When does a traveler become a migrant? Why is migration important? What are its consequences? 2018-06-14T20:37:41Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/exchanging-views-cultural-interrelation-in-the-levantine-artistic-production-in-the-late-bronze-age 2016-02-03T18:40:34Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/fifth-annual-m-i-rostovtzeff-lecture-series-displacements-migration-mobility-and-material-culture-in-the-west-mediterranean-1 Discussions of migration have tended to privilege the bigger picture and long-distance connections, drawing lines between the dots, now mostly relabeled as ‘nodes’. There has been very little consideration, however, of what or rather who made up those dots and, most of all, how connections were forged and maintained at those critical places. In the second lecture of the series, I focus on precisely these locales and examine why people were attracted by these particular places and how migrants interacted with local inhabitants to build new lives. 2016-02-03T20:38:11Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/fifth-annual-m-i-rostovtzeff-lecture-series-displacements-migration-mobility-and-material-culture-in-the-west-mediterranean-2 In the third lecture of the series, I leave urban contexts to one side and focus primarily, although not exclusively, on the west Mediterranean countryside. 2016-02-03T20:37:20Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-babylonians-and-the-rational-analogical-reasoning-in-contexts-of-rationality 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/new-rituals-new-religion 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/prehistoric-metallurgy-of-xinjiang 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/fifth-annual-m-i-rostovtzeff-lecture-series-displacements-migration-mobility-and-material-culture-in-the-west-mediterranean-3 In the fourth and final lecture of the series, I draw attention to the nature of connections forged by migration and the communities that created and maintained these links. 2016-02-03T20:36:21Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-majesty-of-empire-assyrian-monuments-and-texts-from-kurdistan 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-elusive-persian-phoenix-on-the-identification-of-the-simurgh-and-khvarenah-in-the-art-of-pre-islamic-iran 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/excavations-at-arslantepe-malatay-and-ayanis 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/borders-in-the-archaeology-of-pre-classical-anatolia-and-the-south-caucasus-ba-ia 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-sargonic-and-ur-iii-empires-continuities-differences-innovations 2016-02-03T18:39:27Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/ancient-egyptian-conviviality-a-gap-in-modern-knowledge 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-huayuanzhuang-oracle-bones-in-context 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/chalcolithic-copper 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/ancient-near-eastern-literature-topics-issues-approaches 2016-02-03T18:40:34Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/father-and-son-at-the-beginning-of-chinese-history-ca-1300bc 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/exploring-ritual-in-the-ancient-near-east-and-mediterranean-performance-textu-and-material-culture 2016-02-03T18:40:34Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/radiocarbon-and-historical-chronology-of-old-world-history-how-reliable-are-our-dating-methods 2016-02-03T18:39:26Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/life-of-the-spirit 2016-02-03T18:37:19Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/multilingualism-and-social-belonging-in-the-late-antique-and-early-islamic-near-east 2016-02-03T18:37:19Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/copy_of_property-and-power-in-late-antiquity 2016-02-03T18:37:19Z Event https://isaw.nyu.edu/events/archive/2013/the-gold-throne-of-tutankhamun 2016-02-03T18:37:19Z Event
