SUMMARY:The Past in the Past: The Power of Monuments in Ruin presented by Dr. Art Joyce
DESCRIPTION:This presentation examines two ruined monumental architectural complexes in prehispanic Oaxaca\, Mexico: The Main Plaza of the mountaintop city of Monte Albán in the Valley of Oaxaca and the acropolis of Río Viejo on the coastal floodplain of the Lower Río Verde. Both complexes were built during the Formative period and became the ceremonial centers of important cities and foci of politico-religious life for larger regions. The two complexes\, however\, had vastly different histories from their initial construction through their time as ceremonial centers and their afterlives as decaying ruins. Although both fell to ruin during the prehispanic era\, they continued to be places of intensive affect that were central to the constitution and transformation of broader communities in their respective regions. Drawing on new materialist approaches as well as on Native American ontological perspectives in Oaxaca and elsewhere in Mesoamerica\, I argue that even as ruins\, both complexes were powerful animate beings linked to agricultural fertility\, sacrifice\, ancestors\, and cycles of creation. The presentation considers how the material vibrancy of these ruins differed in ways that both brought together and destabilized community and hierarchy. After the abandonment of Monte Albán\, its Main Plaza\, viewed from afar by the people in the valley below\, continued to assemble substances important to human well-being including rain\, earth\, mountain\, sky\, ancestors\, and divinities. People from communities in the valley periodically journeyed to the plaza to make sacrificial offerings thereby constituting a broader identity and community\, although one that was much changed relative to the time when Monte Albán was a city. In contrast\, the earthen architecture of the acropolis\, located in the center of Río Viejo\, rapidly eroded and decayed in the tropical lowland climate. The Late Classic period reemergence of hierarchy in the lower Río Verde Valley activated material memories of rupture held in the ruins that threatened and resisted new forms of community and political authority. As a result\, nobles were drawn back to the architectural complex to appropriate that power though the emplacement of a complex offering that may have healed and reanimated the building. The processes of ruination at the two monumental complexes discussed here therefore actualized different capacities contributing to the gathering of a new kind of community in one case\, and its resistance and eventual dissolution in the other. This presentation makes the broader point that even ruined buildings can be powerful in ways that threaten\, resist\, empower\, or transform human projects.

SUMMARY:Stress\, Sex\, and Death: Health and Survival in the Context of Medieval Famine and Plague presented by Dr. Sharon DeWitte
DESCRIPTION:In the 14th-century\, Afro-Eurasia was struck by a devastating pandemic of bubonic plague\, now often called the Black Death\, that killed an estimated 30-60% of some affected populations. Dr. DeWitte will discuss her bioarchaeological research\, focusing on the skeletal remains of people who died before\, during\, and after the Black Death in London\, England. This work aims to clarify the biosocial factors that shaped vulnerability to historical plague mortality and deepen the temporal scope of understanding of the syndemic interactions that shape epidemic disease experiences and outcomes. Analysis of demographic trends before and after the Black Death in London has revealed evidence of declines in life expectancies and\, by inference\, health for people before the Black Death\, but improvements in health afterwards. Examination of patterns of skeletal indicators of stress reveal differences between males and females\, which might reflect variation in sensitivity to stressors or differences in dietary resources in the aftermath of the Black Death. Dr. DeWitte will highlight future directions in medieval plague bioarchaeology\, including analyses of the potential effects of migration on population-level patterns of health in the context of famine and plague.

SUMMARY:A Late Bronze Age “Naval Station” at Kalamianos (Saronic Gulf)\, Greece? presented by Dr. Daniel Pullen
DESCRIPTION:The Saronic Harbors Archaeological Research Project has documented the Late Bronze Age (14th-13th cent. BCE) harbor town at Kalamianos on the Saronic Gulf coast of the Corinthia\, Greece. We suggest this site might be the Homeric town of “Eïones” which later Strabo identified as a “naval station.” The implications of this identification of Kalamianos as a naval station are evaluated in light of our current understanding of the archaeology of maritime culture\, both commercial and military\, of the Mycenaeans and other Late Bronze Age peoples of the Aegean. The lack of identifiable maritime infrastructure – let alone that for specialized military activity – outside of Crete\, including at Kalamianos\, suggests that such installations were not essential for LBA maritime activities elsewhere in the Aegean.

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:Experiencing Epiphany in the Ancient Greek Sanctuary presented by Dr. Jess Paga (William & Mary)
DESCRIPTION:Sensory studies of embodiment have gained traction in recent years as unparalleled tools for examining the vicissitudes of ancient lived experience. When used in conjunction with cognitive studies\, it becomes possible to tease out the links between (over)stimulation\, deprivation\, and religious transformation. Kinesthetics\, in particular\, can facilitate a nuanced embodied account of approach\, (in)accessibility\, and viewshed orchestration\, by prioritizing the role of the body in movement within the landscapes and edifices of the built environment. The intersection of space\, place\, and body within the religious setting of the sanctuary thus becomes a nexus of gradually unfolding experience\, understanding\, and transformation. \nThrough a series of three case studies drawn from the 5th-3rd c. BCE\, this talk reveals the role of multisensory experience in the religious transformation that lies at the heart of Greek ritual practice by foregrounding kinesthetics as the link between the human participant and sacred built environment.

SUMMARY:Caesar's Cervisia
DESCRIPTION:Caesar’s Cervisia presented by Travis Rupp (CU Boulder) \nExaminations of Roman cuisine often downplay the role of beer in the ancient Roman diet seeing it as a symbol of barbarity. This presentation examines the plausibility of beer as a standard component of the Roman soldier’s diet and seeks to highlight when it may have become necessary for military advancement. Julius Caesar’s reliance on auxiliary forces to campaign in the North from 58-51 BCE ensured that cultures known for producing beer influenced legionary forces reliant on local resources to survive. This lecture also asserts the implausibility of wine consumption amongst Caesar’s men and concludes that the acceptance of beer as a standard component of the Roman soldier’s diet begins with Caesar’s campaigns in Gaul and Britain.

SUMMARY:Men and Women in the Wild West: The Production of a Red-Light District in Ouray\, Colorado given by Prof. Mary Van Buren (Colorado State University)
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s studies of prostitution\, a key component of red-light districts\, have focused almost exclusively on female sex workers. While an important corrective to the omission of women from historical accounts of the West\, the roles played by men in the construction\, organization\, and experiences offered by red-light districts have been largely ignored. This talk re-integrates men into the analysis of the Vanoli Block\, an infamous part of the red-light district in late 19th and early 20th century Ouray. Multiple masculinities – including the middle and upper-class Victorian men who organized the construction and operation of the district\, working class patrons\, and Chinese laundry workers – as well as women engaged in the sex trade\, are implicated in the creation of this distinctly Western venue.

SUMMARY:The Becoming of Mesoamerican Pigments: The Olmec presented by Dr. Gerardo Gutierrez (CU Boulder)
DESCRIPTION:This lecture presents a new study of pigments and coloring materials that offers a unique window into the development of indigenous science\, ideology\, and learning processes to innovate knowledge. The color palettes of Juxtlahuaca\, Cauadzidziqui and Oxtotitlan caves\, all located in the state Guerrero\, Mexico\, will be compared and evaluated and I will propose how and why the Olmecs began a technological revolution in the manufacture of colors in early Mesoamerica.

SUMMARY:Landscapes of Predation: Exploring Hostile Social Environments in Small-Scale Societies presented by Dr. Catherine Cameron (CU Boulder\, Anthropology)
DESCRIPTION:Ancient social environments are difficult to reconstruct\, and archaeologists have a much poorer grasp of how the social environment affects where and how people live. One sort of social behavior that is often visible archaeologically is violence: raiding and warfare. Using ethnohistoric cases\, I identify “landscapes of predation” created by intense social violence. I will describe the archaeological signatures that violence produces and illustrate the utility of this concept with examples from the American Southwest and Southeast.

SUMMARY:The Settlement Ecology of Emerging Commercial Dairy Farming in 19th-century Upstate New York
DESCRIPTION:This lecture by Dr. Eric Jones (CU Boulder) discusses the development of commercial farming in the mid-19th century was a critical component of industrialization in the United States. It examines when\, how\, and why farmers in the Town of Fenner\, New York began this transition and helped to create one of the most productive dairy industries in the country. The result was a focus on diversified farming and community economic well-being over individual financial independence.

SUMMARY:The Arizona Sicily Project: Survey and Excavations in the province of Trapani presented by Dr. Emma Blake
DESCRIPTION:A decade of fieldwork in westernmost Sicily has revealed a previously unnoticed pattern: high quantities of North African artifacts in virtually all periods\, from the Paleolithic to the present day. From prehistoric stone tools\, to Carthaginian amphoras and Roman finewares\, to the soda bottles of contemporary migrants\, a picture emerges of a deep and enduring localized connection between Sicily and Tunisia. This talk presents the material traces of Tunisian influence in western Sicily from two field surveys and a new excavation\, and explores the significance and nature of those complex interactions across the Sicilian Channel. \nBio: Emma Blake (Ph.D. University of Cambridge)\, is Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Arizona. She is Editor-in-Chief (with Robert Schon) of the American Journal of Archaeology. Blake is a Mediterranean archaeologist\, focusing on identity construction in Italy in the second and first millennia BCE. She is the author of Social Networks and Regional Identity in Bronze Age Italy (Cambridge University Press 2014)\, as well as numerous articles. She has conducted fieldwork in western Sicily for many years and directs an archaeological field survey tracing the extent of Tunisian influence in western Sicily in all periods. She is co-directing new excavations at the ancient city of Segesta\, Sicily.

SUMMARY:"They are still teaching us": Community Bioarchaeology and the Sisters of Loretto Project presented by Dr. Lauren Hosek
DESCRIPTION:In the summer of 2022\, construction necessitated the relocation of a small 19th /20th century cemetery of nuns from southwest Denver. Before their reinterment\, a team of local researchers and students worked with the Loretto Community to undertake a bioarchaeological analysis of the remains of the Sisters of Loretto. This ongoing project highlights community collaboration\, education\, and historical memory in the spirit of these women and their service to the Denver community. \nBio: Lauren Hosek (PhD Syracuse University 2020) is an assistant professor of Anthropology at the University of Colorado Boulder and a social bioarchaeologist with interests in skeletal approaches to embodied experiences of identity and social change. Broadly\, her interests also include skeletal plasticity and the life course\, paleopathology\, materiality\, religion and the body\, and mortuary archaeology. Her research integrates skeletal analysis with the study of material culture and historical narratives to address the interactions between human bodies and their broader social\, cultural\, and physical environments. She is currently examining diet and mobility in early medieval Central Europe through the lens of stable isotopes\, skeletal dental analysis\, and archaeological data. She uses similar techniques to study different communities in 19th-century America.
