SUMMARY:Bob Sutton - Recovering Zeuxis’ Helen: The Invention of the Female Nude
DESCRIPTION:Bob Sutton\, Professor Emeritus\, Indiana University\nRecovering Zeuxis’ Helen: The Invention of the Female Nude \nClassical Athenian painted vases often displayed risqué images of naked female bathers. Around 430 BCE\, this theme is suddenly transformed into noble images of goddesses\, brides\, and Helen of Troy that decorate vessels designed for female use. Appearing as the discretely nude kneeling bather type\, they likely reflect a lost monumental painting of Helen by Zeuxis of Heraclea. This change appears pivotal in establishing respectable female nudity in Classical art and the Renaissance. \nJohns Hopkins University Homewood campus Olin Hall room 305

SUMMARY:Something Old\, Something Blue: The Color of Innovation through Ancient Western Asian Seals
DESCRIPTION:Stone and clay may dominate archaeological narratives of Ancient Western Asian museum galleries\, shaping our understanding through what has survived best. Yet\, ancient craftspeople worked within a far richer material world that included glass\, glazes\, pigments\, faience\, and one of history’s earliest synthetic materials: Egyptian blue or zagindurû in Akkadian. Drawing on the Ancient Western Asian seal collection at the Morgan Library & Museum made famous by the glyptic scholarship of Edith Porada\, this lecture explores how seals can open a window into broader questions of material performance and innovation. Rather than viewing stone as the pinnacle medium in traditional hierarchies of value\, it argues for a more expansive perspective on seal materials that recognizes experimentation\, technical knowledge\, and creativity. \nDr. Pınar Durgun is an art-historically trained archaeologist with a strong background in anthropology. She has a Ph.D. from Brown University’s Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World. Dr. Durgun has worked as a researcher\, educator\, and curator at various museums including the Pergamon Museum’s Vorderasiatisches Museum in Berlin and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Her research focuses on death and burial practices\, copies and copying\, images and identity making\, materials and makers in the ancient world.

SUMMARY:Alexander Hollman (University of Washington): Magic\, Underworld Gods\, Competition: The Newly Published Curse Tablets of Antioch & Caesarea (Rumpakis Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Ancient curse tablets\, with texts usually scraped into thin\, soft lead sheets\, then rolled up and hidden in tombs\, wells\, or walls\, represent some of the most fascinating sources of ancient beliefs in magic and dark powers. \nCurses could target rivals in business or love\, circus charioteers racing against one’s own favorite faction\, or even a humble green grocer who had done the writer some unnamed wrong. \nProfessor Hollmann (University of Washington)\, in collaboration with Robert Daniel of the University of Cologne\, has been working on a on a two-volume edition\, translation\, and commentary of Ancient Greek lead curse tablets from ancient Antioch and Caesarea and will introduce us to some of his newest discoveries.

SUMMARY:Lives Beneath the City: Archaeology at Indianapolis’ Greenlawn Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:Construction of the Henry Street Bridge brought renewed attention to portions of Indianapolis’ historic Old and New Burying Grounds\, later known collectively as Greenlawn Cemetery.\nArchaeologists documented more than 1\,700 burial shafts within the project area\, revealing a complex landscape shaped by nineteenth-century burial\, earlier relocation efforts\, and more than a century of urban development. This talk explores how archaeology\, bioarchaeology\, historical research\, and community collaboration are helping reconstruct the cemetery’s history and the lives of the people buried there\, while guiding their respectful care and eventual reburial.

SUMMARY:The History of Archaeology in Africa
DESCRIPTION:This talk by Dr. Tim Forssman (University of Mpumalanga) explores the development of archaeology on the African continent through four broad historical eras. It considers how colonialism\, independence\, changing intellectual traditions\, and African scholarship have shaped the questions archaeologists ask and the histories they produce\, before turning to a broader question: why does archaeology matter in contemporary Africa?

SUMMARY:Imperial Barge: Cleopatra the Goddess
DESCRIPTION:Charles Eliot Norton Memorial Lectureship \nSpeaker: Dr. Alison Futrell\, University of Arizona  \nAbstract:\nOne of the key motifs in popular representations of the last of the Ptolemies is Cleopatra’s Barge\, a nexus of seduction\, pleasure\, gratification. For the historical Cleopatra VII\, the barge was a political and religious platform for shaping positive interactions with diverse audiences in the ancient Mediterranean\, meant to stabilize and secure her realm and shape a vision for future authority\, with power strongly founded in the past. In Egypt\, Cleopatra reinforced connections with local powerbrokers and processed between ritual centers\, a dynamic divine ruler enacting key functions that ensured the practical and sacred continuity of her realm. Her famous Nile Cruise with Julius Caesar was a sacred pageant that featured her newly secured strength as queen\, goddess\, partner and chosen of the gods. Her notorious meeting with Antony on the barque of Isis was both a ritualized performance of royal leadership and the reassertion of dynastic claims\, the launch of a new Empire rising in the Eastern Mediterranean.

SUMMARY:“Sex in the Roman Arena”
DESCRIPTION:A lecture in celebration of International Archaeology Day by Alison Futrell\, Professor of History at the University of Arizona. Futrell’s research is guided by her interest in the performance and imagery of power in the Roman Empire\, with particular focus on spectacle and gender. She is also fascinated by representations of the ancient Mediterranean in modern popular culture. Her talk tackles the sexualized nuances of the arena\, touching on the relative masculinity of gladiators as a group\, within Roman society\, as well as the how the different styles of combat demonstrated different levels of virility. And what about female performers? How did spectacularization of sex enhance demonstrations of moral and political authority by imperial sponsors? Women in the arena attracted the audience’s focus and disrupted messages of imperial power and challenged audience assumptions about strength\, about blood\, and about humanity.

SUMMARY:Revelation & Archaeology at Sardis
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exploration of the archaeological history of an ancient capital that became a historic Christian city. \nSardis\, a UNESCO World Heritage site\, is known from the Bible as one of the seven cities of Revelation. But before that\, it was the capital of Lydia\, a legendary ancient empire where coinage was first invented. Excavations at this ancient Turkish city have revealed major changes in pagan sanctuaries during the fourth and fifth centuries AD—a period shaped by the recognition and spread of Christianity in the eastern Roman Empire. \nFor the last 18 years\, University of Wisconsin– Madison professor Nick Cahill has directed the excavations at Sardis. In this lecture\, he will reflect on what he has learned through decades of fieldwork.
