FRIENDS OF ÂÌñÒùÆÞ WEBINARS

Meet the Directors—Fundraiser to Support ÂÌñÒùÆÞ’s Affiliated Overseas Research Centers

Join us for a roundtable discussion with the directors of the 3 Overseas Research Centers affiliated with ÂÌñÒùÆÞ—located in Jerusalem (AIAR: W. F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research), Nicosia, Cyprus (CAARI: Cyprus American Archaeological Research Institute), and Amman, Jordan (ACOR: American Center of Research). All proceeds will support the three research centers. The webinar will begin with an introduction about the mission of each center and each center’s current and future projects. A discussion will follow, moderated by former ÂÌñÒùÆÞ President, Prof. Susan Ackerman of Dartmouth College. The webinar will conclude with a Q&A portion with the audience.

Dr. Matthew J. Adams (AIAR) has been the Director of the W.F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research in Jerusalem since 2014. He is a specialist in Egyptology and Near Eastern Archaeology and broad interests across space and time in the ancient world. He is currently Director of the Jezreel Valley Regional Project and Co-director of the Megiddo Expedition and the excavations of the base of the Roman Legio VI Ferrata at Legio, Israel. His work in Palestine includes co-directing the excavations at Solomon’s Pools. He is also a Field Director at the site of Mendes in Egypt, which formed the subject of his Ph.D. dissertation at The Pennsylvania State University.

Dr. Pearce Paul Creasman (ACOR) has been director of ACOR since February 2020. From 2009-2020, he was a professor and curator at the University of Arizona, focusing on the heritage, archaeology, and environment of the Middle East and North Africa, where he remains affiliated faculty. Since 2012, he served as director of the University of Arizona’s Egyptian Expedition. Having worked in several countries in the region, his most recent archaeological project is directing the excavations at the pyramids and royal necropolis of Nuri, Sudan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dr. Creasman’ s formal training includes a Ph.D. in nautical archaeology from Texas A&M University. With more than 100 publications, he has been recognized for his work by several institutions including: the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy, as a fellow of The Explorer’s Club and the Royal Geographic Society, and was honored as one of the National Geographic Society’s “Geniuses” for 2021.

Dr. Lindy Crewe (CAARI) was awarded her Ph.D. in Archaeology from the University of Edinburgh in 2004. She is the author of two monographs, two edited volumes and over 30 articles on Cypriot archaeology. Her research has focussed on the prehistory of the eastern Mediterranean, primarily Cyprus and interconnections with the surrounding region. She is an expert on Bronze Age Cypriot pottery and is Director of excavations at the Bronze Age settlement of Kissonerga Skalia near Paphos. She previously worked as Curator of Cypriot Antiquities in the Department of Greece in Rome at the British Museum, as a Lecturer in Archaeology at the University of Manchester and has been in her current role of Director of the Cyprus American Archaeological Research Institute (CAARI) in Nicosia since 2017.
