SUMMARY:Imhotep: The Man\, the Myth\, the Monster
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. Julia Troche\, Missouri State University\, Springfield: \n“Imhotep: The Man\, the Myth\, the Monster” \nSunday March 17\, 2024\, 3 PM Pacific Time\nRoom 140\, Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley\nThis in-person lecture will be recorded for later publication on YouTube. \nAbout the Lecture: \n“It comes to life!” is the tagline for the 1932 Universal film The Mummy wherein a reanimated Imhotep\, as the mummy horror icon\, brings terror and violence to all who encounter him. Imhotep\, in fact\, was a historical ancient Egyptian who is credited with engineering Egypt’s first pyramid\, the stepped pyramid at Saqqara for King Djoser (c. 2650 BCE). In antiquity he was venerated as a folk hero and eventually worshiped as a god. How and why did Imhotep become a horror icon? The answer is what we refer to as “Egyptomania\,” that is\, our obsession with and consumption of ancient Egypt throughout history. This talk invites audiences to follow Imhotep and his many legacies throughout history as a way to explore Egyptomania. But it is not all fun and amusement park rides\, as we consider some of the benefits and problems of Egyptomania in our everyday lives. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Julia Troche is an Egyptologist\, historian\, and award-winning educator. She holds a Ph.D. in Egyptology from Brown University and a B.A. in History from UCLA. Dr. Troche is currently Associate Professor at Missouri State University in Springfield\, MO\, and Visiting Scholar of Egyptology at Brown for her sabbatical (2023-24). She serves as a Governor for the Board of the American Research Center in Egypt (ARCE)\, is President and co-founder of ARCE-Missouri\, and for the American Society of Overseas Research (ASOR)\, she is co-chair of the diversity\, equity\, and inclusion committee and co-chair of the Archaeology of Egypt sessions for the annual meeting. Her first book\, Death\, Power\, and Apotheosis in Ancient Egypt: The Old and Middle Kingdoms was published in 2021 with Cornell University Press. She is currently working on a book about the god Ptah for Bloomsbury\, a textbook (with B. Brinkman) for Routledge\, and a series of articles on Egyptomania and Imhotep that she hopes to turn into a public-facing book. \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, http://www.arce-nc.org\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, and https://khentiamentiu.org.

SUMMARY:Jessi Halligan\, “Why underwater? The importance of submerged landscape research for understanding Pleistocene peoples in the New World”
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, March 19\, 2023\n7:30 p.m.\nBelk Visual Arts Center 117\nDavidson College\nDavidson\, NC \nThis lecture is FREE and open to the public. Please join us if you’re an archaeology enthusiast! \nAbout the lecture: \nPerhaps most people think of shipwrecks when underwater archaeology is mentioned\, but numerous formerly-terrestrial sites have survived drowning in our freshwater lakes and rivers and on our continental shelves. These sites can even be better preserved than their dry counterparts\, and in some cases they can help us answer some of the most pressing questions about people in the past. Thousands of Pleistocene artifacts have been discovered in Florida’s rivers and springs\, along with some of the best preserved early sites in the Americas. These sites are challenging archaeological models for the peopling of the Americas\, and are providing us with informaƟon about the lifeways of early Indigenous peoples in the New World. \nAbout the speaker: \nDr. Jessi Halligan\, Associate Professor of Anthropology at Florida State University\, specializes in geoarchaeology and underwater archaeology. She focuses on the initial peopling of the Americas through an active research program in submerged Paleoindian sites in Florida. This focus leads to complementary foci in hunter-gatherer societies\, geoarchaeology\, sea level rise and submerged landscape studies\, including underwater field methods. She has more than two decades of field and lab experience\, having conducted research and/or worked on Cultural Resource Management projects all over the Northeastern United States\, the Northern Plains\, Texas\, and the Southeast. Other major interests include climate change during the terminal Pleistocene and early Holocene\, coastal site preservation\, and human adaptation to major climate change.
