Anthropology Speaker Series
CLAS co-sponsored two lectures organized by the Department of Anthropology as part of their Fall Speaker Series featuring visiting speakers Charles E. Orser and Axel Nielsen. Orser (New York State Museum) discussed quilombos in Brazil and peasant Irish settlements in Ireland in his lecture, “Strategies Toward an Archaeology of Self-Liberation.” Nielsen (Instituto Nacional de Antropología y Pensamiento Latinoamericano, Argentina), spoke about his research on the interaction at llama caravan hubs in relation to the archaeological study of ancient trade networks in his talk titled, “Llama Caravan Hubs in the South Central Andes: Ethnography and Archaeology.”
