SUMMARY:"Third Thursday Food for Thought"
DESCRIPTION:“From Hohokam to Salado: The Kayenta Diaspora in the Southwest” dinner presentation with Dr. Jeffery J. Clark on Decemeber 17\, 2015\, 6-8:30 PM at U-Like Oriental Buffet Asian Cuisine\, 5101 N. Oracle Rd. (at River Rd.) in Tucson. Dr. Clark will discuss and illustrate how an estimated 5\,000 to 7\,500 Kayenta people from northeastern Arizona immigrated to and through the Colorado Plateau and Mogollon region during the late 13th century\, some of them ultimately reaching southeastern Arizona where they encountered highly sedentary irrigation communities with variable ties to the Hohokam World. Although the Kayenta were a dispersed minority\, they resisted assimilation and retained some aspects of their homeland identity\, causing some tense initial relations with the populations already living in lands where the immigrants had resettled. After a generation or two\, however\, tensions abated as indicated by widespread exchange of Salado polychrome pottery and obsidian from southwestern New Mexico. \nMake your reservations by calling Old Pueblo Archaeology Center at 520-798-1201. Reservations are required by 3 PM on the day before the dinner because the Fire Code limits meeting room capacity and because the restaurant needs advance notice to schedule their staff. \n20151217(V2)_ThirdThursday_JefferyClark_FromHohokamToSalado-TheKayentaDiaspora

SUMMARY:“Southwestern Rock Calendars and Ancient Time Pieces”
DESCRIPTION:This free presentation is sponsored by the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community in Salt River Community Building\, 1880 N. Longmore Road\, Scottsdale  (just north of the intersection of McDowell Road and Longmore) on Tuesday\, December 15\, 2015 from 6:00-8:00 pm. Native Americans in the Southwest developed sophisticated skills in astronomy and predicting the seasons\, centuries before Old World peoples first entered the region. In this presentation archaeologist Allen Dart discusses the petroglyphs at Picture Rocks\, the architecture of the “Great House” at Arizona’s Casa Grande Ruins\, and other archaeological evidence of ancient southwestern astronomy and calendrical reckoning; and interprets how these discoveries may have related to ancient Native American rituals. This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event. For more information contact Shane Anton at 480-362-6331 or shane.anton@srpmic-nsn.gov.

SUMMARY:"Chichén Itzá\, City of the Sacred Well"
DESCRIPTION:This is a free presentation by Dr. Thomas H. Wilson\, sponsored by Phoenix Chapter\, Arizona Archaeological Society\, at Pueblo Grande Museum\, 4619 E. Washington St.\, Phoenix on Friday\, December 11\, 2015 at 7:00 pm. The great site of Chichén Itzá in the northern Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico has fascinated the world ever since the visits of John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood in the 1840s. Archaeological work at Chichén Itzá revealed that many buildings there resemble those found elsewhere in Yucatán\, such as Uxmal\, Kabah\, and Labna\, whereas others are a stark departure from the more common Mayan architecture of the peninsula. Who were the peoples who created one of the great sites of the ancient world? What do the different architectural styles mean? What is the relationship of the Yucatecan sites and the great Maya cities to the south\, such as Tikal\, Yaxhilán and Palenque? Dr. Wilson\, Director of the Arizona Museum of Natural History in Mesa\, earned his Ph.D. studying Chichén Itzá in the 1970s. Join him as he revisits Chichén Itzá based on a recent trip to Yucatán. This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center event. For more information contact visit http://www.azarchsoc.org/Phoenix/.

SUMMARY:"Power and Pathos: Bronze Sculpture of the Hellenistic World"
DESCRIPTION:A bronze sculpture to be discussed by Kenneth Lapatin. You’d be surprised by what you don’t see in this cropped photo! \nThis free presentation\, sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America Central Arizona Society\, will be held on Thursday\, December 3\, 2015 at 6:00 PM. Presentation will be given by Kenneth Lapatin\, Associate Curator of Antiquities at the J. Paul Getty Museum and principal organizer of its current exhibition that has united 50 significant bronzes of the Hellenistic age. During the Hellenistic period from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B.C. until the establishment of the Roman Empire in 31 B.C.\, the medium of bronze drove artistic innovation. Sculptors moved beyond Classical norms\, supplementing traditional subjects and idealized forms with realistic renderings of physical and emotional states. Bronze – surpassing marble with its tensile strength\, reflective effects\, and ability to hold fine detail – was employed for dynamic compositions\, dazzling displays of the nude body\, and graphic expressions of age and character. Cast from alloys of copper\, tin\, lead\, and other elements\, bronze statues were produced in the thousands: honorific portraits of rulers and citizens populated city squares\, and images of gods\, heroes\, and mortals crowded sanctuaries. Few\, however\, survive. New discoveries appeared with works known for centuries\, and several closely related statues were presented side by side for the first time in this Getty Museum exhibition. This presentation will be held at the Benedictine University\, Main Campus Building Community Room\, 225 E. Main Street\, Mesa\, AZ. For more information contact Almira Poudrier at apoudrie@asu.edu.

SUMMARY:"The Earliest Apache in Arizona: Evidence and Arguments"
DESCRIPTION:This free presentation by archaeologist Deni Seymour is sponsored by the Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society\, which will be held on Monday\, November 16\, 2015 at the Banner University Medical Center in the Duval Auditorium (1501 N. Campbell Ave.\, Tucson) at 7:30-9:00 PM. Seymour will present evidence from recent research that ancestral Apaches were in the southern Southwest at least as early as the A.D. 1300s. Some of this evidence comes from chronometric dates obtained from a feature type that comparative ethnographic information (including rarely used land claims documents) indicates were used for storage. These features\, called platform caches\, provide rare and ideal material for accurate dating because they are often covered with grass or leaves. Other evidence (pottery\, roasting pits\, etc.) will also be presented that support a continuous sequence of use from at least as early as the A.D. 1300s through the late 1700s. For more information on this presentation visit www.az-arch-and-hist.org or contact John D. Hall at 520-205-2553 or jhall@sricrm.com.

SUMMARY:Solar-Petroglyph Interaction at Casa Malpais
DESCRIPTION:“Third Thursday Food for Thought” Dinner and Presentation With Archaeology Technician Thomas P. Robinson. Through time\, the world’s cultures have used different media to express their belief systems that give structure and meaning to everyday life. Rock art is a common form that is highly visible in the southwestern U.S. Studies have attempted to segregate images by culture styles\, and associations or interpretations by current Native American participants.\nHowever\, anthropological and ethnological studies show that cultural world views change through time according to shifts in natural forces (resources) and external factors of contact (exchange\, warfare) and can modify social and ritual structures to adjust to that change. Retouch or repecking of rock art and additions by practitioners or later cultures with similar world views and experiences has added layers of complexity.\nIn this presentation\, Thomas Robinson will present a new way of looking at solar-calendric function of some petroglyphs that may offer insights into the larger operating belief systems in which specific imagery details are fluid and easily used by new or evolving society groups and clans in accepting roles in the overall social structure. At Casa Malpais\, a great kiva and pueblo site in east -central Arizona\, distinctly characteristic petroglyphs provide an opportunity to test hypotheses of image type\, groupings\, and solar shadow-and-light movement across the images\, and suggest society/kiva requisites. \nThere is no entry fee. Donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s educational efforts. Guests may select & purchase dinner from the restaurant’s menu.\nRESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED by 3 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program because the Fire Code limits meeting room capacity and because the restaurant needs advance notice to schedule sufficient staff for our event. Contact Old Pueblo at 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org for your restaurant reservation or more information. \n

SUMMARY:The Billingsley Hopi Dancers
DESCRIPTION:Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought” dinner featuring the presentation “The Billingsley Hopi Dancers” by Kenneth Zoll at ****[restaurant to be announced]\, Tucson; cosponsored by Arizona Humanities \n6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s menu) \n \nPhoto of M. W. Billingsley and his group of Hopi Snake Dancers at the 1939 New York World’s Fair \nIn 1921 the Hopi were told that “church people” petitioned Congress to stop their “pagan” dancing. A platform was erected on the U.S. Capitol steps where both Houses of Congress assembled with their families to see the Hopi dancers. Following the performance\, Congress passed a Resolution giving the Hopi permission to carry on their dancing “for all time.” The dancers continued to perform culminating in performances at Carnegie Hall in 1955. The Verde Valley Archaeology Center and Hopi Tribe jointly received a grant to preserve a rare 1957 film of the dancers. This presentation provides background and shows the film. \nKenneth Zoll is the Executive Director of the Verde Valley Archaeology Center in Camp Verde. He is also a site steward with the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office\, and a volunteer docent at cultural heritage sites in the Coconino National Forest. He has conducted extensive fieldwork in cultural astronomy of the Southwest and is a certified instructor in cultural astronomy with the Arizona Archaeological Society. Zoll is the author of several popular books on cultural astronomy and rock art in Central Arizona\, as well as several cultural astronomy articles in professional publications. \nThis program was made possible by Arizona Humanities. \nGuests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Because seating is limited in order for the program to be in compliance with the Fire Code\, those wishing to attend must call 520-798-1201 and must have their reservations confirmed before 5 p.m. Wednesday April 15.

SUMMARY:Ancient Native American Pottery Replication Workshop: Corrugated Ware of the Mogollon Culture
DESCRIPTION:Saturday and Sunday April 11 & 12\, & Sunday April 19\, 2015 \nOld Pueblo Archaeology Center\, 2201 W. 44th Street\, just west of La Cholla Blvd.\, ½-mile north of John F. Kennedy Park\, Tucson. \n9 a.m. to noon & 1-4 p.m. on first two days; 9 a.m. to noon on second Sunday. Fee $70 ($56 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Pueblo Grande Museum Auxiliary members); each participant must provide a small water bowl\, hand towel\, & 2 plastic grocery bags; clay & all other class materials are provided. \nIn this workshop students will explore and authentically recreate corrugated pottery as it was made by the prehistoric Mogollon culture. Mogollon corrugated pottery is sometimes overlooked because it is not flashy like polished and painted pottery types\, but a close examination reveals an elegance of form and sophisticated techniques used in construction. Workshop participants will learn the history of these pottery types and experience the entire process of reproducing them from processing raw materials\, to hand coiling vessels\, culminating in an authentic outdoor pottery firing. This workshop will take place over the course of one weekend during which the pots are created completely then left to dry\, followed later by a Sunday morning in which we will fire all the pottery produced. Each participant will leave with a beautiful\, authentic\, finished reproduction of a prehistoric corrugated pot. Any participants who are unable to attend the later firing can arrange to have their pots fired and shipped to them (student pays for shipping). \nInstructor Andy Ward is a diligent student of southwestern prehistory and archaeology who has worked with archaeologists to locate resources in field surveys and in excavations. He began working to reproduce prehistoric pottery while still in high school and has successfully recreated many of the prehistoric pottery types of southern Arizona. \nReservations required: 520-798-1201 or info@oldpueblo.org
