SUMMARY:Treasures from the Sea Floor: Military Finds from the Battle of the Aegates Islands
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Andrew L. Goldman\, Professor of History\, Gonzaga University \nOn 10 March\, 241 BCE\, the final naval battle of the First Punic War was fought off western Sicily\, where a large Roman fleet engaged an equally large Carthaginian fleet near the Aegates Islands. Almost 2300 years later\, the battle site has been located. Between 2005 and 2024\, a wide scatter of artifacts has been raised from the sea floor\, relics from the first maritime battlefield of ancient times which has ever been explored. This lecture will discuss briefly the field project and its background\, followed by an overview of the major finds\, including some of the earliest Latin inscriptions and Roman iconographic representations ever discovered. Among the more important artifacts brought to the surface are the military equipment finds: helmets\, swords\, and sling bullets.

SUMMARY:Of Cities and Landscapes: Results from the Polatlı (Türkiye) Landscape Archaeology and Survey Project (PLAS)
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Asst. Prof. Müge Durusu-Tanriover\, Temple University \nPolatlı Landscape Archaeology and Survey Project (PLAS) is a regional survey covering the district of Polatlı in Ankara (the capital of Türkiye)\, primarily known for its first millennium BCE archaeological heritage featuring the Phrygian capital\, Gordion. Since its inception in 2019\, PLAS has aimed to shed light on the relatively under-studied Bronze Age in this region\, with a particular focus on investigating the Hittite Empire’s imperial strategies along its western border. In this talk\, I will present the results of four seasons of fieldwork conducted between 2019 and 2023.

SUMMARY:Gordion: Recent Work and Unknotting Old Questions
DESCRIPTION:Recent Field Work at Gordion\nC. Brian Rose\, James B. Pritchard Professor of Archaeology\, Curator-in-Charge Penn Museum\, Mediterranean Section & Director of Excavations at Gordion\nRecent work has focused primarily on architectural conservation\, research on tumuli\, and remote sensing. On the south side of the Citadel Mound\, the newly discovered city gate appears to have been in use for over 1200 years\, from the 9th century BCE. to the 4th century CE\, It features an approach road nearly 100 m long. The discoveries within the Mosaic Building include the only stone omphalos to have been found in Asia Minor and a gilded ivory sphinx that probably adorned a throne. The 8th century Tumulus 52 included over 3\,000 beads of amber imported from the Baltic\, and the 8-10 year old child found within the wooden chamber may have been a member of the family of Midas. Gordion was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Site List in 2023\, the 20th site in Türkiye to be so honored. \nFrom Legend to Reality: Ancient Vehicles from the City of Gordion\nGareth Darbyshire\, Gordion Project Archivist and a Penn Museum Research Associate\nThe fabled\, prophetic Gordian Knot was associated with a cart or wagon that was linked in legend with Phrygian kingship\, and this vehicle was reportedly dedicated to a divine power at the citadel of Gordion. Recently\, the actual building in which this vehicle was housed has perhaps now been identified. More tangibly\, archaeological evidence for a number of ancient vehicles — seldom found anywhere — has been revealed by the Penn Museum’s longstanding excavations at Gordion. \nSome Ivory\, Bone and Horn Puzzles\nPhoebe Sheftel\, PhD\nAmong the nearly 1\,000 objects of bone\, ivory\, antler\, horn and shell recovered at Gordion between 1950 and 2005\, are three groups of pieces that still provoke puzzled interpretation. Thirty-nine bone objects found in Hellenistic contexts have a distinct rectangular shape\, often with pronged ends. Various interpretations have labeled them as handles or containers of some sort. A dozen examples of ivory attachments with cylinders engaged on flat or curved strips and found in Middle and Late Phrygian contexts have eluded explanation. Finally\, two horn pieces with three attachment holes have been compared to other objects dating from the 2nd millennium BCE to the Carolingian period (8th-9th CE).
