SUMMARY:Beyond the Swidden: Mesoamerican Agricultural Practices Past\, Present\, and Future
DESCRIPTION:The final presentation in the Archaeological Institute of America Dayton Society’s 2025-2026 Lecture Series presented by Dr. Shanti Morell-Hart\, Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology/Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World at Brown University in Providence\, Rhode Island. \nHow do we understand human negotiations of variable ecologies from the perspective of deep time\, and identify historical shifts in these dynamics? How does such research help us to understand societal “collapse” as it has been framed by so many scholars (often outside of historical ecology and archaeology)? What cautionary tales or routes to innovation can we draw from these understandings? \nIn this talk Dr. Morell-Hart will address recent studies in Mesoamerica on ancient agriculture\, as well as resilient features of human practice in negotiating tropical landscapes. She will focus on several areas where she has carried out archaeological research in Guatemala\, Mexico\, and Honduras\, with an emphasis on the analysis of plant residues and consider: How can we negotiate productivity and sustainability (through many cultural and natural definitions)? What alternate farming solutions can we offer\, based in archaeological research and understandings of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK)? \nShe will also address contemporary issues in Mesoamerica\, from the home garden\, to the milpa\, to the forest. What new agricultural strategies in tropical Mesoamerica have been inspired– or discouraged– by ancient practices? What additional strategies might we consider in an era of radical environmental change? \nThis lecture is scheduled to take place in person in the Science Center Auditorium (SC 114) at The University of Dayton. \nFor a campus map with building and parking information visit https://udayton.edu/map/ \nThanks to the Archaeological Institute of America’s Lecture Program and its Dayton Society members this lecture is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Looting Antiquity: Greece's Lost Marbles
DESCRIPTION:The first presentation in the Archaeological Institute of America Dayton Society’s 2025-2026 Lecture Series presented by Dr. Zoë Kontes\, Professor of Classics at Kenyon College. \nThe Parthenon Marbles may be the most famous sculptures removed from an ancient Greek building\, but they are far from the only ones. Marble sculptures from the Temple of Aphaia on the island of Aegina and the mountaintop Temple of Apollo at Bassae were spirited away and sold at auction in the 19th century; they have remained abroad ever since. This talk will discuss the adventures the sculptures have had in their modern history\, consider the important question of where they belong\, and review the current state of looting in Greece. \nThis lecture is scheduled to take place in person in the Science Center Auditorium (SC 114) at The University of Dayton. \nFor a campus map with building and parking information visit https://udayton.edu/map/ \nThanks to the Archaeological Institute of America’s Lecture Program and its Dayton Society members this lecture is free and open to the public.
