This view is derived from the textual evidence of the Linear B tablets. However\, a comparison of various archaeological metal production assemblages reveals that smiths interacted with political authorities in far more complex ways than has been assumed. As such\, this talk presents a more nuanced understanding of the diverse relationships that existed between craft production and the palaces\, which in turn has broader implications for our view of Mycenaean states as definable entities which are universally comparable in their function and interests. \nZoom link: https://utoronto.zoom.us/j/82140037593 \n.Co-sponsored by the University of Toronto Department of Classics. \n     URL:https://www.mediterraneanstudies.ca/lecture/the-smith-and-the-state/ LOCATION:Online with Zoom CATEGORIES:Toronto Chapter END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20230115T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20230115T150000 DTSTAMP:20240504T065138 CREATED:20220715T213321Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220715T213501Z UID:886-1673791200-1673794800@www.mediterraneanstudies.ca SUMMARY:When Jordanian Ancient Stones Talk DESCRIPTION:Maysoon Al Nahar\, University of Jordan \nCo-sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America. \nOnline with Zoom.

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.
