The Division of Social Sciences Fall 2024 Luncheon Seminar Series (Brown Bags) Presents:September 12th- 12-1pm in 111 Alumni HallHanna Erftenbeck (SOAN)Visiting Assistant Professor of AnthropologyTitle: Feeding Ancient Cities – What we can learn about early urbanism by studying ancient foodways in JordanDescription: More than 5000 years ago, people in West Asia started to experiment with urban lifeways. For the first time in the region, humans lived in larger, more densely populated settlements that were characterized by a distinct built environment. Neighborhoods, streets, fortification walls, temples, and residences of different sizes created new social, political, and economic dynamics that people navigated every day. Archaeologists use the material remains of these early cities to investigate how people created and maintained urban lifeways. In my talk I will explore early urbanism in what today is Jordan and the southern Levant more broadly through the lens of daily food practices. Food is central to daily life, connecting to both the larger economy of communities, as well as traditions and identity, and people’s food practices can tell us a lot about their relationship with each other and the landscape. By investigating early urban foodways we can gain nuanced insights into how people’s daily practices and actions built urbanism from the ground up.Lunch provided, while supplies last.The next talk in this series is on September 26th with Jeremy Fortier, Visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science. - Thu 123:00 PMAdvances in Total Knee ArthroplastyAcademics | Palace Theater

A screening of selected works, followed by discussion with the artist in personJeffrey Stuker’s films explore the connection between nature and “second nature” — the representation of socially constructed values as if they were the outcome of an inevitable biological process. A central focus of Stuker’s work is mimicry — both in nature, where it provides a strategy for the survival of certain species, and in digital imaging, which can manifest hyper-lifelike representations of reality. Stuker creates carefully rendered computer-generated images, planting coded historical, scientific, and industrial references within. These moving images exist as part simulation and part documentation; their factualness remains elusive or, rather, allegorical.Co-sponsored by the Art Department - Fri 13All dayPICS Theater FestivalAcademics
