Our first Archaeological Institute of America (@archaeological.org) talk for the new academic year is Dr Matthew Sears (University of New Brunswick @discoverunb.bsky.social ) who will talk to us about a Spartan burial tomb in Athens. All welcome! #UAlberta

St Andrews was the meeting place for past & present members of #UAlberta Classics program! Current profs Chris Mackay & Kelly MacFarlane met up with former instructor Kathy Simonson (now faculty at MUN) and former undergrad John McDonald (now teaching professor at U Missouri)! Academic summers FTW!

Congratulations to all our graduates!

Students learned challenging but important current issues in archaeology such as looting and preservation of cultural heritage, all while being immersed in Jordan's culturally rich society. Drs Harvey & Hardman & their students look forward to sharing their discoveries soon! #UAlberta

At Humayma, students learned modern best practices for archaeological photography, pottery drawing, ceramic typologies, survey strategies, architectural documentation & assessment of archaeological preservation & cutting-edge archaeological techniques. #UAlberta

Over the past three weeks, under the leadership of our Prof Craig Harvey and Dr Amanda Hardman, 15 #UAlberta undergrads worked closely with archaeologists to record & process archaeological material & carry out a pedestrian survey at the site of Humayma in southern Jordan.

/ Salvē, Caesar! Nē cūrāverīs haruspicem illum fatuum ac illud "cavē īdūs Martiās". Nūgae quidem istaec! Bene erit, ergō tēcum in cūriam ambulābō. Convenit paucōs amīcōs ūnā vadere?

Morning, Caesar! Don't worry about that silly priest and his whole "beware the Ides of March" thing! Things will be fine! C'mon, I'll walk with you to the forum. Mind if some friends join us?
