Extractions: Research into Roman provincial organization is inseparable from the study of the evolution of provincial social structures. The authors incorporate this perspective into the landscape archaeological program, "Social Structure and Territory in Roman Iberia." The results of this program in two areas of the Iberian peninsula where mining was practiced intensively during the Roman period, Carthago Noua in the southeast and the peninsular northwest, demonstrate that the Romans took various approaches to social and territorial organization in order to maximize the productivity of mining operations and to adapt to changes in those operations.

Extractions: It is fitting that we meet here today in Lisbon to begin this International Symposium on the Archaeology of Medieval and Modern Ships of Iberian-Atlantic Tradition-fitting because we meet in conjunction with the Lisbon International Exposition, EXPO '98, with its theme: The oceans, a Heritage for the Future. Fitting because we meet on the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula. And especially fitting because we are in Lisbon, in Portugal, with its glorious history of naval power, where modern oceanic voyages really started. I can speak for many of us from other countries when I say how pleased we are for the opportunity to have already seen the new Portuguese National Center for Nautical and Underwater Archaeology, and now to be able to talk to and learn from both old and new colleagues in a city of such historic importance. For making all this possible we are grateful to the hard work and generosity of the Ministry of Culture, the Portuguese Institute of Archaeology, the Portuguese Commissariat at EXPO '98, and the Academia de Marinha, with a special word of thanks to the National Center for Nautical and Underwater Archaeology, and to the untiring Francisco Alves for the enormous task of coordinating it all. I suppose I was fated to be here before you, in this auditorium of the Portuguese Naval Academy, because I grew up in a house near our U.S. Naval Academy, where my father

Extractions: Help The Ave Valley Survey Project Martin Millett, Francisco Queiroga, Kris Strutt, Jeremy Taylor and Steven Willis The aim of the survey is to investigate the Iron Age and Roman periods in the Ave valley in the Minho region of northern Portugal, through the application of surface survey techniques. Initial work utilized the field walking methods used in the Ager Tarraconensis survey with the aim of collecting comparable data. At a later stage more detailed studies of a representative selection of sites was undertaken through the use of geophysical and geochemical techniques. Fieldwork was carried out in four seasons between 1994 and 1997. A further information is available through Internet Archaeology , and the Archaeological Data Service The area selected for the survey comprises part of the basin of the Rio Ave which is the located in Entre-Douro-e-Minho region of northern Portugal (Fig. 1). The region lies on the Atlantic seaboard of the Iberian peninsula at a latitude of 41° 30' North. The Rio Ave discharges into the Atlantic at Vila do Conde c. 20km north of Porto. The survey area itself comprised a zone c. 20km wide running inland from the coast, bounded to the south by the Rio Ave and to the north by the Rio Cávado. Figure 1 The geology of the region is dominated by two zones of granite between which is sandwiched a zone of metamorphic rocks which runs south-eastwards inland from the coast between Navais and Esposende (Fig. 2). The granites are variable in composition varying from medium/coarse to fine grained. A metaphorpic zone comprises principally schists, greywaches quartzites and conglomerates which contain a series of mineralized veins producing gold, tin, zinc and iron.

Extractions: A Meeting of East and West The Classics Department at Royal Holloway , which has a long tradition of excellence in research, has concluded an agreement for a major collaborative project in classical archaeology. Recent political changes in eastern Europe have opened up to western scholars sites previously unavailable and have allowed academics from eastern and western Europe to exchange ideas freely. Against this background, archaeologists from Royal Holloway are working in Phanagoria together with their colleagues from the Institute of Archaeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow. They will be assisted by archaeologists from other colleges within the University of London. This is an exciting new development for British scholarship - there has never been a British archaeological presence in this part of the world. The Classics Department will be carrying out the work under the aegis of the Royal Holloway Hellenic Institute, which is devoted to the study of Greece and the Greek tradition. Where is Phanagoria?

During the ceremony Mayor William Hunter delivered these welcoming remarks: "As a commercial town, we feel ourselves particularly indebted to you for the indulgences which your enlightened representations to the Court of France have secured to our trade. You have freed commerce from its shackles..." Jefferson's reply acknowledged his guests' hospitality: "Accept my sincere thanks for yourself and the worthy citizens of Alexandria, for their kind congratulations on my return to my native country. I am happy to learn that they have felt benefit from the encouragements to our commerce which have been given by an allied nation...."

Extractions: Advertisement As I sit in my hotel room on a crisp night in Santa Fe, New Mexico, my mind reels from the impact of the Clovis and Beyond conference . From October 28 through 31st, 1999, nearly 1,200 people converged on the Sweeney Conference center, to discuss, debate, and scrap over just who were the first people to colonize the American continents. They also came to show their goodies; a whole room was set aside to bring together for the first time people who, like me, are fascinated by the hidden history of the American continent migration. Since my brain is still reeling, I'll restrict this column to a brief list of the top ten things I learned in the last 48 hours. In the long tradition of top ten lists, I'll start with the minor shocks and end with the major earthquake of the weekend. 10. Various attendees were extremely displeased with the presentation of the

Extractions: Portugal has long stood in the shadow of her powerful neighbor on the Iberian Peninsula. With 3,000 years of history dating to the time when Greek and Phoenician traders established settlements here, Portugal was once part of the Roman Empires. It was not until the mid-12th century that Portugal emerged as a nation with its own culture and language, only to become a super power in the New World by the 15th century.

Extractions: [Original headline: Kenosha dig points to Europe as origin of first Americans] A contentious theory that the first Americans came here from Europe - not Asia - is challenging a century-old consensus among archaeologists, and a dig in Kenosha County is part of the evidence. The two leading proponents of the Europe theory admit that many scientists reject their contention, instead holding fast to the long-established belief that the first Americans arrived from Siberia via a now-submerged land bridge across the Bering Sea to Alaska. The first of the Europe-to-North America treks probably took place at the height of the last Ice Age more than 18,000 years ago, said Dennis Stanford, curator of archaeology at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and Milwaukee native Bruce Bradley, an independent archaeological consultant and research associate of the Carnegie Museum. Stanford and Bradley contend that if the original migration came from Europe, it would be logical to find more older sites in the eastern United States, as has been the case in recent years.

Extractions: http://www.usd.edu/~clehmann/pir/tarracon.htm "By a strange fortuity, Spain was the Peru of the ancient world. The horrors of the mines in South America, the sufferings of the Indians, were copied, so to speak, from the early history of the people who inflicted them. When the Phoenicians first entered the harbours of Andalusia they found themselves in a land where silver was used as iron. They loaded their vessel with the precious metal to the waters edge, cast away their wooden lead-weighted anchor, and substituted a lump of pure silver in its stead. Afterwards factories were established, arrangements were made with the chiefs for the supply of labour, and the mining was conducted on scientific principles. The Carthaginians succeeded the Phoenicians, and remained, like them, only on the coast". http://www.exclassics.org/martyrdom/martc18.htm The geography of the Iberian peninsula dictates the nature of military activity there. As King Henry IV of France would observe, Spain is a country where "large armies starve and small armies get beaten." Large armies, in fact, could operate easily only along the coast or near major rivers, where waterborne transport eased logistical problems. As the Pyrenees seal of Spain from the rest of Europe, the central plateau likewise inhibits communications from the eastern and southern regions to the interior. For an army invading the peninsula from the northeast, the most advantageous approach follows the coast south as far as the Tader River. From there an army could continue south or turn inland to enter the valley of the Baetis.
