SUMMARY:Sicily Circumnavigation: Sailing around Sicily and Malta with optional pre-trip extension to Malta
DESCRIPTION:Join Archaeological Institute of America lecturer and host Laetitia La Follette\, Professor of Greek and Roman Art and Architecture\, on a summertime cruise circumnavigating Sicily aboard the luxurious\, 47-cabin\, three-masted barque Sea Cloud II. Begin and end on the island of Malta which\, together with Sicily\, has witnessed and bears the stamps of all the major civilizations that the Mediterranean cradled: Phoenicians\, Greeks\, Romans\, Arabs\, Normans\, Christians\, Jews\, Byzantines\, and Muslims. Each civilization left important stylistic traces in major architectural\, urban\, and artistic monuments.\nClassical temples\, open-air theaters\, villas adorned with mosaics and frescoes\, magnificently adorned churches and chapels\, Islamic cloisters\, and Baroque cathedrals are all found here in abundance. Begin in Valletta\, the vibrant capital city of the island nation of Malta and one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world. Then embark Sea Cloud II for a splendid\, seven-night cruise circumnavigating Sicily. Explore the island’s treasures with stops in Trapani (with options to visit Segesta\, Erice\, or Marsala)\, Palermo\, Giardini Naxos (for Taormina or Mt. Etna)\, and Syracuse. This itinerary also includes a day in the Aeolian Islands\, one of seven UNESCO sites visited during this cruise\, as well as a specially-timed sailing to enjoy up-close views of the still-active Stromboli volcano. Also available is an optional\, pre-trip extension on Malta and Gozo\, with visits to remarkable Neolithic and medieval sites. \nYour host vessel\, the Sea Cloud II\, offers excellent cruise accommodations while capturing the timeless elegance of sailing. To be on deck when the sails are fully extended is an unforgettable experience. Thus\, this itinerary is planned to ensure ample sailing time to enjoy the majesty of this vessel and the thrill of sailing. \nA robust educational program rounds out this outstanding journey. AIA lecturer and host Laetitia La Follette\, an archaeologist and Immediate Past President of the AIA; Elihu Rubin\, an expert on architecture and urbanism; and Wendy Heller\, a leading scholar in the field of Baroque music\, will offer a series of illustrated lectures and informal discussions along the way. This cruise is being co-sponsored by other organizations so\, with only 47 cabins aboard ship\, I encourage you to reserve your preferred cabin today by contacting AIA Tours at aia@studytours.org or (800) 748-6262.

SUMMARY:Hiking Scotland’s Orkney & Shetland Islands
DESCRIPTION:This is the perfect opportunity to explore all that Scotland’s Northern Isles have to offer: prehistoric stone circles\, burial chambers\, and settlements; quaint villages; huge seabird colonies; and remarkable plant life—all amidst dramatic landscapes. This will be Scotland seen slowly\, with time for in-depth exploration at each site. The Orkney and Shetland islands have an amazing wealth of archaeological sites dating back 5\,000 years. Together the islands have more than 18\,000 known sites\, with new discoveries being made every year. This archaeological saga is worth the telling\, and nowhere else can the evidence be seen in more glorious a setting. Travel and learn with AIA lecturer and host Dr. Val Turner. \nHighlights:\n• A private tour of the active Ness of Brodgar excavations\, a ceremonial site in the “Heart of Neolithic Orkney” that was in use for around 1\,000 years. 2024 is the last year that excavations will be active.The site is within the UNESCO World Heritage Site on\nOrkney\, which also includes the chambered tomb of Maeshowe\, estimated to have been constructed around 2700 B.C.; the Stones of Stenness; the 4\,000-year-old Ring of Brodgar\, one of Europe’s finest Neolithic monuments; Skara Brae settlement; and associated funerary monuments and stone settings. These are unquestionably among the most important Neolithic sites in Western Europe.\n• “The Crucible of Iron Age Shetland”—including Mousa Broch\, the best-preserved known broch in the world\, Old Scatness\, and Jarlshof—where the lack of intensive modern farming means that the preservation of these sites and their landscapes is exceptional.\n• The Isles are a birdwatcher’s paradise\, and one of the major seabird breeding and feeding areas in the North Atlantic. More than a million birds breed in very large colonies.\n• All meals are included\, and you will enjoy comfortable accommodations: four nights at the elegant Lynnfield Hotel\, a comfortable overnight ferry from Orkney to Shetland and from Shetland to Aberdeen\, and three nights at the remote and charming\nBusta House Hotel.

SUMMARY:In the Footsteps of Belzoni and Carter in the Valley of the Kings
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 Zoom lecture by Dr. Donald P. Ryan\, Pacific Lutheran University: \nIn the Footsteps of Belzoni and Carter in the Valley of the Kings \nSunday\, August 18\, 2024\, 3 PM PDT \nZoom Lecture. This meeting will not be recorded. A registration link has already been 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 16. Registrations are limited to 100\, so the sooner you register\, the better. \nAbout the Lecture: \nThe archaeological exploration of Egypt’s Valley of the Kings\, the royal New Kingdom cemetery\, offers a rich history of fascinating discoveries made by determined and often eccentric individuals.  The Italian carnival performer-turned-antiquarian\, Giovanni Belzoni\, was responsible for the finding of the tomb of Seti I\, among others\, in the early 19th century\, and Howard Carter was well involved in the Valley two decades before he encountered Tutankhamun.  \nIn this lecture\, Dr. Donald P. Ryan will describe some of his own work in the Valley of the Kings\, during which he literally followed in the footsteps of both explorers\, including the re-excavation of KV 21 (a Belzoni discovery) and three tombs discovered by Carter early in his career: KV 44\, KV 45 and KV 60.  The latter tomb is especially controversial with its occupant identified by some as the female ruler\, Hatshepsut\, after its rediscovery by Ryan. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Donald P. Ryan is an archaeologist affiliated with the College of Liberal Studies at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma\, Wash.\, a Fellow of both the Explorers Club and the Royal Geographical Society\, and a Research Associate of the Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo\, Norway.  A veteran of many field expeditions\, Ryan is also the author of numerous scientific and popular articles and several books on archaeological subjects.

SUMMARY:Symposium: Layers of Meanings in Benjamin West’s Neoclassical Venus and Cupid
DESCRIPTION:Join AIA-Nashville Society for an in-person symposium on August 19 at 6 PM at the Nashville Parthenon. This symposium is free and open to the public\, and will take place in the Naos on Level 2. RSVP required. \nVivien Green Fryd\, Professor Emerita in the History of Art and Architecture Department at Vanderbilt University\, Ph.D\, will share about American painter Benjamin West (1738-1820)\, including West’s Venus and Cupid (1765)\, part of the Parthenon permanent collection. \nABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM:\nBenjamin West’s Venus and Cupid (1765) in the Parthenon’s Cowan Collection marks the first commission this Philadelphia Quaker received upon arriving in Italy to study art. This work\, the first history painting West created in the academic tradition\, which rated history painting as the most important subject\, represents the mythological Venus\, the goddess of love\, with her son\, Cupid. It also evokes to topos of the Madonna lactans\, or the nursing Madonna\, which had been a prevalent subject throughout the Italian Renaissance\, which he studied while in Italy. West showed emotion and love between parent and child that had not existed until the 1760s\, and hence this work joins that of others created by Euro-Americans in the U.S. colonies and abroad who similarly represented changing attitudes towards child-rearing\, family relations\, and the definition of childhood. West was at the forefront of establishing neoclassical subjects and styles as the premier manner of painting during the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

SUMMARY:Ireland’s Southern Coast
DESCRIPTION:This journey takes you through the archaeology\, history\, and landscapes of Ireland’s southern coast\, from east to west. Starting and ending in Dublin\, this tour has been designed to give you a deep understanding of the multitude of landscapes and the rich heritage of Ireland\, as well as the striking difference between Ireland’s fertile east coast compared to its dramatic and breathtaking southwest. After a gentle start in Dublin\, we will head to the sunny southeast and the scene of the Anglo- Norman invasion of Ireland in 1169. There is no better place to understand the impact of this invasion on the existing Irish and Norse populations\, and the shifting of political and military power over the following centuries\, than here where it all played out. We will then will make our way along the south coast\, stopping in Waterford\, Cork\, and West Cork\, with an overnight in Killarney before heading back to Dublin. We will explore hidden archaeological sites from earliest prehistory to the Iron Age (Celtic Period)\, through early Christian sites to the later medieval period and Ireland’s more recent history\, all in the company of highly respected academics\, engaging guides\, and a tour manager. Travel in a small group and enjoy the personal attention and service of a highly respected Irish academic lecturer/host Dr. Stephen Mandal\, who is both a geologist and archaeologist. \nHighlights include: \n– Visits in Dublin to the National Museum of Ireland and The Irish Emigration Museum.\n– Exploring the Hook Peninsula\, starting with a visit to Hook Head\, home to the world’s oldest operational\, fully intact lighthouse (at over 800 years old)\, set in a dramatic landscape. Afterwards\, we drive the short distance\nto Tintern Abbey\, a Cistercian abbey founded ca. 1200\, where several important ruins survive\, including parts of the nave\, chancel\, tower\, chapel\, and cloister. Enjoy lunch\, tour the ruins\, and walk in the beautiful Victorian\ngardens.\n– A guided tour of the Dunbrody Famine Ship an authentic reproduction of an 1840s emigrant vessel that provides a world-class interpretation of the famine emigrant experience.\n– Visit the spectacular Charles Fort\, a wonderful example of a star-shaped\, 17th-century fort. As one of the largest military installations in the country\, Charles Fort has been associated with some of the most momentous\nevents in Irish history\, the most significant of which were the Williamite Wars (1689-91) and the Civil War (1922-23).\n– Seeing the Bronze Age Drombeg Stone Circle. Drombeg is probably Ireland’s most famous stone circle\, consisting of 17 pillar stones that are graded from the two large portal stones\, each nearly seven feet high\, at the\nnortheast towards the recumbent stone to the southeast. \nThe pace of this tour is MODERATE: Must be able to walk one to three miles per day on mostly flat\, but often uneven\, terrain.

SUMMARY:In the Shadow of Egypt’s Last Pyramid: Uncovering the Ahmose Cemetery and Its Historical Implications
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 Emily Smith-Sangster\, Princeton University: \nIn the Shadow of Egypt’s Last Pyramid:\nUncovering the Ahmose Cemetery and Its Historical Implications \nSunday September 15\, 2024\, 3 PM Pacific Daylight Time \nRoom 175 Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley \nThis in-person lecture will be recorded for later publication on YouTube. \nAbout the Lecture: \nIn early 2023\, the Abydos South Project (ASP) began its inaugural season working on a plot of land to the local north of the Ahmose Pyramid. The goal of the season was to explore this area of the concession in the hopes of better understanding its use history. This area\, previously unexcavated save for shallow test trenching in 1966 by the EAO\, and surface collection in 1993 by the Ahmose and Tetisheri Project\, had been identified as the possible location of the Ahmose Pyramid Town. \nASP’s excavations\, however\, discovered that this area was\, in fact\, a large elite necropolis used for an exceedingly brief period of time. While analysis is still in progress\, it is clear that this discovery offers significant data that will help us develop our understanding of expressions of elite agency and identity in the cemeteries of Abydos\, while also allowing us to further contextualize elite activity at this site within the wider history of the early New Kingdom. \nThis lecture will discuss these excavations and resulting discoveries\, while also highlighting the impact this discovery will have on our understanding of the Ahmose period at Abydos and beyond. \nAbout the Speaker: \nEmily Smith-Sangster is a Ph.D. Candidate in Egyptian Art and Archaeology at Princeton University and Associate Director of the Abydos South Project. Her dissertation investigates the construction and expression of post-mortem identity during the early New Kingdom at Abydos\, with a particular focus on the Ahmose Cemetery. Her work interacts with themes of landscape\, sensorialism\, gender\, and embodiment. \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.

SUMMARY:Reports from the Field
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to begin our programming this year by hearing from UC Berkeley graduate students who have spent part of the past year working on archaeological projects at various sites around the world. Leah Packard-Grams will discuss her work in Egypt over the winter at the site of Amheida\, a Roman town in the remote Dakhla Oasis in the Western Desert\, and specifically will focus on her work with ceramics\, translation of ostraca\, and a larger interest in writing in the town. Tanya Bertone will discuss the 2024 field season of the Clear Lake Archaeological Project (CLAP)\, a low-cost summer field school in Clearlake\, California. Sandra Oseguera will discuss her 2024 archaeological field season in San Juan Luvina\, Oaxaca\, focusing particularly on three of the project’s objectives: strengthening ties with the Indigenous community\, establishing a collaborative methodology for a long-term archaeological project\, and collecting soil samples.

SUMMARY:The Galisteo Basin as a Multicultural Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Lecture. Eric Blinman (former director Museum of New Mexico\, Office of Archaeological Studies). Puebloan peoples are stereotyped under a single label\, which is a profound injustice to their rich cultural diversity. This diversity also implies the existence of distinct histories\, and the unique setting of the Galisteo Basin provides an opportunity to explore these histories. The uniqueness of the Galisteo Basin is largely due to its susceptibility to climate change and the interaction of the environment with human economies. Tiwa\, Tewa\, Tano\, Towa\, and Keres cultural groups were well established in north central New Mexico at the beginning of the twelfth century\, enjoying a stable climate pattern that supported a cultural florescence in the Four Corners region. Drought and a change in the monsoon rainfall pattern in the mid-to-late 12th century disrupted the stable cultural geography\, and the Galisteo Basin was opened to agricultural homesteading. By the mid-twelfth century\, more than five generations before the Mesa Verde abandonment\, immigrants began colonizing the Basin. More than 200 years of conflicts-of-interest and conflict ensued\, resulting in the 15th century formation of the Galisteo Basin Pueblos\, and giving form to the cultural diversity encountered during European colonization.

SUMMARY:The reception of ancient Egypt in the medieval Muslim world
DESCRIPTION:The Ann Santen Endowed Lecture \nOkasha El Daly\, “The reception of ancient Egypt in the medieval Muslim world”\nTuesday\, September 17\n7:30 – 9:00 PM\nDavidson College\nVisual Arts Center VAC-117 Semans Lecture Hall \nThese lectures are sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America\, with funding from the Davidson College Public Lectures Committee and the departments of Art\, Classics\, Educational Studies\, and History. \nAbout the lecture: \nContrary to the prevailing view that the conversion of Egyptians first to Christianity and then Islam ended interest in their own heritage\, they continued to study their own past with great pride. Many medieval Arab scholars visited Egypt to study its heritage and ancient scripts. This interest in ancient Egyptian scripts led to many scholarly attempts to decipher them. Here is a brief study of the motivations behind their interest and the degrees of their success in the decipherment and understanding of ancient Egypt. Nearly all the writers interested in Egyptian hieroglyphs were alchemists; many were also called Sufis or Mystics (for example\, Jabir\, Dhu Al-Nun\, and Ibn Waḥshiyah). The fame of Egypt as the land of science\, wisdom\, and mysticism created a welcoming environment for the reception of ancient Egyptian thought and arts among medieval Muslim scholars and the general public. This medieval Muslim reception fills a gap of about a thousand years in the history of Egyptology. \nAbout the speaker: \nDr. Okasha El Daly specializes in the history\, art\, religion\, and languages of Egypt from the birth of its civilization to its contemporary history and current affairs. He has served as Inspector of Antiquities in the Giza Pyramids Area\, worked as a guide and lecturer in Egypt\, and lectured on the AIA’s national lecture circuit. He has directed several international projects\, including the Foundation for Science\, Technology\, and Civilisation in the UK and the recent Qatar-Sudan Archaeological Project. His book\, Egyptology: The Missing Millennium (2005)\, shows that medieval scholars in Egypt and beyond were as keen as we are to explore ancient Egyptian sciences and arts. \nThese lectures are sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America\, with funding from the Davidson College Public Lectures Committee and the departments of Art\, Classics\, Educational Studies\, and History. \nIndividuals can support us by joining the Archaeological Institute of America for $55 (students $30)\, which includes a subscription to Archaeology magazine.
