SUMMARY:Archaeology-Hour Livestream: Zainab Bahrani. “Toward an Archaeology of Preservation”
DESCRIPTION:The history of archaeology as a scientific discipline has received a great deal of attention in recent years. As a result of extensive archival research and the reading of archives against the grain\, alternative or indigenous archaeologies and earlier forms of relationships to the past—such as antiquarianism—have also begun to receive more serious scholarly attention. Since the 1990s\, Zainab Bahrani’s scholarship has contributed to these historical directions in archaeology. She now augments archival and theoretical work with fieldwork\, presenting some of the archaeological evidence of millennia of preservation and conservation practices in the landscape of Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan. Please join us in-person to watch this live-streamed Zoom lecture. \nLocation: Whitman College campus\, Maxey Hall\, room 207.

SUMMARY:Life and Death along the Nile: Tales from the Tombs of Tombos
DESCRIPTION:Beginning around 1500BC\, the New Kingdom Egyptian Empire expanded its reach into the territory of its southern neighbor\, Nubia\, in search of resources such as gold and cattle. Over the next few hundred years\, interactions between the ancient Egyptians and Nubians would include violent encounters\, trade and exchange\, political relationships\, and the establishment of interethnic communities. One Egyptian colonial community established in Nubia\, Tombos\, spans the period from Egyptian expansion through the empire’s decline\, allowing for rare perspective on this time of sociopolitical transition. In her talk\, Professor Michele Buzon will explore the processes of change and consequences of contact for the people who once lived at Tombos. Evidence for disease stress\, nutritional deficiencies\, immigration from Egypt to Nubia\, and biological relatedness between inhabitants will be presented. Osteobiographies of specific individuals from Tombos will be described to highlight how the rich archaeological record can be used to understand past societies.

SUMMARY:CFP: JIAAW Spring Symposium 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World (JIAAW) is accepting collaborative proposals for a symposium to be held in the spring semester of 2026. Joukowsky symposia are one- or two-day affairs organized around a topic relevant to the central mission of the Institute. This includes a core strength in archaeological and allied approaches to the study of the ancient Mediterranean and the Near East\, complemented by scholarship focused on the ancient Americas and East Asian antiquity. Proposals should focus on either: 1) a geographical area of particular relevance to the JIAAW; or 2) a methodology or theme relevant to JIAAW research\, while bringing together scholars working in a variety of regions\, including (but not limited to) those relevant to the JIAAW. \nProposals should be submitted by a pair of scholars who practice in relevant disciplines\, at least one of whom must hold a Ph.D. At least one organizer should be based outside Brown University; the other should be a JIAAW Academic Faculty member\, Faculty Fellow\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, or Ph.D. candidate or Graduate Student Fellow (ABD status only\, in both cases). Proposal authors will serve as the organizers of the symposium\, which will be held at Rhode Island Hall\, the home of the JIAAW at Brown University. The JIAAW will cover all programming costs related to the event\, including costs of travel and lodging for symposium organizers and all speakers at the event. JIAAW symposia typically have budgets of $15\,000 to $30\,000 and involve a mix of local\, national\, and international scholars. \nSymposium organizers are encouraged to identify why the symposium is a good fit for the JIAAW and Brown University more broadly and to develop a plan for publication of the symposium\, either in a special issue of a journal or an edited volume. \nThe proposal should include the following:\n● A one- to two-page narrative outlining the scope and aims of the symposium and its potential impact on scholarship on archaeology and the ancient world\n● A bibliography of relevant sources cited in the proposal (no more than 2 pages)\n● A list of the names of 8-12 proposed speakers\, including their current academic or professional affiliations\n● Curriculum vitae of both organizers \nProposals will be evaluated by a committee of JIAAW Academic Faculty based on the following criteria:\n● Innovativeness\n● Potential impact on scholarship related to archaeology and the ancient world\, including publication plans\n● The synergy of the proposed lineup of speakers relative to the proposed topics\n● The symposium’s relevance to the central mission of the JIAAW and potential links to other ongoing academic initiatives at Brown University\n● The relevant experience of the organizers\, their history of publication\, and prior experience planning and overseeing conferences. \nA successful proposal will demonstrate capacity to meaningfully impact scholarship on a particular topic\, help create or support meaningful partnerships with colleagues at other institutions\, while also enriching the greater intellectual community of archaeology and the ancient world at Brown University. \nThe 2026 symposium is being considered a pilot event and if successful will lead to further calls for supported symposia in the future. Questions and completed proposals should be directed to jiaaw@brown.edu. For full consideration\, please submit proposals by March 3\, 2025.

SUMMARY:Blending Art\, Minds\, and Artifacts: Understanding How We See What We See by  Maurizio Forte
DESCRIPTION:Maurizio Forte\, Ph.D.\, Duke University \nThis event is kindly hosted by the Embassy of Italy\, Washington\, D.C. \nIn the DC-area and wish to attend in person? Register here: https://embassyofitaly2.swoogo.com/etruscanAI \nThis lecture looks at how art\, archaeology\, and artificial intelligence come together\, focusing on how our\nminds perceive and understand ancient artifacts. It also explores how experiencing historic spaces can en-\ncourage cultural exchange. Using AI tools like neural networks\, we can rethink archaeological sites and monuments as ever-changing\nrather than fixed objects\, evolving each time they are observed and interpreted. Examples include the fa-\nmous Etruscan Sarcophagus of the Spouses (housed at the Museum of Villa Giulia in Rome)\, which has now\nbeen digitally reconstructed using AI models and brainwave (EEG) analysis to study how people respond to\nvirtual simulations. By combining AI and biometric tools to measure engagement\, this approach shows how\ntechnology can help us see the ancient world in new ways. Dr. Forte challenges us to think differently about\nwhat it means to view something\, suggesting that seeing is an active process that creates rich\, layered sto-\nries shaped by memory\, context\, and technology. \nA pioneer in digital and cyberarchaeology\, Maurizio Forte is the William and Sue Gross Distinguished Pro-\nfessor of Classical Studies Art\, Art History\, and Visual Studies at Duke University in Durham\, North Carolina.\nJoining in the discussion following the talk will be P. Gregory Warden\, Ph.D.\, president of the Etruscan\nFoundation\, who has worked in Mediterranean archaeology for over 50 years.

SUMMARY:Society Sunday 2025 Public Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Communal Government and Forms of Dependency in the K’iche’ State \nJoin us as the AIA Societies Committee presents a virtual presentation and Q&A with Iyaxel Cojtí Ren. This presentation will also be available in American Sign Language. \nIn the Maya highlands during the Late Postclassic period (1250-1524 CE)\, the K’iche’ created an expansive state able to subdue various nations and form a network of dependent polities. Join archaeologist Iyaxel Cojtí Ren as she explains how the key to this lies in the K’iche’ forms of local community organization and how they were integrated into the larger K’iche’ political unit. \nLearn about the most common forms of community organization: chinamit and amaq’. Their members practiced communal solidarity and forms of communal government\, which were vital for reproduction\, problem-solving\, and territorial defense. The K’iche’ state’s strength resulted from incorporating these communities\, chinamit and amaq’\, and adopting some of their values and forms of government. For example\, in the Colonial-period K’iche’ texts\, the term tzuq “to sustain\, to feed” appears frequently to describe the relationship of mutual dependence that existed between rulers and K’iche’ communities. This means that the rulers also had obligations to take care of the population under their authority. And while reciprocity between rulers and those they ruled was far from equal\, the communal form of government employed by the K’iche’ allowed representatives of the people to exert sufficient influence to prevent oppressive rulers and defend the people’s interests. \nIyaxel Cojtí Ren\, originally from Chichicastenango\, Guatemala\, is a K’iche’ cultural archaeologist. Iyaxel completed her PhD in the department of anthropology at Vanderbilt University in Nashville\, TN. Since 2021\, she has worked as an assistant professor at the University of Texas at Austin. She serves as director of the Baja Verapaz Regional Archaeological Project (PARBEZ) and as co-investigator of the Mayalex Project. Her research and publications focus primarily on the archaeology\, history\, and culture of the Maya highland nations of Guatemala\, especially from the Postclassic period. Cojtí Ren received a fellowship from the Newberry Library in Chicago for 2024-2025 to focus on her forthcoming publications. \nThe lecture will also be available in American Sign Language and we will also enable auto captioning on Zoom. Due to Zoom limitations on mobile devices and tablets\, participants interested in accessing ASL interpretation should log in using the desktop version of Zoom.

Funerary datasets are the chief source of social history in Egyptology\, and the numerous tombs\, coffins\, Books of the Dead\, and mummies of the Twentieth and Twenty-first Dynasties have not been fully utilized as social documents\, mostly because the data of this time period are scattered and difficult to synthesize. This book is the culmination of fifteen years of coffin study\, analyzing coffins and other funerary equipment of elites from the Nineteenth to the Twenty-second Dynasties to provide essential windows into social strategies and adaptations employed during the Bronze Age collapse and subsequent Iron Age reconsolidation. \nAbout the Speaker: \nKara Cooney is a professor of Egyptology at UCLA and Chair of the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures. Specializing in social history\, gender studies\, and economies in the ancient world\, she received her Ph.D. in Egyptology from Johns Hopkins University. Her popular books include The Woman Who Would Be King: Hatshepsut’s Rise to Power in Ancient Egypt\, When Women Ruled the World: Six Queens of Egypt\, and The Good Kings: Absolute Power in Ancient Egypt and the Modern World. Her latest books include Ancient Egyptian Society: Challenging Assumptions\, Exploring Approaches (Routledge\, 2023) and Recycling for Death: Coffin Reuse in Ancient Egypt and the Theban Royal Caches (The American University in Cairo Press\, October 2024). \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaArce\, or http://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:“Freedom and Family at Boyd Cabin (Buncombe County\, North Carolina)” -- Dr. Scotti Norman
DESCRIPTION:“Freedom and Family at Boyd Cabin (Buncombe County\, North Carolina)”\nLecture by\nDr. Scotti M. Norman\, Assistant Professor of Material Culture and Archaeology at Warren Wilson College \nMarch 18\, 2025\n7:30 p.m. ET\nDavidson College\nBelk Visual Arts Center 117\nDavidson\, NC \nFREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC \nAbout the lecture: \nThis talk will discuss the collaborative efforts of work at Boyd Cabin\, one of the first nineteenth and twentieth-century freedman homesteads in North Carolina. Through the integration of documentary research\, archaeological excavation\, and oral histories from the Boyd family\, this project attempts to forge new ties between archaeologists and descendant communities in the region. Preliminary excavation results indicate that the 14-person Boyd family maintained a thriving agricultural farm and built a communal space for family during a radically challenging post-emancipation\, post-bellum period in Appalachia. \nAbout the speaker:\nDr. Scotti M. Norman\, Assistant Professor of Material Culture and Archaeology at Warren Wilson College\, has investigated colonialism and the repercussions of intersectional and structural inequality in Chile\, Ecuador\, Peru\, and the United States. Her current research focuses on the forging of familial and communal ties in historically Black sites in North Carolina.

SUMMARY:Archaeology-Hour Livestream: Rosemary Joyce. “Complex Society Without Rulers”
DESCRIPTION:For many people\, the word “archaeology” conjures up images of monuments\, often interpreted as traces of the lives of powerful rulers who can seem to be inevitable parts of any urban\, agricultural society. But there are other stories archaeology can tell about societies in which there was no apparent ruler\, but nevertheless show the hallmarks of “complexity.” This lecture explores one such society\, the ancient Ulúa culture of northern Honduras\, neighbors to Classic Maya states. In Ulúa culture\, people used religion to reinforce social relations in a society of wealthy farmers who enjoyed artworks of extraordinary beauty… without rulers. Please join us in-person to watch this livestreamed Zoom lecture.

SUMMARY:Spring 2025 National Lecture by Dr. Kiersten Neumann: Collecting the Ancient World: Early Explorations\, Encyclopedic Museums\, and World’s Exhibitions
DESCRIPTION:Where is this artifact from? Who does it belong to? How did it get here? Who’s telling its story? Critical inquiry into the practice and politics of museums has reached a new zenith in contemporary discourse. From discussions of acquisition and repatriation to provenience (archaeological findspot) and provenance (an object’s ownership history) and the ethics of curation and modes of display\, museum and art professionals—and the general public alike—are deliberating on the concept of museums and the responsibilities of such institutions towards the collections in their care. This talk will explore the early history of museums and collecting practices with a focus on cultural heritage collections from West Asia—beginning with the archaeological explorations of “the Orient” and colonial collecting practices dating back to the nineteenth century\, followed by the creation of the “encyclopedic museum\,” the popularity of world’s exhibitions\, and the politics of representation and reception. \nShort bibliography and/or website on lecture topic: \nKevin McGeough. 2015.
