Summer Field Schools Informal Workshop
The Archaeology Program will be holding an informal workshop on summer field
schools for students interested in archaeology. Professors who will be leading
Cornell field schools will be there to talk about their projects, and we will
have some information about other projects, as well as general advice on how
to find and choose a field school.
Everyone is encouraged to continue the discussion
at the Archaeology dinner to follow, ca. 5:30 in Risley dining.
If you are an
archaeology student who has already attended a field school, please come share
your insights. |

Performing Power: Ritual and Politics in Late Classic Southeastern Mesoamerica
Focusing on the archaeology of Southeastern Mesoamerica, this talk will
explore the political and economic upheavals occurring throughout
northwestern Honduras at the end of the Late Classic period. Specifically,
the efforts of a fledgling group of leaders at the mid-level
craft-producing community of Las Canoas will be examined as evidence of
individualistic attempts to take advantage of shifts in politico-economic
networks of alliance in the region. In particular, I will discuss the
importance of specialized ritual performances in legitimizing the fragile
power of these emerging leaders. |
