    Extractions: Now that we have a 22-megapixel camera to add to our digital arsenel, we are launching additional projects in high quality photography of Maya ethnobotany. These are long-range programs, but here are some of the initial photographs on waterlily research (much of my PhD dissertation was on this subject), on achiote (a red color to add to cacao), naturally cacao itself; ceiba trees (especially the spines), copal pom, and incense in general (since copal is only one of more than five kinds of Maya incense). We are also photographing all other fruits and vegetables which appear in Maya art, such as guicoy , which is common as an effigy vessel in Tepeu 1ceramics of Peten. Maya-archaeology.org covers Mayan, Olmec, Teotihuacan art, architecture, deities, hieroglyphic writing and the latest digital photography, 35mm film and flatbed scanner technology for recording the artifacts and pyramid-temple and palace architectural remains of these fascinating ancient civilizations. Our strength is digital photography, especially for professional photography in museums or on archaeological expeditions (lighting, inch large format cameras for studio photography as well as are portable for location photography, etc).

48. Dangerous Archaeology
    An exhibit about Francis Willey Kelsey s work in Armenia in 1919 to 1920, particularly on ancient habitation in Cilicia.

    Extractions: and Armenia (1919-1920) Curators and other staff members of the Kelsey Museum of Ancient and Mediaeval Archaeology are brought up short, with surprising frequency, by the discovery of yet another unexplored aspect of the Museum's seemingly endless holdings. It is no exaggeration to say that new items are brought to light almost daily. The documentary evidence displayed in the exhibition Dangerous Archaeology: Francis Willey Kelsey and Armenia (1919-1920) provides a stunning case in point. The enormity of this particular corpus of information is impossible to document fully in the small format of this exhibition. Hundreds of photographs, letters, telegrams, diaries, and other archival pieces furnish tangible testimonies to the unfolding drama of one American archaeologist's expedition to the Near East in the short period of fragile peace immediately following the Great War. There are many significant aspects of this drama its modern historical setting bounded by violent confrontations between ethnically, religiously and politically defined groups, its fluctuating national and international borders. Most important for our present purpose, however, are the historical ramifications. Although most of these documents and objects are artifacts of recent manufacture, they are the basic materials from which history is written. They are presented here as such.

58. The Archaeology Of Ancient Ireland
    An illustrated introduction to Irish archaeology by Michael Sundermeier, of Creighton University, Oregon, US.  
    http://mockingbird.creighton.edu/english/micsun/IrishResources/archaeol.htm
    
    Extractions: Prehistoric Ireland. Little remains of Irish dwellings that predates the sixth century a.d. The abundance of wood and the difficulty of working stone with primitive tools undoubtedly accounts in part for this. In addition, the primitive farming practice of depleting the fields and then moving on to new ones made the laborious erection of a permanent stone dwelling unfeasible. Moreover, livestock constituted a major part of the wealth of the time, and the pasturing of flocks required considerable mobility, since the animals lived as foragers and were not, for the most part, fed grain from the laboriously worked fields. Furthermore, there were at that time no towns or even villages where artifacts might accumulate over a considerable period of time. At the most there were quasi-permanent encampments such as the royal sites of Cruachan and Emain Macha. Burial sites, however, are another matter. Court graves and passage graves can be found dating from as early 3,500 years b.c. (Harbison 5-ff). A court grave (or court tomb) was divided into two basic parts: a long chamber which contained smaller compartments in which remains were deposited, and a large open-space or court at the entrance to the chamber. The court was semi-circular and marked off by large standing stones. The chamber was roofed by a stone mound which tapered toward the back. Presumably the open court was used for rituals associated with burial.
