Angeles\, in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures. Combining art historical and linguistic approaches\, her research interests focus on how objects can solidify\, maintain\, and perpetuate social identity\, especially in times of crisis when more traditional means of self-identification are absent. \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://arce-nc.org/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, or https://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:Donald P. Ryan: “In the Footsteps of Howard Carter in the Valley of the Kings”
DESCRIPTION:The archaeological exploration of ancient Egypt’s royal New Kingdom cemetery\,\nthe Valley of the Kings\, offers a rich history of fascinating discoveries made by determined\nand often eccentric individuals including Howard Carter\, who was well involved in the\nValley decades before he encountered the tomb of Tutankhamun in 1922. In this lecture\,\nDon Ryan will describe some of his own work in the Valley of the Kings during which he\nliterally followed in the footsteps of Carter\, including the re-excavation of three tombs\ndiscovered by the famed archaeologist early in his career. One tomb is especially\ncontroversial with its occupant identified by some as the female ruler\, Hatshepsut\, after its\nrediscovery by Ryan.

SUMMARY:Musical Performance and Talk on the Rock Gongs of Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Percussionist Jesse Stewart will give us a live demonstration on his lithograph as well as a talk on early instruments and music. This will be followed by a lecture on the rock gongs of Sudan by Yahia Fadl Tahir\, who sends the following abstract:\nRock gongs are naturally situated rock that resonate when struck and show evidence of use as an idiophone. Rock gongs are mostly found in Africa\, but also in other contexts. Rock gongs are common features in Sudan e.g.\, in the north\, 3rd cataract region.\nTo investigate the rock gongs in our region\, their archaeological contexts\, surviving traditions\, and ritual practice in the vicinity of these rocks were studied.\nIn the archaeological context\, it is observed that 46% of rock gong sites are associated with Neolithic occupations\, 62% with Kerma occupations\, 23% with Christian cross drawings\, 15% near churches (KBD 019 and MAS 031) and 69% of rock gongs are associated with rock drawings of animals.\nMany traditions\, ceremonies\, and rituals were practiced on rocks from different parts of the Third Cataract Region along the Nile. Ritual practices and ceremonies performed are wind-making\, protection from the devil\, marriage ceremonies\, and circumcision ceremonies.

SUMMARY:Virtual Symposium: Pandora & Polychromy on the Base of Athena
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free virtual talk on Monday\, September 19\, at 6 PM Central. This Virtual Symposium is free and open to the public. \nABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM:\nThe ancient writer Pausanias said that the base of the statue of Athena inside the Parthenon was a scene of Pandora. But what exactly did it look like? Maria Sellers will share her research into Pandora on the base of Athena and show her project to provide a clear visual description of the famous Pandora scene. Through her color restoration we will see what an Acropolis visitor might have seen 2\,500 years ago! \nABOUT THE SPEAKER:\nMaria Sellers is a graduate student at George Washington University. She conducted her senior thesis at Vanderbilt University with Dr. Betsey A. Robinson and has presented her research and findings at the Archaeological Institute of America Annual Meetings.
