[POULEY John * OPRD]

Hello all--
Please join us on Thur April 3,  4 pm, Smith 236, to hear,

Dr. Jay Stratton Noller  (Dept. of Crop and Soil Science, Oregon State University),
present

“The dynamic relationship between people and environment in Cyprus over the past 12,000 years: Results from the Troodos Archaeological and Environmental Survey Project”

Over six field seasons, project researchers investigated a wide variety of physical and cultural landscapes on the northern edge of the Troodos Mountains of the eastern Mediterranean island of Cyprus.  Overlaying the physical topography are cultural landscapes showing food and fibre production, natural resource extraction, water conveyance and industry, ritual and burial, and the buildings associated with villages, farms and copper mines.  Noller’s presentation reviews the complex and dynamic relationship between people and their landscape, as it was played out in resource extraction, communication, settlement, social organization, and the manipulation of soils, plants and water.

Please share the attached flyer with friends and colleagues.  We look forward to seeing you there.
