SUMMARY:Pizza Talk: "The Birth of Ehecatl and the Origins of Cacao: The Initial Series Group at Chichen Itza\, Mexico"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Karl Taube\, Professor and Department Chair\, Anthropology\, UC RiversideArchaeological fieldwork performed by the Proyecto Chichen Itza under the direction of Peter Schmidt during 1999 to 2002 uncovered a remarkable series of bas-relief friezes from the upper portions of palace and temple structures. The focus of this study will be buildings featuring avian and floral imagery\, including abundant representations of cacao. Many of the friezes contain scenes portraying an avian-headed figure playing music surrounded by floating elements pertaining to music and dance. The relation of music to precious birds is well known for Late Postclassic Central Mexico\, however it is becoming increasingly clear that a very similar complex existed among the more ancient Classic Maya\, including the wind deity — god of music and closely related to flowers as well as the embodiment of the breath soul. In this study\, I argue that the avian figure in the Initial Series at Chichen Itza constitutes an Early Postclassic form of the wind god and as such\, can be considered as an ancestral form of Ehecatl. Moreover\, the Initial Series Group has the most developed monumental program dedicated to the production of cacao in ancient Mesoamerica\, with the immediate topography strongly indicating why.

SUMMARY:Pizza Talk: "Conflict and Treachery in the Sacred Ridge Community\, Southwest Colorado"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: James Potter\, PaleoWest Archaeology\, INC.This presentation will discuss the formation\, development\, and dissolution of an early prehispanic community in Southwestern Colorado. At its height the Ridges Basin community\, dating from A.D. 750-825\, comprised approximately 75 households organized in pithouse clusters. Households in these clusters were diverse in their backgrounds and social identities\, regularly exercised violence against one another\, and were variably connected to other communities and the larger outside world. The result was a community that developed and changed rapidly\, exhibited fluid boundaries and volatile social relations among households\, and came to a quick and violent end. Various models will be explored to explain the final massacre at the Sacred Ridge site.

SUMMARY:Poles\, Posts\, and Canoes: The Preservation\, Conservation and Continuation of Native American Monumental Wood Carving
DESCRIPTION:This two day symposium (preceded by an opening ceremony and meal on the evening of July 20th) will gather Native and non-Native museum professionals\, tribal members\, and contemporary Native carvers to discuss the challenges of preserving and exhibiting historic monumental wood carvings from both a Native and Non-Native view point. It will also serve to connect Native carvers and the museum community in the hope that the resulting dialogue will help support the continued development of this traditional art form. The format of this gathering is aimed at encouraging discussion\, so presentations will be relaxed and brief\, and an equal amount of time will be scheduled for general discussion of the topics addressed.Registration will open January 21st\, 2014\, and a provisional program will be available at that time. Download symposium registration form here. Email completed form to info@hibulbculturalcenter.org.Symposium registration fees:Early bird discount: $300 (register before May 30\, 2014 to receive the early bird discount!)Full: $350Student: $250 (please provide a copy of your student ID for verification purposes)
