SUMMARY:Building a 13th and 14th Century Multi-Ethnic Community at 25BD1 in Northeastern Nebraska presented by Dr. Doug Bamforth
DESCRIPTION:Thousands of Plains farmers settled along Ponca creek in northeastern Nebraska during the latter decades of the 13th century\, in the midst of a wave of social change and dislocation across the mid-continent as Cahokia collapsed and drought spread widely over much of North America. In contrast to the small homesteads on the central Plains prior to this time\, the Ponca creek sites range up to 200 acres\, suggesting a community bigger than anything that had existed in the region before. Potters at the site made classic Plains vessels and classic midwestern Oneota vessels in households that were nearly side-by-side and mixed these styles together on other pots. This lecture addresses the social changes at work in the mid-continent at this time along with the history of work on Ponca creek from the 1930s to the present\, including geophysical prospecting and excavation in the last few years. Viewed in the context of the Plains as a whole\, the changes there represent a sea-change in social formations and likely mark the appearance of the modern Pawnee and Arikara nations.

SUMMARY:Archaeology in Action: Collaboration to Reclaim Native American Ancestral lands
DESCRIPTION:Native American tribes across the U.S. have historically been dispossessed of their traditional homelands lands through legal maneuvering\, formal policy\, and outright deceit. Working with the Penn Cultural Heritage Center\, the Colfax-Todds Valley Consolidated Tribe of California received some of their historic homelands back in 2021. Since then\, the Tribe has collaborated with the Placer County Land Trust to return additional homelands to tribal ownership. Dr. Brian Daniels of the PennCHC is joined by Clyde Prout III and Pamela Cubbler of the Colfax-Todds Valley Consolidated Tribe to discuss how this collaboration came to be\, and how Native American tribes and university museums can work together to realize tribal goals. \nCo-Sponsored by the Penn Cultural Heritage Center.

SUMMARY:Archeology in Pajamas: Virtual Lecture Series #2
DESCRIPTION:The Arkansas Archeological Survey and Arkansas Archeological Society are co-hosting a new Virtual Lecture Series\, called “Archeology in Pajamas\,” from Fall 2024 through Spring 2025. Have you been interested in attending a talk but weren’t wanting to travel far distances\, battle inclement weather\, or leave the house because you aren’t feeling up to coming to an in-person talk? Then\, this virtual Zoom lecture series is for you! We have a wide range of topics presented by speakers from varied parts of the country\, so there is sure to be something for everyone. To attend\, please register using the QR code on the attached flyer\, or by clicking the link below. These lectures are free and open to the public; anyone is welcome to (virtually) attend. You will need to individually register for each talk\, and more information about each will be released as the dates approach. \nDecember Presentation:\nDr. Julie Zimmermann\, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville\n“Storytelling in the Creation of Cahokia\, a Native American Theater State” \nTalk Abstract: Cahokia might be understood as the capital of a Native American theater state which drew people to it and spread its influence by attracting followers through theatrical rituals. Of those rituals\, storytelling was primary\, because stories create worldview and give meaning to all other rituals. Cahokian stories were embodied in artworks made at and disseminated from Cahokia. Primary among these stories was that of a hero who wore human head earrings. Cosmological and goddess stories were also told by Cahokians\, but the stories of heroes are those most commonly depicted in Braden-style artworks found far from Cahokia. The dissemination of hero stories might support the notion that Cahokia was a theater state\, and the heroic epic was a tool of statecraft central to the growth of that state. Cahokians created their world through stories\, but it was through hero stories that they grew their authority in far-flung societies. \nREGISTER HERE: https://uark.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_FoGFl_bwTcKNwQFfFVpPCw#/registration

SUMMARY:Researching in the arc-“hives”: Ancient Egyptian honey and beekeeping
DESCRIPTION:In-person lecture\nSaturday\, December 14\, 3:30 pm EST\nPenn Museum\, Classroom 2\nA holiday party will follow the lecture \nSpeaker: Dr. Shelby Justl \nTitle: Researching in the arc-“hives”: Ancient Egyptian honey and beekeeping \nAbstract:\nWith no sugarcane until 710 AD\, honey was the major sweetener for ancient Egyptian food and wines\, an important ingredient in medicine\, and a valuable tribute commodity. Illustrations of apiculture are surprisingly rare and a lack of representation may indicate honey was a royal prerogative at least in the Old and Middle Kingdoms. However\, honey production appears to be a more expansive industry from the New Kingdom onwards. \nThis talk assesses the extent of royal and temple control over beekeeping from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period through beekeeping titles\, New Kingdom letters\, the Wilbour Papyrus\, Abydos Stela of Sheshonq\, and Zenon archives. Location and size of beekeepers’ land-holdings and hives\, productivity levels\, and evidence of honey grading\, transport\, and the taxation of beekeepers may suggest honey production as a larger scale industry than previously thought. A snapshot of the archaeological site of Abydos and excavated honey pots may also indicate the extent of state level production facilities and the industrial scale of honey gathering\, storage\, and use. \nSpeaker Bio:\nDr. Shelby Justl is a lecturer in the Critical Writing Program here at UPenn. Her courses focus on archaeology and the ancient Egyptian world including such topics as Egyptomania\, pseudo-archaeology\, and world mythology. She has a PhD in NELC from UPenn and a MA with distinction in Egyptology from the University of Liverpool. After researching and publishing an ostracon from Penn excavations in Abydos that discussed trade of semiprecious stones\, her PhD dissertation concentrated on the administration and control of the ancient Egyptian semiprecious stone industry; in acquisition\, quarrying\, processing\, and distribution. She is currently editing this to be published as a book. Dr. Justl also is deeply interested in another “luxury” product for the ancient Egyptians\, honey! Still in the research stages\, she intends to publish a book on Egyptian honey\, beekeeping\, and the administration/operation of the industry. \n******************\nLectures 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. The ARCE Pennsylvania Chapter (ARCE-PA) is the local branch of the national institution. We host monthly events including scholarly lectures\, Egyptian-themed workshops\, social events\, and guided tours of the Penn Museum’s Egyptian galleries.

SUMMARY:Rediscovering Egypt's Lost Dinosaurs
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 Dr. Matt Lamanna\, Carnegie Museum of Natural History: \nRediscovering Egypt’s Lost Dinosaurs \nSunday December 15\, 2024\, 3 PM Pacific Standard Time\nRm 56 Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley \nThis is an in-person lecture and is not virtual.\nThe lecture will not be recorded. No registration is required \nAbout the Lecture: \nEgypt’s vast archaeological record and engaging material culture have long excited people around the world\, but did you know that this region’s history stretches back well into the Mesozoic Era\, or Age of Dinosaurs? In the early 20th century\, a series of German expeditions recovered fossils of several new and extraordinary ~95-million-year-old dinosaur species from the Bahariya Oasis in Egypt’s Western Desert\, most famously the enormous sail-backed semi-aquatic predator Spinosaurus aegyptiacus. Tragically\, however\, all these fossils were destroyed during a British Royal Air Force bombing of Munich in late April 1944. In 2000\, a collaborative Egyptian-American research team became the first scientists to discover dinosaur fossils in the Bahariya Oasis in nearly a century; among these were a partial skeleton of a new and gigantic sauropod (long-necked plant-eating dinosaur) that was later named Paralititan stromeri. More recently\, researchers from the Mansoura University Vertebrate Paleontology Center in Mansoura\, Egypt have collected additional\, important dinosaur fossils from Bahariya\, and moreover have expanded their paleontological efforts to include geologically younger (~75-million-year-old) sites in the Kharga and Dakhla oases. Foremost among their finds from the latter is another new sauropod\, Mansourasaurus shahinae\, which constitutes one of the best-preserved late Mesozoic-aged land-living backboned animals known from the entire African continent. Collectively\, these discoveries have cast unprecedented light on Egypt’s remarkable dinosaurs\, helping to restore a scientific legacy that was lost during the Second World War. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Matt Lamanna is the Mary R. Dawson Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology and the senior dinosaur researcher at Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. Originally from the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York\, he received his B.Sc. from Hobart College in 1997 and his M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1999 and 2004. Within the past 26 years\, he has directed or co-directed field expeditions to Antarctica\, Argentina\, Australia\, China\, Croatia\, Egypt\, Greenland\, and the western United States that have resulted in the discovery of more than 20 new species of dinosaurs and other fossil animals from the Cretaceous Period\, the third and final time period of the Age of Dinosaurs; indeed\, he is one of only a handful of people to have found dinosaur fossils on all seven continents. Lamanna served as chief scientific advisor to Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s $36M “Dinosaurs in Their Time” exhibition and has appeared on television programs for PBS (NOVA)\, the Discovery Channel\, the National Geographic Channel\, the History Channel\, A&E\, the Science Channel\, and many more. \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. A map of the campus is available online at http://www.berkeley.edu/map/ . \nAbout Northern California ARCE: \nFor more information\, please visit https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, and https://khentiamentiu.org.
