SUMMARY:A Gateway into the Desert: History\, Exploration\, and Cyclical Rediscovery of Wadi Tumilat
DESCRIPTION:The American Research Center in Egypt\, Northern California Chapter\, and the Near Eastern Studies Department\, University of California\, Berkeley\, invite you to attend a lecture by Dr. Aleksandra Ksiezak\, University of Toronto\, CSU San Bernardino: \n“A Gateway into the Desert: History\, Exploration\, and Cyclical Rediscovery of Wadi Tumilat” \nSunday\, December 11\, 2022\, 3 PM Pacific Standard Time\nRoom 126 Social Sciences Building (formerly Barrows Hall)\nUC Berkeley \nNo Zoom meeting is scheduled for this lecture. \nAbout the Lecture: \nOnce a distributary of the Nile\, Wadi Tumilat is a dry river valley in the Eastern Nile Delta. In antiquity\, the wadi was a major communication artery for trade between Egypt and her neighbours to the east\, and its importance was recognized by many great strategic minds of their day. Across Wadi Tumilat are numerous archaeological sites\, dating from the 3rd millennium BCE to the Late Roman Period. Accompanying them was a navigable canal—an impressive waterway that not only provided the arid valley with water but allowed transportation of goods and people in and out of Egypt. While the ancient canal and its surrounding ruins were a source of fascination for ancient geographers\, and historians\, and were recorded in their writings\, it took centuries for these antiquities to re-emerge in the letters\, reports\, and memoirs of early European travellers to Egypt. \nThis lecture aims to summarize the history of the discovery of Wadi Tumilat and our understanding of its place in Egyptian archaeology. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Aleksandra Ksiezak is a field archaeologist\, Egyptologist\, and ceramicist specializing in macro-and microscopic analyses of Egyptian and Nubian pottery. She obtained her Ph.D. in Egyptology at the University of Toronto (Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations) where she focused on the analysis of the ceramic material from the Second Intermediate Period Hyksos settlement at Tell el-Maskhuta excavated by the Wadi Tumilat Project (WTP) during the late 1970s/early 80s. She is currently involved in research on the identification and study of the Middle Bronze Age trade routes involving Wadi Tumilat through the identification of imported objects and their local imitations identified at Tell el-Maskhuta and the neighbouring sites. Both her past and present research deal with the broader question of migration and mobility in Egypt\, the Sinai Peninsula\, and the Levant during the Bronze Age. She currently holds the position of W. Benson Harer Egyptology Scholar in Residence at California State University\, San Bernardino. \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:Second Sunday Culture Films: At the Edge of the Bazaar
DESCRIPTION:The 2022-2023 culture film series Folklife\, a joyful celebration of local folkways: writing\, storytelling\, visual arts\, handcrafts\, cuisine\, and other forms of expression which make places and people distinctive and create bridges to connect them with other cultures around the world. \nAt the Edge of the Bazaar\nDir. Abdukadir Upur and Dilmurat Tohti (2015) \nTwo rural Uyghur craftsmen work on their traditional handcrafts before the repression of their culture by the Chinese government deepens.The film\, made by two young Uyghur filmmakers while still at university\, gives a window into centuries-old material culture\, as well as a glimpse of the bazaar where these goods were once sold\, before government repression caused the bazaars and its craftspeople to disappear. \nSpeakers: Darren Byler\, University of British Columbia\, in conversation with David Dettman\, Center for East Asian Studies\, with new subtitles by Dr. Byler & Qanat Wolf.

SUMMARY:Stolen Legacy: A Conversation with the Artist and Curator
DESCRIPTION:Adult Events \nIn partnership with internationally-renowned artist\, composer\, and educator Hannibal Lokumbe\, the Penn Museum presents Stolen Legacy\, a libretto and musical commentary on the removal of art from the African continent. This provocative piece responds to how\, in Lokumbe’s own words\, “the exchange of money for art created expressly for the spiritual maintenance of a tribe and/or nation can create a lasting physiological wound to the culture from which it was removed.” He adds that “nowhere is this more evident than in the case of African art.” This program is part of the Museum’s own reflective process about our institutional history\, which is tied to colonialist and racist narratives\, and our work to reconcile our past with restorative practices. \nBe a part of this ongoing conversation about the history of museums and about ethical stewardship of the legacy of the past. \nAs part of a multi-tiered experience that includes classroom visits and a free public performance\, join Hannibal Lokumbe\, composer/author of Stolen Legacy\, for a conversation about the the intersections of art\, the cultural legacy of colonialism\, and monetary exchange\, open to both University of Pennsylvania students and the general public at the Penn Museum on January 13 at 3 pm. Dr. Tukufu Zuberi\, Curator of our Africa Galleries and Lasry Family Professor of Race Relations in Penn’s Sociology Department\, will facilitate the discussion between the artist and the audience. \nAbout Hannibal Lokumbe \nClassic composer and jazz trumpeter Hannibal Lokumbe (né Marvin Peterson) has been celebrating and commemorating the African-American experience through music and words for over four decades. Lokumbe’s work has been commissioned and performed by symphonies and orchestras across the country\, including the Philadelphia Chamber Orchestra\, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra\, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra \, and the Philadelphia Orchestra. His oratorio “African Portraits” has been performed over two hundred times by orchestras across America since its Carnegie Hall debut in 1990\, and was recorded with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Daniel Barenboim. He has received numerous fellowships and awards\, including from the NEA\, and is a Lifetime Inductee to the Harlem Jazz Hall of Fame.

SUMMARY:Archaeology & Ale: Making Sense of Marbles
DESCRIPTION:The current OI Museum exhibition\, Making Sense of Marbles: Roman Sculpture at the OI (through March 12\, 2023)\, presents to the public for the first time the OI’s full collection of Roman sculpture. Assembled in the 1950s—through acquisitions from both the OI’s excavations at Ptolemais in Libya and the international art market\, this group exemplifies the importance of revisiting artifact and archival collections\, with new questions\, perspectives\, technology\, and scrutiny. Museums do not require new artifacts\, new acquisitions in order to tell new stories. In this talk\, Kiersten Neumann\, exhibition co-curator and curator of the OI Museum\, will walk through the latest considerations of the identities and significance of these individual sculptures while delving into timely discussions related to collecting practices\, provenience and provenance\, archaeology and the art market\, and display practices that seek greater transparency and public engagement.

SUMMARY:Dr. Brian Buchanan: “More than just a mead-hall\, a world’s wonder\, eighth of seven: Reassessing the archaeology and landscape of Yeavering\, Northumberland”
DESCRIPTION:The iconic early medieval royal palace of Yeavering is located at the base of the Cheviot Hills along the modern-day Anglo-Scottish border in a quiet bucolic valley. In the 6th century AD\, it was one of the key royal settlements and assembly sites of the early medieval kingdom of Northumbria\, linked to the site noted in Bede’s histories as King Edwin’s royal villa of Ad Gefrin. The initial investigations of the site\, led by Dr. Brian Hope-Taylor\, revealed a multi-faceted complex containing large timber-framed Halles\, cemeteries\, and evidences of reuse and reinterpretation of prehistoric features. Archaeologists from Durham University\, Eastern Washington University\, and the Gefrin Trust have restarted investigations of the site and its environs using remote sensing\, landscape archaeology\, and excavations. This presentation discusses the historic and archaeological background of the site\, its importance for the development of early medieval Britain\, and how new findings are re-shaping our understanding of this important site.\nDr. Brian Buchanan\, Eastern Washington University.

SUMMARY:The Phoenician City of La Fonteta\, Guardamar\, Spain
DESCRIPTION:The Phoenician city of La Fonteta\, Guardamar\, Spain \nDr. Alberto J. Lorrio\, Dr. Mariano Torres\, and Ester López Rosendo \nLa Fonteta is a site of urban character dated in the Early Iron Age (8th-6th centuries BC). It is placed on a coastal promontory next to the mouth of the river Segura. Archaeological excavations carried out from 1996-2002 and then from 2018-2019 have provided a settlement sequence from the late 8th to the third quarter of the 6th century BC. The earliest phases of the site show heavy craft and metallurgy activity\, besides houses of several rooms built with clay and mudbrick walls organized in an urban layout. A strong defensive system was built c. 600 BC and a new urban layout. The houses of this new phase show one or two rooms\, although some of them are more complex. There were open areas between these buildings with worship areas\, communal bread ovens\, and garbage dumps. La Fonteta also was an important port which funneled a heavy trading activity\, as evidenced by the rich material culture attested\, with a varied assemblage of pottery with several types and origins\, a heavy manufacturing of metallic items\, as well as prestige goods\, some of the very exotic such as ostrich eggs\, ivory items\, necklace beads\, or scarabs. \n \n \n \nLecture hosted by Friends of AIA-New York. \nFor more information and free publications about the site of La Fonteta\, visit: https://ovc.gva.es/es/estudis-i-publicacions/estudis-i-publicacions.

SUMMARY:Imagining a Greek Home for an Egyptian Goddess: Time\, Landscape\, and Architecture in Greek Sanctuaries to Isis presented by Dr. Lindsey Mazurek
DESCRIPTION:When Isis first arrived on Greek shores in the 3rd century BCE\, her new followers had to build sanctuaries appropriate to an Egyptian goddess. In the process of imagining a place for their Greek Isis to dwell\, devotees came up with a wide range of eclectic solutions that intertwined local needs\, imperialist fantasy\, and fantastical chronology. These sanctuaries do not draw from contemporaneous Egyptian art and architecture\, but rather from Greek stereotypes about Egypt and the Nile River. Isis’ Greek temples\, I argue\, allowed Greek devotees to imagine Egypt in a way that responded to their own experiences as provincial subjects of the Roman Empire. \nI begin with a brief overview of Isis’ and Sarapis cults’ arrival in Greece in the early Hellenistic period. Then\, I turn to literary evidence\, in which Greco-Roman authors from Herodotus to Pliny the Younger characterize Egypt as a timeless and strange place and highlight its unique flora and fauna. I next trace the popularity of these ideas in wall paintings and mosaics\, where depictions of the Nile convey ideas of otherness and imperial control. I conclude by discussing the sanctuaries of the Egyptian gods at Marathon and Gortyna. The sanctuary at Marathon combines imaginative architecture that resembles Pharaonic Egyptian temples\, archaizing sculpture that evoked a timeless Greco-Egyptian past\, and a riverine setting that recalled the Nile Delta. At Gortyna\, the sanctuary includes both an underground water crypt that echoed the Nilometers used to measure the river’s annual flood and cattle statuettes that personified the river’s waters. Taken together\, this evidence suggests that Greek devotees used sanctuary spaces to explore Greek conceptions of Egypt as an imagined\, far-off\, and ancient place that they could control in much the same way that Rome controlled and imagined Greece.

SUMMARY:Communicating with the Ancestors: Archaeology at Oxmoor Plantation\, Louisville\, Kentucky
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn what Kentucky Archaeological Survey archaeologists have been doing at Oxmoor Farm in Louisville\, Kentucky for the last year and a half. Lori Stahlgren\, Project Archaeologist with KAS\, will be speaking about this ongoing project. In 2021\, the Oxmoor Farm Foundation hired KAS to conduct a survey around extant buildings that once served as dwellings for enslaved people in the early 19th century and as dwellings for farm workers post-bellum and into the 20th century. Oxmoor plans to create museum space to commemorate the lives of the enslaved African Americans and to tell their stories\, both separate and intertwined with the Bullitt family\, who owned the plantation. The survey found intact archaeological deposits around the extant buildings and investigations extended into the interior of the buildings. The work thus far has generated thousands of artifacts and new lines of research involving the enslaved people at Oxmoor. This discussion will describe the work to date and present some of the findings and artifacts discovered\, as well as efforts to connect with descendants of the people enslaved at Oxmoor.
