SUMMARY:Social Justice and Archaeology at the Bade Museum
DESCRIPTION:Since the recent global pandemic\, the Bade Museum has hosted a variety of online talks focused on the ancient Mediterranean and Middle Eastern world on a variety of themes related to modern social justice issues. Together with various partner institutions\, but always the Archaeological Research Facility at UC Berkeley\, staff has hosted over five and a half years of scholarly talks\, all of which are posted on our YouTube channel\, https://www.youtube.com/@bademuseum. While limited few can watch the talks through live streaming\, most views come later after each zoom video is uploaded to the web. In less than 6 years\, these videos have well over 50\,000 views\, a number that cannot be replicated in person. While topics like new approaches to ancient Nubia\, unsilencing the archives\, women and gender in the ancient world\, Phoenician women and gender in the homeland and diaspora\, and Disability in the ancient Middle East and Mediterranean might seem anachronistic; junior scholars and scholars on the margins of their fields have shown that they can study and publish work on antiquity relevant to modern issues while they themselves are breaking barriers in presenting their work to a globalized audience.\nA lecture by Dr. Aaron Brody\, Robert and Kathryn Riddell Professor of Bible and Archaeology and Director of the Badè Museum of Biblical Archaeology. We will begin at Berkeley time\, 5:10pm\, at the Badè Museum of Biblical Archaeology – 1798 Scenic Ave\, Berkeley\, CA.

SUMMARY:A Dealer\, an Insurance Salesman\, Seven University Museums\, Eighty-Eight Investors\, and Three Hundred Classical Antiquities: a Cautionary Tale – a Nancy Wilkie Lectureship in Archaeological Heritage
DESCRIPTION:This virtual talk will recount a recently-uncovered story of an unusual\, complex\, decades-long antiquities investment scheme orchestrated by Royal-Athena Galleries\, a prominent Manhattan-based antiquities dealer\, that did not end well for most stakeholders. It will also examine the larger ethical implications of the story\, raising questions about the relationship of museums to the art market. It also asks\, is financial investing in art ever a good idea? This talk is sponsored by the Nancy Wilkie Lectureship in Archaeological Heritage.

SUMMARY:From Berlin to Berkeley: The History of the Edward Gans Collection of Seals and Its Hidden Gems – a Ellen and Charles S. La Follette Lecture
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures currently houses the Edward Gans Collection of Seals\, comprising almost seven hundred seals and seal-related objects from a variety of periods\, extending from the Neolithic Middle East to Post-classical Mesoamerica. Since 2023\, a new team of Berkeley scholars has been working on the collection to prepare it for digital publication\, and this talk arises from the provenance research undertaken as part of that project. This talk will highlight the fascinating story of how the Gans Collection came to be and the legacy of Nazi persecution that shaped the collection’s history\, while also featuring several Sasanian seals in the collection of particular significance. This is one of the annual Ellen and Charles S. La Follette Lectures.
