SUMMARY:AIA Talk by Dr. Kathleen Sheppard: How Winning a Woman of Study Can Be in Early American Egyptology
DESCRIPTION:As Amelia Edwards and Kate Bradbury finished their lecture tour of the United States in 1891\, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle wrote: “Miss Edwards’ visit will do a great deal of good in teaching the men of America how learned and how winning a woman of study can be and in teaching the women of America what an authority in art\, archaeology and history one of their sex can become” (March 19\, 1891). Over the next few decades\, two American women in particular seemed to take this to heart: Emma Andrews and Caroline Ransom Williams. Arguably influenced by the work of Edwards and Bradbury\, both Andrews and Ransom Williams built and managed collections of artifacts that tens of millions of museum-goers have visited over the last 125 years. This talk will detail their lives and demonstrate the impact of women’s work in American Egyptology.

SUMMARY:Gods\, Warriors\, and Stars: A Close Relationship in Chichén Itzá
DESCRIPTION:María Teresa Uriarte Castañeda\, Researcher\, Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas\, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) \nChichén Itzá—a World Heritage Site—is the most important archaeological record of the fusion between Maya and the so-called Toltec civilizations in the Yucatan Peninsula. The site’s monuments\, dating to the 10th–15th centuries\, showcase both Maya and foreign architectural elements\, and have been the subject of multiple investigations and interpretations. In this lecture\, María Teresa Uriarte Castañeda will discuss the columns and bas-relief sculptures from the Temple of Warriors\, depicting deities\, warriors\, feathered serpents and other serpents\, interacting with celestial bodies\, such as the Sun\, the Moon\, and Venus. Uriarte’s analysis will highlight how this iconography reflects the political\, social\, and religious unrest of the Late Classic period in Mesoamerica (600–900 AD)\, and the new worldviews that developed during this period. \nFree admission. Free event parking at the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Presented by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology and the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture in collaboration with the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies and the Moses Mesoamerican Archive\, Harvard University.

SUMMARY:Radical Sovereignty: Documenting Indigenous Autonomy Across Indian Country During the Boarding School Era
DESCRIPTION:Over the course of the nineteenth and early twentieth century\, the U.S. federal government engaged in a systematic project of conquest through civilization. A key facet of this imperial endeavor by the imposition of Western forms of architecture onto Indigenous landscapes\, including day and boarding schools. These concrete structures were accompanied by assimilationist policies that imposed the English language\, Christianity\, sedentism\, agriculture\, nuclear households\, and “civilized dress” onto Indigenous people. While day and boarding schools were part of an oppressive colonial system\, these institutions also existed within a broader set of everyday place-making practices informed by Indigenous cultural values and goals.\nCollectively\, Native place-making practices represent what Laura Harjo calls “radical sovereignty”; spatial expressions of Indigenous worldviews that ensured community futurity. Drawing on archival evidence from the Bureau of Indian Affairs\, the Jesse\nH. Bratley collections at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science\, and object-based interviews conducted with tribal members\, I document acts of radical sovereignty on the Rosebud reservation in South Dakota and the Cheyenne and Arapaho reserve in Oklahoma. This comparative approach points to the central role of mobility and kinship networks in facilitating Lakota\, Cheynne\, and Arapaho autonomy and the collective survival of these communities.

SUMMARY:The Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks and World Heritage
DESCRIPTION:Ohio’s Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks are enormous earthen enclosures\, many in precise geometric shapes\, that were built 2\,000 years ago by Native Americans known today as the Hopewell. Their creators designed the earthworks as places of ceremony\, connecting them to the cosmos by aligning them with carefully observed movements of the moon and sun\, including those of an 18.6-year lunar cycle. Dr. Brad Lepper (Ohio History Connection) and Chief Glenna Wallace (Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma) will discuss the history\, function\, astonishing complexity\, and contemporary Indigenous views of the earthworks on the occasion of their recent designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site—the first in Ohio and 25th in the United States. Wallace and Lepper both participated in preparing the UNESCO nomination\, the result of a multi-year effort by a broad group of partners.\nTHIS PROGRAM IS MADE POSSIBLE IN PART BY OHIO HUMANITIES\, A STATE AFFILIATE OF THE NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES

SUMMARY:“Hercules and Holy Water” (Professor Ann Glennie)
DESCRIPTION:While in the common imagination\, Hercules might be most well known for his heroic deeds and feats of strength\, across the ancient Mediterranean he was also a deity closely associated with fresh water. In one of his canonical labors in Greece\, he dug canals to redirect the Alpheus and Peneus rivers to clean out the notoriously filthy stables of Augeus. In yet another Greek labor\, he cleared the deadly birds from the banks of the Stymphalian Lake to make this body of water and the surrounding countryside safe to its inhabitants once more. During his exploits in Italy\, he was responsible for the creation of several freshwater springs across the peninsula. And even the story of his defeat of the monster Cacus in the area which would become Rome’s Forum Boarium\, or cattle market\, reveals his long term connection with the economically important Tiber River. At the colony of Cosa\, founded by the Romans in southern Tuscany in 273 BCE\, Hercules was also a crucial figure. This settlement had no natural source of water and therefore utilized rainwater harvesting to provide this vital resource to the colony. The colony’s chief temple\, which had its own water cistern\, appears to have been dedicated to Hercules\, in part because of his freshwater associations\, if not also for his association with salubrity via water.

SUMMARY:When Democracies Vote to Overthrow Themselves: Lessons from Classical Athens.
DESCRIPTION:Democracy most often ends not with a violent spasm\, but with a vote.\nOligarchic challengers leverage their small numbers to coordinate dis-informing campaigns\, hoping that enough citizens will withhold their support for democratic rule. Already in the fifth- and fourth-centuries BCE\, Greek democracies experimented with strategies to overcome these problems\, such as the Solonian law against political neutrality and tyrant-killing legislation.\nThis talk will demonstrate the continuing relevance of ancient political theory and practice to contemporary democratic politics. \nAbout the speaker:\nProf. Robert Sobak (Bowdoin College\, USA) is a Greek historian researching the emergence of collective intelligence among laborers in Democratic Athens. \nThe AIA has selected this talk as one of the “Alan Boegehold Lectures in Athenian Archaeology and Letters” for the academic year 2024/2025.

DESCRIPTION:In-person lecture\nSaturday\, November 9\, 3:30 pm EST\nPenn Museum\, Classroom 2 \nSpeaker: Dr. Chelsea Kaufman \nTitle: No Ordinary Dogs: Canine Behavior in Theban Tombs \nAbstract:\nThe wall scenes of the rock-cut Theban tombs of the New Kingdom are filled with richly painted imagery that captures the lives and beliefs of the people who built them\, offering modern viewers a window through which to recognize and relate to a distant past. Depictions of familiar animals abound in tomb scenes\, but perhaps no animal is more familiar to a modern viewer than the domestic dog. Scholars have long been drawn to and commented on canine imagery in Egyptian tombs\, often remarking on their proficiency as hunting hounds and their status as beloved companions\, many of which were endearingly named and shown alongside the tomb owner receiving offerings. But is there more to the icon than a testament to a cherished pet? Past approaches to dogs in Egyptian art have taken an anthropocentric view\, focusing on what dogs tell us about the lives of people while ignoring the animal’s unique ethology. As this talk will show\, applying an ethological approach to the images of dogs in tomb scenes can offer a nuanced understanding of the dog’s role within the scenes and the scene itself. \nSpeaker Bio:\nDr. Chelsea L. Kaufman recently received her Ph.D in Near Eastern Studies from Johns Hopkins University. Her dissertation research centered on representations of domestic dogs in 18th Dynasty Theban tombs\, applying an ethological approach to better understand the role that dogs played both in funerary art and society. Kaufman holds a master’s degree in archaeology from Yale and a bachelor’s degree in art from Moravian University\, focusing on studio art\, art history\, and archaeology. She has 10 years of archaeological survey\, excavation\, and illustration experience within and outside of Egypt including the Mut Temple Precinct in Karnak\, Deir el-Medina\, the Outer Hebrides\, and various historic and prehistoric sites throughout northeastern Pennsylvania and Alabama. Kaufman’s interests are varied\, being involved in an ongoing experimental Egyptian metalworking project both before and during her dissertation research. Kaufman is currently working on publishing her dissertation and expanding on topics within it through a series of upcoming articles. \n***************************\nRegistration is NOT required.

SUMMARY:Harry’s Bracelet: a Canadian battlefield archaeology case study
DESCRIPTION:A bracelet found in a slit trench in Normandy in 2014 led to the identification of Harry Edward Fox\, a Canadian Gunner who fought during the Second World War and returned to Canada. Denis Renaud identified this soldier in 2017 and connected with his family. Harry passed away in 2005. This discovery is a case study for Battlefield Archaeology in Canada.

SUMMARY:Age of Wolf and Wind: The Viking World and the Norse Settlement of the North Atlantic
DESCRIPTION:The Vikings continue to fascinate us because their compelling stories connect with universal human desires for exploration and adventure. In Age of Wolf and Wind: Voyages through the Viking World\, Dr. Davide Zori (Baylor University) argues that recent advances in excavation and archaeological science\, coupled with a re-evaluation of oral traditions and written sources\, inspire the telling of new and engaging stories that further our understanding of the Viking Age. Drawing upon his fieldwork experience across the Viking world\, he proposes that the best method for weaving together these narratives is a balanced\, interdisciplinary approach that integrates history\, archaeology\, and new scientific techniques. The dialogues he creates between these three separate data sets result in an entanglement of confirmation (texts\, archaeology\, and science affirming the same story)\, contradiction (texts\, archaeology\, and science telling incompatible stories) and complementarity (texts\, archaeology\, and science contributing mutually enriching stories). This optimistic yet critical treatment of the sources allows for a holistic picture of the Viking Age to emerge. This lecture presents the general arguments of Dr. Zori’s book before offering a case study of this approach from his research on Viking Age Iceland. He examines the Viking experience in Iceland through the discoveries and excavations of the Mosfell Archaeological Project (MAP) in Iceland’s Mosfell Valley. His team’s work brings together the disciplines of archaeology\, history\, saga studies\, osteology\, zoology\, paleobotany\, genetics\, isotope studies\, place-names studies\, environmental science\, and historical architecture. The decade-long research of MAP has led to the discovery of an exceptionally well-preserved Viking chieftain’s farmstead\, including a longhouse\, a pagan cremation site\, a conversion-era stave church\, and a Christian graveyard. The results of this interdisciplinary work offer a new view into the Viking Age in Iceland.

SUMMARY:Children in Context: How Mortuary Contexts Inform our Understanding of the Past
DESCRIPTION:Lecture by Dr. Erin Bornemann\, Director of Information Management for the Colorado Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. The mortuary record affords archaeologists a unique snapshot in time and space\, providing further information surrounding the larger social context of death and burial in archaeological contexts that are often not discernible from other non-burial settings. Studies of such contexts provide material evidence for objects the deceased may have used in life\, but more certainly for objects that the living found significant to include with the deceased in their final resting place. This lecture will present archaeological case studies based on the author’s research in Coastal California and Sudan that demonstrate cross-cultural differences in the expression of death and burial\, with a specific focus on an underrepresented portion of most burial populations: children. Using lenses of materiality\, personhood\, and childhood\, this lecture will discuss how these two cultural spheres—vastly different in time\, space\, and material culture—took great care in the burials of children in their communities\, and how these burial contexts can inform our knowledge regarding the ascription of personhood in these societies.

SUMMARY:Archives in the Crocodile: The Tebtunis Crocodile Papyri As the Missing Link between Ptolemaic and Roman Notarial Practices
DESCRIPTION:The American Research Center in Egypt\, Northern California chapter\, and the UC Berkeley Department of Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures invite you to attend a lecture by Leah Packard-Grams\, UC Berkeley: \nArchives in the Crocodile: The Tebtunis Crocodile Papyri\nAs the Missing Link between Ptolemaic and Roman Notarial Practices \nSunday November 17\, 2024\, 3 PM  Pacific Standard Time\nRoom 56 Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley \nThis in-person lecture will not be virtual or recorded.\nNo registration is required for the lecture. \nAbout the Lecture: \nOne of the most important finds of Egyptian papyri was discovered entirely by accident. An Egyptian workman (whose name the excavators do not report) broke open a crocodile mummy he had found while digging\, and beneath the linen mummy bandages were hidden papyrus archives that reveal the history of the “lost century” of ancient Egypt. The documents found stashed inside the 36 votive crocodile mummies at the site of Tebtunis are everyday papers\, but their value and uniqueness is hard to overstate: The texts are from the 1st century BCE\, a time when Egypt’s documentary record plummets. In this century\, Egypt was in its last decades of native rule under Cleopatra’s father Ptolemy XII\, and the Roman Republic was peering at the bounty of Egypt with an eye toward conquest. The archives in the Tebtunis crocodiles show a glimpse of everyday life in this period of uncertainty\, offering insights into the economic conditions and state-mandated notary practices of the lost century of Egypt’s history. \nThese crocodile papyri have never been examined in a holistic way that considers their archaeological assemblage of votive artifacts\, the full extent of the subarchives\, or the importance of the crocodile temples to the documents themselves. This is precisely what this project proposes to remedy.  \nAbout the Speaker: \nLeah Packard-Grams an interdisciplinary ancient historian\, papyrologist\, and archaeologist in UC Berkeley’s interdisciplinary program (AHMA) currently writing her dissertation on the topic of today’s lecture. Her primary interests include Greek and Demotic papyrology\, the archaeology of Greco-Roman Egypt\, and the materiality of ancient textual artifacts. She is part of two excavations in Egypt (El Hibeh with UC Berkeley + Amheida with NYU). She is passionate about diversifying the field of ancient history to include those accounts of people who have been historically marginalized\, and strives to bridge the disciplinary divides that artificially separate archaeology\, papyrology\, and Egyptology. \nParking is available in UC lots all day on weekends\, for a fee. Ticket dispensing machines accept debit or credit cards. Parking is available in lots around the Social Sciences Building\, and in lots along Bancroft. A map of the campus is available online at http://www.berkeley.edu/map/ . \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, and https://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Zuni Region in the Post-Chacoan Era.
DESCRIPTION:Lecture by Keith Kintigh (Arizona State University). The Chaco Era has received a tremendous amount of archaeological consideration over the last 45 years. Far less attention has been paid to understanding the organization of northern Southwestern societies following the collapse of Chaco–a time was once viewed as a dark age\, a time of cultural backsliding. However\, imposing sites with Chaco-inspired public architecture provide evidence of large communities\, dating between A.D. 1200 and 1275\, that laid the organizational foundations of well-known Pueblo IV towns. We excavated portions of two such Zuni-area settlements and did extensive systematic survey around those two sites and a third\, Spier 81. The Hinkson Site has 32 residential room blocks surrounding a great house complex that includes an unroofed\, oversize great kiva\, a nazha\, and roads. The Hinkson site appears to be the center of a 250 square kilometer community with 70 room blocks and nearly 900 rooms. The Los Gigantes Site in the El Morro Valley has similar expressions of public architecture but many fewer roomblocks in the immediate vicinity. Recognition of these multi-room block communities with public architecture permits a rethinking of post-Chacoan\, Ancestral Pueblo social organization south of Chaco and provides a more plausible bridge between the Chacoan and Pueblo IV periods in the Zuni region.

SUMMARY:Beyond the stone giants: an isotopic perspective on life and death of the people buried at Mont’e Prama
DESCRIPTION:November 19\, 2024\n7:30 p.m. ET\nDavidson College\nBelk Visual Arts Center 117\nFree and open to the public \nLuca Lai\, “Beyond the stone giants: an isotopic perspective on life and death of the people buried at Mont’e Prama” \nAbout the lecture:\nThe accidental 1974 discovery of tens of fragmentary statues at Mont’e Prama\, in central-western Sardinia\, led to one of the most unexpected discoveries in recent Mediterranean archaeology: A unique necropolis with thousands of fragments of stone warriors and athletes representing one of the earliest examples of life-sized 3D figures west of the Aegean.\nAfter a brief summary of the monumental aspects and the main interpretations of the site’s meaning\, the talk will explore the less-publicized insights into the chronology\, burial ritual\, health\, diet\, and mobility as they begin to take shape from mortuary archaeology\, osteology\, and especially the isotopic analyses of their bones. This will also provide an opportunity to discuss the site’s role in today’s public debates surrounding the archaeology of the Nuragic culture and its special place in shaping modern Sardinian identity. \nAbout the speaker:\nLuca Lai\, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at UNC Charlotte\, specializes in stable isotopes\, Western Mediterranean prehistory and particularly Sardinia\, and human-environment interactions. He has conducted research on paleodiet and paleoclimate in prehistoric Sardinia from the fifth through the first millennium BCE\, focusing on long-term continuity and change\, and on differential access to resources based on social status and gender. He grew up in Sardinia and has also lived in Ireland\, the US\, England\, and Lesotho. He has worked on favoring the dissemination of archaeology\, culture and current events awareness with special attention to the perspectives of minorities.

SUMMARY:Serpent Mound - An Icon of Ancient Ohio
DESCRIPTION:The second presentation in the Archaeological Institute of America Dayton Society’s 2024-2025 Lecture Series presented by Dr. Brad Lepper\, Senior Archaeologist World Heritage Program\, Ohio History Connection \nSerpent Mound in Adams County\, Ohio is one of the largest and most spectacular earthen sculptures in the world. The age of the serpent is a subject of much current debate with some archaeologists arguing that it was built by the Adena culture at around 300 B.C.E. and others favoring the Fort Ancient culture at around 1100 C.E. Although much about Serpent Mound still is shrouded in mystery\, ancient cave paintings in Missouri may provide a key to unlocking some of its secrets. \nThis lecture is scheduled to take place in person in the Science Center Auditorium (SC 114) at The University of Dayton.\nFor a campus map with building and parking information visit https://udayton.edu/map/ \nThanks to the Archaeological Institute of America’s Lecture Program and its Dayton Society members this lecture is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Archeology in Pajamas: Virtual Lecture Series #2
DESCRIPTION:The Arkansas Archeological Survey and Arkansas Archeological Society are co-hosting a new Virtual Lecture Series\, called “Archeology in Pajamas\,” from Fall 2024 through Spring 2025. Have you been interested in attending a talk but weren’t wanting to travel far distances\, battle inclement weather\, or leave the house because you aren’t feeling up to coming to an in-person talk? Then\, this virtual Zoom lecture series is for you! We have a wide range of topics presented by speakers from varied parts of the country\, so there is sure to be something for everyone. To attend\, please register using the QR code on the attached flyer\, or by clicking the link below. These lectures are free and open to the public; anyone is welcome to (virtually) attend. You will need to individually register for each talk\, and more information about each will be released as the dates approach. \nDecember Presentation:\nDr. Julie Zimmermann\, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville\n“Storytelling in the Creation of Cahokia\, a Native American Theater State” \nTalk Abstract: Cahokia might be understood as the capital of a Native American theater state which drew people to it and spread its influence by attracting followers through theatrical rituals. Of those rituals\, storytelling was primary\, because stories create worldview and give meaning to all other rituals. Cahokian stories were embodied in artworks made at and disseminated from Cahokia. Primary among these stories was that of a hero who wore human head earrings. Cosmological and goddess stories were also told by Cahokians\, but the stories of heroes are those most commonly depicted in Braden-style artworks found far from Cahokia. The dissemination of hero stories might support the notion that Cahokia was a theater state\, and the heroic epic was a tool of statecraft central to the growth of that state. Cahokians created their world through stories\, but it was through hero stories that they grew their authority in far-flung societies. \nREGISTER HERE: https://uark.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_FoGFl_bwTcKNwQFfFVpPCw#/registration

SUMMARY:Researching in the arc-“hives”: Ancient Egyptian honey and beekeeping
DESCRIPTION:In-person lecture\nSaturday\, December 14\, 3:30 pm EST\nPenn Museum\, Classroom 2\nA holiday party will follow the lecture \nSpeaker: Dr. Shelby Justl \nTitle: Researching in the arc-“hives”: Ancient Egyptian honey and beekeeping \nAbstract:\nWith no sugarcane until 710 AD\, honey was the major sweetener for ancient Egyptian food and wines\, an important ingredient in medicine\, and a valuable tribute commodity. Illustrations of apiculture are surprisingly rare and a lack of representation may indicate honey was a royal prerogative at least in the Old and Middle Kingdoms. However\, honey production appears to be a more expansive industry from the New Kingdom onwards. \nThis talk assesses the extent of royal and temple control over beekeeping from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period through beekeeping titles\, New Kingdom letters\, the Wilbour Papyrus\, Abydos Stela of Sheshonq\, and Zenon archives. Location and size of beekeepers’ land-holdings and hives\, productivity levels\, and evidence of honey grading\, transport\, and the taxation of beekeepers may suggest honey production as a larger scale industry than previously thought. A snapshot of the archaeological site of Abydos and excavated honey pots may also indicate the extent of state level production facilities and the industrial scale of honey gathering\, storage\, and use. \nSpeaker Bio:\nDr. Shelby Justl is a lecturer in the Critical Writing Program here at UPenn. Her courses focus on archaeology and the ancient Egyptian world including such topics as Egyptomania\, pseudo-archaeology\, and world mythology. She has a PhD in NELC from UPenn and a MA with distinction in Egyptology from the University of Liverpool. After researching and publishing an ostracon from Penn excavations in Abydos that discussed trade of semiprecious stones\, her PhD dissertation concentrated on the administration and control of the ancient Egyptian semiprecious stone industry; in acquisition\, quarrying\, processing\, and distribution. She is currently editing this to be published as a book. Dr. Justl also is deeply interested in another “luxury” product for the ancient Egyptians\, honey! Still in the research stages\, she intends to publish a book on Egyptian honey\, beekeeping\, and the administration/operation of the industry. \n******************\nLectures are FREE to ARCE Members\, $7 for University of Pennsylvania Museum Members and UPenn Staff and Faculty\, $5 for Students with ID\, and $10 for the general public.\nLight refreshments served starting at 3pm.\n****************** \nThe American Research Center in Egypt (ARCE) is a private\, nonprofit organization founded in 1948 by a consortium of educational and cultural institutions to support research on all aspects of Egyptian history and culture\, foster broader knowledge among the general public\, and strengthen American-Egyptian cultural ties. The ARCE Pennsylvania Chapter (ARCE-PA) is the local branch of the national institution. We host monthly events including scholarly lectures\, Egyptian-themed workshops\, social events\, and guided tours of the Penn Museum’s Egyptian galleries.

SUMMARY:Rediscovering Egypt's Lost Dinosaurs
DESCRIPTION:The American Research Center in Egypt\, Northern California chapter\, and the UC Berkeley Department of Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures invite you to attend a lecture by Dr. Matt Lamanna\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History: \nRediscovering Egypt’s Lost Dinosaurs \nSunday December 15\, 2024\, 3 PM Pacific Standard Time\nRm 56 Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley \nThis is an in-person lecture and is not virtual.\nThe lecture will not be recorded. No registration is required \nAbout the Lecture: \nEgypt’s vast archaeological record and engaging material culture have long excited people around the world\, but did you know that this region’s history stretches back well into the Mesozoic Era\, or Age of Dinosaurs? In the early 20th century\, a series of German expeditions recovered fossils of several new and extraordinary ~95-million-year-old dinosaur species from the Bahariya Oasis in Egypt’s Western Desert\, most famously the enormous sail-backed semi-aquatic predator Spinosaurus aegyptiacus. Tragically\, however\, all these fossils were destroyed during a British Royal Air Force bombing of Munich in late April 1944. In 2000\, a collaborative Egyptian-American research team became the first scientists to discover dinosaur fossils in the Bahariya Oasis in nearly a century; among these were a partial skeleton of a new and gigantic sauropod (long-necked plant-eating dinosaur) that was later named Paralititan stromeri. More recently\, researchers from the Mansoura University Vertebrate Paleontology Center in Mansoura\, Egypt have collected additional\, important dinosaur fossils from Bahariya\, and moreover have expanded their paleontological efforts to include geologically younger (~75-million-year-old) sites in the Kharga and Dakhla oases. Foremost among their finds from the latter is another new sauropod\, Mansourasaurus shahinae\, which constitutes one of the best-preserved late Mesozoic-aged land-living backboned animals known from the entire African continent. Collectively\, these discoveries have cast unprecedented light on Egypt’s remarkable dinosaurs\, helping to restore a scientific legacy that was lost during the Second World War. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Matt Lamanna is the Mary R. Dawson Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology and the senior dinosaur researcher at Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. Originally from the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York\, he received his B.Sc. from Hobart College in 1997 and his M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1999 and 2004. Within the past 26 years\, he has directed or co-directed field expeditions to Antarctica\, Argentina\, Australia\, China\, Croatia\, Egypt\, Greenland\, and the western United States that have resulted in the discovery of more than 20 new species of dinosaurs and other fossil animals from the Cretaceous Period\, the third and final time period of the Age of Dinosaurs; indeed\, he is one of only a handful of people to have found dinosaur fossils on all seven continents. Lamanna served as chief scientific advisor to Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s $36M “Dinosaurs in Their Time” exhibition and has appeared on television programs for PBS (NOVA)\, the Discovery Channel\, the National Geographic Channel\, the History Channel\, A&E\, the Science Channel\, and many more. \n———————- \nParking is available in UC lots all day on weekends\, for a fee. Ticket dispensing machines accept debit or credit cards. Parking is available in lots around the Social Sciences Building\, and in lots along Bancroft. A map of the campus is available online at http://www.berkeley.edu/map/ . \nAbout Northern California ARCE: \nFor more information\, please visit https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, and https://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:Beneath an Ancient Neighborhood: Archaeology and History in the Barrio de Analco\, Santa Fe
DESCRIPTION:Lecture. Stephen Post (Museum of New Mexico\, Office of Archaeological Studies). For more than 900 years\, humans have left their mark on the neighborhood on the south side of the Santa Fe River known as Barrio de Analco. Within the Barrio de Analco\, conclusive physical evidence of its past residents often has been difficult to uncover. The vague traces left by Ancestral Puebloan\, Hispano\, Mestizo\, Indio\, Genízaro\, and Anglo peoples offer fleeting glimpses of the past. The physical context of these traces can be compared to mixing a layer cake in a blender and then spreading the result across the land. While well intended\, studies of this jumbled landscape\, most of them mandated by City ordinances\, have been insufficient in scope to yield substantive new information. This talk will highlight a few exceptional studies\, including recent research at the Boyle House located at 327 E. De Vargas St. These studies shed light on the customs\, relationships\, and identities of those who once lived in the ancient location known to modern Pueblo people as O’gha Po’oghe and Santa Fe’s non-Indigenous residents as El Barrio de Analco.
