SUMMARY:Great Lecture: Histories of Historic Preservation in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Historic preservation has rarely been a subject taken up by historians. In an effort to address this ironic situation\, this talk recounts some of the main themes and critiques shaping the development of built heritage and its preservation in the U.S.—and how this process was itself shaped by periodic reimagining of the American past\, as well as by international movements such as UNESCO’s World Heritage Convention. \nSpeaker: Randall Mason\, Professor of City & Regional Planning/Historic Preservation\, Weitzman School of Design

SUMMARY:Stolen Legacy: A Conversation with the Artist and Curator
DESCRIPTION:Adult Events \nIn partnership with internationally-renowned artist\, composer\, and educator Hannibal Lokumbe\, the Penn Museum presents Stolen Legacy\, a libretto and musical commentary on the removal of art from the African continent. This provocative piece responds to how\, in Lokumbe’s own words\, “the exchange of money for art created expressly for the spiritual maintenance of a tribe and/or nation can create a lasting physiological wound to the culture from which it was removed.” He adds that “nowhere is this more evident than in the case of African art.” This program is part of the Museum’s own reflective process about our institutional history\, which is tied to colonialist and racist narratives\, and our work to reconcile our past with restorative practices. \nBe a part of this ongoing conversation about the history of museums and about ethical stewardship of the legacy of the past. \nAs part of a multi-tiered experience that includes classroom visits and a free public performance\, join Hannibal Lokumbe\, composer/author of Stolen Legacy\, for a conversation about the the intersections of art\, the cultural legacy of colonialism\, and monetary exchange\, open to both University of Pennsylvania students and the general public at the Penn Museum on January 13 at 3 pm. Dr. Tukufu Zuberi\, Curator of our Africa Galleries and Lasry Family Professor of Race Relations in Penn’s Sociology Department\, will facilitate the discussion between the artist and the audience. \nAbout Hannibal Lokumbe \nClassic composer and jazz trumpeter Hannibal Lokumbe (né Marvin Peterson) has been celebrating and commemorating the African-American experience through music and words for over four decades. Lokumbe’s work has been commissioned and performed by symphonies and orchestras across the country\, including the Philadelphia Chamber Orchestra\, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra\, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra \, and the Philadelphia Orchestra. His oratorio “African Portraits” has been performed over two hundred times by orchestras across America since its Carnegie Hall debut in 1990\, and was recorded with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Daniel Barenboim. He has received numerous fellowships and awards\, including from the NEA\, and is a Lifetime Inductee to the Harlem Jazz Hall of Fame.

SUMMARY:In Between: A Play Written and Performed by Ibrahim Miari
DESCRIPTION:In Between is an award-winning\, semi-autobiographical one-man show that portrays the complexities and contradictions inherent in Palestinian-Israeli identity. On the precipice between two cultures stands Ibrahim Miari\, son of a Palestinian Muslim father and Jewish Israeli mother. In this riveting and thought-provoking one-man show\, written and performed by Miari\, he recalls his childhood in Israel and brings us into the complexities and contradictions that define his life “In Between” two worlds. With deftness\, wit\, and humor\, Miari transcends today’s political distractions and reminds us of the deeper inner struggles and bonds that link us all. \nThe play touches upon issues such as identity\, culture\, religion\, traditions\, and the tensions between Jews and Arabs\, Israelis and Palestinians. Miari has performed the show at theater festivals\, universities\, Hillels\, synagogues\, and churches across the United States\, as well as at international theater festivals\, where it received the Best Show Award at the Thesips International Monodrama Festival and the Audience Favorite Award at the Bitola International Monodrama Festival. \nAfter the performance Miari will offer a “talk-back\,” giving audience members the opportunity to ask questions\, discuss issues that the play brought up for them\, and engage in dialogue with one another. \nBefore the show\, enjoy the Penn Museum’s new Eastern Mediterranean gallery\, open two hours prior to start time.

SUMMARY:American Research Center in Egypt- Pennsylvania Chapter (ARCE-PA) Lecture: Dr. Luigi Prada
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 15 \nDr. Luigi Prada\nAsst. Professor of Egyptology\, 
Uppsala University (Sweden) \n“If a crocodile has sex with her\, she will die swiftly”:
 Dreams and Divination in Ancient Egypt” \n3:30pm\nClassroom L2

\, Penn Museum \nAbstract \nIn the ancient world\, the Egyptians had a reputation for excelling in divination\, the practice of gaining knowledge about the future via occult channels. Many types of divination were known and habitually practiced in ancient Egypt\, primarily by temple priests who employed specific handbooks for this purpose. Such arts included astrology\, the study of the behavior of animals (so-called animal omina)\, oil divination (aka lecanomancy)\, and more. But one particularly popular branch of divination was oneiromancy\, that is\, dream interpretation. \nThis talk will introduce the audience to new research on ancient Egyptian oneiromancy\, discussing in detail the workings of dream interpretation manuals and what light they shed on our knowledge of the ancient Egyptian mind. \nBiography:\nDr. Luigi Prada is Assistant Professor of Egyptology at Uppsala University\, Sweden. Formerly\, he was a member of the Egyptology departments of Oxford\, Heidelberg\, and Copenhagen University. Within Egyptology\, he specializes in textual\, religious\, and social studies\, with particular focus on the Late and Graeco-Roman Periods. He is passionate about fieldwork\, and is the Assistant Director of the Oxford/Uppsala epigraphic team working with Egyptian colleagues in Elkab in southern Egypt; he has also participated in fieldwork in Sudan. He is currently President of the Society of Friends and Collaborators of the Museo Egizio in Turin (ACME).

SUMMARY:Artifacts and Archaeological Processes: The Lives and Afterlives of Objects in Pompeii
DESCRIPTION:Lecture by Catherine Baker\, Bryn Mawr College\nFrom the chipped corners of an ancient die to the mortar on a reused inscription\, artifacts tell stories. Archaeologists reconstruct these object biographies\, tracing the lives of ancient artifacts from their creation to their final deposition. In this talk\, I explore the stories of some of the artifacts excavated by the Pompeii Archaeological Research Project: Porta Stabia (University of Cincinnati)\, including dice and gaming pieces\, statuettes\, tools of potters\, and even nails. These object biographies shed light not only on the way people first used these objects\, but on their afterlives – the ways in which objects were discarded\, recycled\, and reused. These lives and afterlives of objects\, in turn\, shape the archaeology of a site\, allowing us to trace the complex patterns of use\, reuse\, and discard which characterized the history of one neighborhood in the Roman city of Pompeii.\nHybrid Event.
