SUMMARY:Recent Excavation at the Submerged Harbour at Tyre
DESCRIPTION:Ibrahim Noureddine\, Carleton University \nTyre\, located on the eastern Mediterranean coast in modern-day Lebanon\, has a rich history dating back to the 28th century BC. In recent years\, the Honor Frost Foundation has funded an excavation project focused on the old\, submerged breakwater near the harbour. Our team has conducted several excavations at this site to study the submerged structures in more detail and gain a better understanding of the city’s history. The results provide valuable insights into the history of Tyre\, including information about the city’s harbor and its role as a major trade hub. This lecture will discuss the results of work at the site and provide an update on the continuation of the project. Some of the most significant features from the excavations will be highlighted. The lecture will offer a comprehensive overview of the ongoing excavation project at the breakwater near Tyre and provide insight into the rich history and cultural significance of this important Mediterranean city. \nIn person at Woodside Hall\, Dominion-Chalmers Cultural Centre\, 355 Cooper Street\, Ottawa\,\nand\nonline with Zoom: https://carleton-ca.zoom.us/j/96158935842 \nIbrahim Noureddine (Ph.D.)\, is an Archaeologist with research interests in Egyptology\, Maritime Archaeology\, and eastern Mediterranean Bronze and Iron Age Archaeology.
