Archaeological Evidence for the Origins of Affluence
1:00 PM  FVCC
Description:
The series will conclude December 3 with “Archaeological Evidence for the Origins of Affluence,” by Dr. Michael Galaty, associate professor of anthropology at Millsaps College. In his presentation, Galaty will explain how archaeological origins of affluence can be traced to the Neolithic “New Stone" Age and how the transition to agriculture and settled village life may have been adaptations to changes in the environment and prehistoric social life. He will investigate and discuss the first paradox of affluence—why humans left millions of years of egalitarian social relations behind.
This lecture will be shown in AT 204 from 1:00-2:30 pm and in AT 203 from 7:00-8:30 pm.
Free and open to the public.
