ARCHAEOLOGY IN JORDAN, SUMMER 2019
Come excavate with Dr. Melissa Bailey Kutner at Dhiban, one of the most important archaeological sites in Jordan. Dhiban was occupied from the Iron Age through the late Roman and early Islamic periods. Students will learn archaeological excavation techniques, as well as to record data and process artifacts, and will take field trips around Jordan to sites such as Petra and Jerash. The field school lasts from July 3 to August 6, and students will earn 8 semester credits equivalent to ARCH 397.
More information, including the syllabus and cost, can be found here:
https://ifrglobal.org/program/jordan-dhiban/ Many scholarships are available, both through UMBC and other organizations, and financial aid can be used as well. Please contact Dr. Kutner at
mabailey@umbc.edu for more information. An informational meeting will be held at the beginning of spring semester, but some scholarships have early deadlines, so feel free to contact Dr. Kutner sooner if interested.

ANCS 350 - Alexander The Great
Enroll in the new course taught by Dr. Coughlan!
Alexander the Great died young but left the world forever changed. This course examines both the historical figure of Alexander and the legacy and symbolic impact of the man in Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, and Modern literature, art, and thought. In pursuit of Alexander and what has meant and still means today as a figure of history, literature, and culture, this course will take students from the Macedonian Court of Pella, the fields of Afghanistan, and the cities of Alexandria and Rome to modern Greece and the soundstages of Hollywood. The course will address questions and issues related to finding the "real" Alexander in the ancient sources, Greek identity, cultural exchange between East and West, the impact of "Great Man" history, and the influence of Alexander on traditions of Western and non-Western art and literature, among others. By the end of this course, students will come to know both the man and the legend and how they are often indistinguishable.

Welcome to the Ancient Studies Council
Salvete, omnes!
Welcome to the fall semester; I hope everyone's school year is off to a magnificent start! The Ancient Studies Council has many great things planned for this semester, and we're excited to share all of that with you. My name is Irene Nolan, and I am the president of the ANCS Council this year. Our vice president is Maegan Crew, our secretary is Matthew Haworth, and our treasurer is Anthony DeFeo.
Involvement Fest was yesterday and we had an awesome turnout. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hello! We have a number of upcoming events to look forward to:
- The Ancient Studies Pizza Party is Wednesday, Sept. 19th, from 12:00 - 1:00 pm in PAHB 441. This is a great opportunity to meet the Ancient Studies faculty, staff, and students, and also to have free pizza.
- The ANCS Council Bake Sale is also Wednesday, Sept. 19th, from 12:00 - 2:00 pm in the Commons Breezeway. Feel free to stop by on your way out of the pizza party for desserts and to support the ANCS Council!
- The first ANCS Council meeting will be on Wednesday, Sept. 26th, at 5:30 pm in PAHB 441. At this meeting, we'll discuss future events, hear suggestions, and answer any questions you may have about the Council. Immediately following, we will be hosting our first Symposium.
- Symposium was a wonderful suggestion by a student at Involvement Fest for the ANCS Council to have a discussion about mythology, ancient history, and other related topics in a relaxed atmosphere over snacks. Our first discussion topic is yet to be decided but will be announced soon.
- Scribe School with Dr. Lane will be on Wednesday, Oct. 3rd at 4:00 pm in PAHB 229. Dr. Lane will be teaching us an ancient script, and we will be inscribing it onto clay tablets. Materials will be provided.
Please feel free to invite your friends to all of these events! We will have more events scheduled soon. All of our events and updates will be posted here at the Ancient Studies Council group page. We also have a Facebook page (we have the best memes) which can be found by searching for UMBC Ancient Studies Council.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact any of the ANCS Council officers at the emails listed below:
We look forward to seeing you all and to an amazing semester!
Valete,
Irene Nolan
Ancient Studies Council, President
