Blood and Power: Arena Spectacle and the Roman Empire at ASU Tempe Campus, Business Administration C Wing, Room 116

Speaker: Alison FutrellThe popular image of Rome puts the arena at center stage. From Ben-Hur to Gladiator, our mental images of Rome center on the arena and the violent spectacles it housed; like the luxurious bath-houses, the banquets and the orgies, the blood games are central to the popular perception of Rome as devoted to sophisticated luxury, to personal pleasures, and as doomed by its decadence.

How Alexander the Great Conquered the World with Glue and Linen: Reconstructing Ancient Greek Armor at ASU Tempe Campus

March 11, 2010 from 6pm to 7:30pm
Speaker: Gregory AldreteFor nearly 1,000 years, one of the most common forms of protection used by ancient Mediterranean warriors, including the armies of the Greeks and Alexander the Great, was the linothorax, a type of body armor apparently made out of linen.

Hello Cindy and welcome to the site! By the way, the new officers definitely share your frustration with the fact that Boston sends us some of the less interesting topics and speakers of those making the rounds - we even requested a few (who also requested to speak here) and they still sent us other people, so we're looking into why that happens. That said, we're quite happy with our overall line-up for the year and hope you share our excitement. Martha Joukowsky has always been one of the most engrossing speakers - we hope to lure more like her in the years to come, and like you, I am deeply interested in the Minoans and Mycenaeans. If you like Libya, you might be interested to hear what Dr. Thomas Morton has to say about his trip to Algeria this summer. Look forward to meeting you this fall!
