I want to talk about the particular constellation of attitudes, beliefs, routines, stunning scholarly successes and mindless destructions that have been committed over the last two hundred years in the name of "rediscovering" the Middle Eastern past. We are still learning about the social, political, religious, and even economic effects of archaeology in the Middle East, but today I want highlight the following themes: 2.) The gradual transformation over the last 200 years of archaeology as an institutionalized activity, conducted by specially trained professionals working under the direct or indirect auspices of national governments.

    Extractions: As with most academic disciplines, there are a number of archaeological sub-disciplines typically characterised by a focus on a specific method or type of material, geographical or chronological focus, or other thematic concern. In addition, certain civilisations have attracted so much attention that their study has been specifically named. These sub-disciplines include Assyriology Mesopotamia Classical archaeology Greece and Rome ), and Egyptology Egypt The other main division of archaeology is into historical archaeology , which examines civilisations that left behind written records and prehistoric archaeology , which concerns itself with societies that did not have writing systems . However, the term is generally valid only in Europe and Asia where literate societies emerged without colonial influence. In areas where literacy arrived relatively late, it is more convenient to use other terms to divide up the archaeological record. In areas of semi-literacy the term protohistoric archaeology can be adopted to cover the study of societies with very limited written records. One example of a protohistoric site is

    The academic programme of (eastern) Mediterranean archaeology consists of one The deadline for application is March 1, 2004 for noneuropean Union  
    http://www.arts.kuleuven.be/ema/information/information.htm
    
    Extractions: Courses are taught in English. Non-native English speakers wishing to enroll for the programme are therefore required to have a good command of this language, i.e. a score of 550 (or 213 computer-based) on the "Test of English as a Foreign Language" (TOEFL) or a score of 7 on the "International English Language Testing System" (IELTS) . Candidates may also submit an attest certifying that the language utilized in the preparatory training was wholly English. The academic programme of Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology consists of one compulsory unit of environmental sciences and two options of archaeological courses focused on a specific time frame. Candidates are required to successfully complete a minimum of 60 points. Additional to the truncus communis of environmental courses, they must choose one of the archaeological options. Students wishing to alter a course within these modules may apply for this after deliberation with their supervisor. A dissertation thesis on a topic related to the selected option is compulsory. Most courses are weekly two-hour sessions, often organised as reading seminars. Discussion topics will be based on selected articles and chapters from specialised books(a list of prerequisite and recommended literature will be available). The programma also includes occasional guest lectures and visits to museums and exhibitions in Belgium and neighbouring coutries. Students enrolling for the programme are expected to write a dissertation (about 15.000 words or 50 typewritten pages) on a topic related to the selected option. Belgian students who wish to enrol for only part of the programme will receive a certificate indicating the courses that were successfully completed. Exams, mostly under the form of oral tests, will take place at the end of each semester (in January and June). Students who fail one or more examinations, may take them again during a third session (in August and September).

    Extractions: Map: Ancient Near East The territorial terms "Near East," "Middle East" and "Far East" take as their given a Western European standpoint. Generally speaking, Near East refers to lands surrounding the Eastern Mediterranean: Asia Minor (or Anatolia), Syria and Palestine, the Sinai Peninsula and Arabia, sometimes Egypt and parts of North Africa. Middle East designates the lands extending across the Tigris and Euphrates rivers: Persia and Mesopotamia. Far East includes Central Asia, China, Japan, etc. Thus, "Asia" and the "Orient" are very broad designations indeed. Accordingly, the history of the Near East encompasses a vast array of temporally overlapping cultures. The dominant politico-cultural groups of ancient Near Eastern history are the Sumerians, the Babylonians, the Assyrians, the Egyptians, the Hittites, the Persians, the Greeks, and the Romans. Mediaeval history traces the rise of the monotheistic politico-religious superpowers: the Christian Byzantine Empire; the Islamic Arab dynasties; and the Islamic Turkish Ottoman Empire. The Byzantine Empire, at various times during its millenium-long lifespan, from the 4th to the 15th centures A.C., controlled or influenced much of the Near East as well as Greece, Serbia and the Balkans, and Eastern Europe. Control over much of this territory was taken, first, by the Arab dynasties, and ultimately, in the 15th century, by the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Empire flourished into modern times, ending only after World War I.

    Extractions: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2003 Reviewed By Magnus T. Bernhardsson During the spring of 2003, Iraq’s antiquities, museums, and libraries became part of the war’s battleground and in many cases became “collateral damage.” This catastrophic and unprecedented destruction of Iraqi cultural heritage, though not nearly as devastating as originally feared, was symbolic and indicative of the challenges facing Iraq’s political future. Yet this was not the first time that Iraqi antiquities became war trophy though certainly the degree and context was unprecedented. Archaeological artifacts have borne the brunt of other battles as well. In this theoretically dense and interesting book, Frederick N. Bohrer describes how in the 19 th century, Iraq, or Mesopotamia as it was then known, was a “sort of a archaeological battleground” (p. 313) amongst the various European powers who actively competed to acquire more artifacts. Though the actual “battle” on ground in the Middle East gets some attention, Bohrer’s principal interest is what happens when the objects were transported to Europe. By and large, therefore, this is not your typical book in Middle Eastern studies. This is essentially a complex study of European reception, interpretation, and circulation. Bohrer demonstrates that the European reception of Mesopotamian art was varied and multifaceted both from country to country but also within a given country. Reception and interpretation, Bohrer suggests, is a “culturally grounded experience,” and as his concluding sentence reminds us “ far from a monolithic locale, the unitary “West” may be as fictive, as much a dream, as the exotic “East” of its own presumptions.” (p. 313).

Reviews: "Into the ever-tangled and speculative debate on Indo-European origins comes this excellent book: lucid, critical, and refreshingly sober."D. F. Easton, The Classical Review "The fact that [a] pattern of localized Near Eastern takeovers coincides with the inception of chariot warfare, coupled with his carefully documented hypothesis that Proto-Indo-European-speaking (PIE) peoples in Armenia were responsible for the development and spread of chariot warfare, serves as the backdrop to Drews's innovative scenario for the arrival of the Greeks.... Such complete Near Eastern analogies involving archaeology, mythology, and linguistics, for example, have been rarely applied to support theories of PIE dispersal.... His research serves the critical function of provoking new views of a long-standing problem."Susan N. Skomal, American Journal of Archaeology Endorsement: "An archaeological and linguistic whodunnit of the most fascinating sort, courageously tackling a much-argued problem from several disciplines at once....

The eastern portion of North America amplifies the problem, because European settlers were debating various aspects of Indian origins the moment they stepped off their boats. Consequently, there is a lot of literature on the subject and numerous avenues in which we could explore the area. For this semester I have decided to focus on a series of edited volumes that contain articles written by some of the principal archaeologists currently working in Eastern North America. The contributions in these books were meant to be read in their entirety and, often, in the sequence in which they are arranged. Consequently, instead of dividing up the various articles and assigning different ones to individual students, I want you to read the books according to the editors' intent, from cover to cover.

    Extractions: Courses Teaching and research activities of the department concentrate on the archaeology, history and art of Anatolia, the Mediterranean, and the ancient Near East. Students will have opportunities to take part in excavations and surveys conducted by department members at the multi-period sites of Hacimusalar-Elmali (Antalya) and Kinet Hoyuk-Dortyol (Hatay). The aim of the undergraduate program in the Department of Archaeology and History of Art is to provide a thorough and comprehensive understanding of archaeology, ancient history and art. The curriculum includes practical as well as academic work. There will be field trips to museums and sites in Turkey, and students will have the opportunity to participate in departmental survey/excavation projects; arrangements might also be made for students to take part in excavations and expeditions sponsored by other institutions. The first two years of the program embrace a wide range of essential introductory subjects designed to familiarize the student with the background material required for the more specialized subjects offered over the following two years. In the third and fourth years, besides the compulsory courses, the student has the opportunity to choose elective topics in his or her field of particular interest. One of the options in the fourth year is supervised study on a topic of the student's own choice, at the end of which the student will produce a short dissertation. This particular elective will be offered to students who would like to continue with graduate studies in the field of archaeology or related subjects. Every student is required to take at least one ancient language (Greek and Latin are offered). A basic knowledge of ancient Greek or Latin is invaluable for those students who decide to specialize in Greek or Roman art and archaeology, or ancient history.

    Extractions: ISBN 0-521-65872-1 pb This will surely be regarded by Palaeolithic specialists as one of the major books published in recent years. Clive Gamble, Professor of Archaeology at Southampton, tries to pull aside the intellectual curtain that separates the Palaeolithic from later periods, for which prehistorians have no hesitation in setting society as their goal of study. In doing so he makes a brave attempt to study the Palaeolithic's denizens in terms of their social relations with each other, rather than their ecological relationships with hazelnuts. His starting point is that that a form of social life `extends throughout the hominid record from 5 million years ago to the present day'. There are real, complex issues here to resolve. For example, when were social relations `released from proximity' - ie, from being confined only to one's immediate family and group - and stretched in time and space, aided by the production of material culture? Gamble sees Palaeolithic society as being created `bottom up' by individuals interacting with one another, rather than `top down' through a set of precepts about how to behave inherited from a previous generation. Individuals, he says, interacted through `networks' at different levels of intimacy - family, close group members, more distant group members and so on. And these interactions happened at various scales. One scale was the
