SUMMARY:Salem Chapel Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:Our chapter is organizing an IAD event at the Salem Chapel in St Catharines\, Ontario. The Salem Chapel was an important centre of abolitionist and civil rights activity\, and was the cornerstone of a growing community of African-American refugees from the United States. The most famous and celebrated member of the church was Harriet Tubman\, who lived in the area from 1851 to 1858\, and led many fugitives to freedom via the Underground Railroad (UGGR) to St. Catharines\, Ontario.\nSalem Chapel was designated a National Historic Site in 1999\, and is marked outside by several historical markers and a bust of Tubman. The heritage value of this church resides in its exceptional associations with the anti-slavery movement and the early black community to which it bears witness\, as illustrated by the church with its auditory-hall form\, typical of early African Canadian churches. A provincial historical plaque to Tubman was joined by a civic heritage marker concerning the building. Since then\, the national Historic Sites and Monuments Board has erected two federal plaques: one to the chapel as a national historic site\, the other to Tubman as a national historic person. Come join us to to appreciate this important historic monument.

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:Of Cities and Landscapes: Results from the Polatlı (Türkiye) Landscape Archaeology and Survey Project (PLAS)
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Asst. Prof. Müge Durusu-Tanriover\, Temple University \nPolatlı Landscape Archaeology and Survey Project (PLAS) is a regional survey covering the district of Polatlı in Ankara (the capital of Türkiye)\, primarily known for its first millennium BCE archaeological heritage featuring the Phrygian capital\, Gordion. Since its inception in 2019\, PLAS has aimed to shed light on the relatively under-studied Bronze Age in this region\, with a particular focus on investigating the Hittite Empire’s imperial strategies along its western border. In this talk\, I will present the results of four seasons of fieldwork conducted between 2019 and 2023.

SUMMARY:“When Informants Become Knowledge Producers: Rethinking Great Zimbabwe”
DESCRIPTION:Lecture by Prof. Shadreck Chirikure\, School of Archaeology\, University of Oxford: Using the lenses of insurgent scholarship\, this paper addresses itself to a contradiction that characterised southern African archaeology from the 1980s and has residuals in the present. Archaeology in Africa’ southern third\, like elsewhere\, was introduced as a tool of empire. The first westerners (antiquarians) to encounter Great Zimbabwe speculated that it was exotic in origin because Africans lacked capacity to make such a unique achievement. Professional archaeologists such as Gertrude Caton-Thompson overturned this exotic origins speculation. Interestingly\, both antiquarians and professional archaeologists relied on local informants to explain features and identify material culture at Great Zimbabwe and related sites. Both groups collected ethnographies and oral traditions from African informants who were never mentioned by name in publications. The first cohort of homegrown archaeologists emerged in the 1980s when Zimbabwe achieved independence. Inevitably\, some of the interpretations by established western archaeologists came under challenge. In defence\, some professional archaeologists insinuated that indigenous archaeologists did not know features they were excavating. Ironically\, they provided information used by western archaeologists to interpret the same features! What new meanings emerge when experiential knowledge is combined with scientific approaches to reignite a homegrown understanding of Great Zimbabwe? We use the results of new excavations and scientific work performed at Great Zimbabwe over the past ten years\, to develop new interpretations of everyday life\, urbanism and economic connections at various scales.

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:Uncovering Easter Island
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jo Anne Van Tilburg\nDirector\, UCLA Rock Art Archive\nCotsen Institute of Archaeology\, UCLA \nEaster Island\, more correctly known as Rapa Nui\, is a small\, remote island in the Southeast Pacific discovered and settled by Polynesian mariners ca. AD 1000. It was rediscovered by the Dutch in 1722 and\, since then\, has captured the world’s attention and admiration. Basic to that phenomenon are hundreds of perplexing monolithic statues (moai) dotting the Rapa Nui landscape. This presentation celebrates four decades of community archaeology\, tackles persistent speculations about settlement origins and moai meaning but also raises a new question: Why is the Rapa Nui past important to those of us living in the modern world? \nThis event will be hybrid – please join us in-person at 1201 9th St. in Manhattan Beach\, or via Zoom.

SUMMARY:AIA-Nashville Society Book Club: Pericles and Aspasia
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free AIA-Nashville Society Book Club meeting at the Nashville Parthenon on Monday\, November 4\, 2024\, at 6 PM. This event is free and open to the public\, with RSVP required. All are welcome. Mention “Book Club” at the Ticket Counter\, receive free admission\, and proceed to the Treasury on Level 2 for the friendly\, informal discussion. \nTHIS QUARTER’S BOOK SELECTION:\nWe will be discussing Pericles and Aspasia by Yvonne Korshak. Reserve your seat with a free RSVP. Looking to purchase the book? Head over to Parnassus Books and mention the Archaeological Institute of America-Nashville Society book club at the Parthenon for a 10% discount. \nABOUT THE BOOK: Pericles and Aspasia by Yvonne Korshak\nDescription from Nashville Public Library: \nTwo lovers crest the wave of the golden age of Athens: Pericles\, statesman and general\, and Aspasia\, his courtesan\, a philosopher’s daughter\, and a brilliant woman in her own right. In a world of hierarchies\, he is at the top when she arrives as little more than flotsam cast up on Athenian shores. Their love transcends social sanctions\, enduring and deepening despite the grave threat it presents to Pericles’ reputation as a leader of the Athenian democracy. \nThe novel unfolds against the background of the arts and history of the Golden Age\, seen through the eyes of two individuals who lent their particular brilliance to make it “golden”: Pericles\, the great orator and visionary of democracy\, and its most influential woman\, Aspasia. Their story takes them from the Agora-Athens’ marketplace to the Acropolis\, from the raunchy Athenian Port Piraeus mercantile across the Aegean Sea to East Greece. Pericles and Aspasia—together and apart—navigate treacherous paths from venal calculations to impassioned philosophical inquiry\, from high-stakes sea battles to the passions of family life. \nPericles and Aspasia engages issues that are vital today—the paradoxes of democracy\, the tensions of hierarchy\, the ironies of gender\, and others—but this novel is immersed in classical Athens: the city\, its sunshine\, its physical presence\, its people\, and their struggles and aspirations. \nBOOK CLUB SPONSOR: AIA-Nashville Society\nThe Archaeological Institute of America (AIA) promotes archaeological inquiry and public understanding of the material record of the human past to foster an appreciation of diverse cultures and our shared humanity. The AIA supports archaeologists\, their research and its dissemination\, and the ethical practice of archaeology. The AIA educates people of all ages about the significance of archaeological discovery and advocates for the preservation of the world’s archaeological heritage.

SUMMARY:Experiencing Epiphany in the Ancient Greek Sanctuary presented by Dr. Jess Paga (William & Mary)
DESCRIPTION:Sensory studies of embodiment have gained traction in recent years as unparalleled tools for examining the vicissitudes of ancient lived experience. When used in conjunction with cognitive studies\, it becomes possible to tease out the links between (over)stimulation\, deprivation\, and religious transformation. Kinesthetics\, in particular\, can facilitate a nuanced embodied account of approach\, (in)accessibility\, and viewshed orchestration\, by prioritizing the role of the body in movement within the landscapes and edifices of the built environment. The intersection of space\, place\, and body within the religious setting of the sanctuary thus becomes a nexus of gradually unfolding experience\, understanding\, and transformation. \nThrough a series of three case studies drawn from the 5th-3rd c. BCE\, this talk reveals the role of multisensory experience in the religious transformation that lies at the heart of Greek ritual practice by foregrounding kinesthetics as the link between the human participant and sacred built environment.

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.

SUMMARY:No Ordinary Dogs: Canine Behavior in Theban Tombs
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. Lectures 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.
