Cuneiform tie today, in honor of the first meeting of the Amarna Letters seminar.

Tried to pick a fairly bright and lively tie for the first day of the new semester! Welcome back everyone!

Giving a lecture locally tonight, as a favor to a friend. Time for my favorite Egyptian tie. Then home to watch the end of the Oregon – Indiana football game. Don’t nobody tell me who wins before I have a chance to watch it!

Thanks for being patient!

Lecturing tonight on the Amarna Letters at ISAC in Chicago. Decided to wear the “cats and ankhs” tie (from the British Museum) for the occasion.

lol

Yes; 9:15 am.

Contemplating the New Year…

(Apparently it will also be streamed live; if you register and wish to watch online, you'll be sent a zoom link via email on the day of the lecture, according to info in the announcement...)

Happy New Year to everyone! Start your year off right, with a free lecture...I'll be giving a talk on the Amarna Letters at ISAC in Chicago next week (at 7 pm on 7 January):
