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.
