- Professor Colin Renfrew, Senior Research Fellow, McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research at Cambridge University, discusses recent excavations on the Cycladic island of Keros. These excavations have revealed the site of Dhaskalio Kavos as a place of numerous ritual offerings, dating to the Early Bronze Age (ca. 2500 BC). The quality and quantity of painted pottery, stone vessels, and marble sculptures, which were deliberately broken in the course of religious practice before systematically deposited here, provides fresh insight into Early Cycladic life and ritual. Sponsored by the Institute for Aegean Prehistory-INSTAP.
The prefatory part of the lecture wraps up at around 7:20.
Great lecture on an interesting subject and I appreciate that the slides were shown instead of a wide angle of the stage.
Didnt get to see the video, audio is why, and Im at minute 5, just so I can strangle the responsible idiot on comments, that handled the audio.
I did a museum internship at the Cycladic Art Museum 2001. I saw a much newer artifact at the American Indian Museum Arizona that looked so much like the Cycladic Art figurines that the curator here contacted the curator at the museum of Cycladic Art.
Would you happen to have a picture?! As well as assumed tribal associations and dates? Thank you!
There is a tribe call keros in peru
Penn Museum, did you use an Edison Phonograph for this recording?
Leo Schultz be nice if they recordd at audible levels
Leo Schultz sounds like Heart of Darkness lol
I am sure they have an updated RCA one. especially because Penn is so close to Camden.
I liked your comment about the sound quality best.
Can you please do something about the sound? It's terrible!
Poor quality of video and sound, would it be possible to repost this please with better quality? Very interesting content.
Very interesting indeed!
"In 1943, so the story goes, 2000 British soldiers lay marooned on the tiny island of Keros..." (James Robertson Justice, introductory narration, "The Guns Of Navarone", 1961)
before posting a video with crappy sound, find a way to boost the volume
Its not just volume... It's all about the base, bout the bass, no treble... its all about the base, bout the base, no treble...
If you use headphones, you can hear very well, but only on one side.
amazing
What a shame looters diminished the value of this find.
yes, the volumn is so low, I thought my computer has a problem
Dear Professor I would like to ease your confusion about the site
It was joined to all the other islands around as were all the other islands of the Cyclades with Astipalea
All was one body of land

What glorious sarcasm you are so clever that 33 years of my life’s work has been ignored by geniuses like yourself because of course you are all so clever
Get a piece of paper and a gown and the world waits with baited breath for your confusion and arrogance, and for the Professor to, what ,work out a solution, when I just gave him the solution

FY I
I’m not interested in looking at his work I was just trying to help him
The city is mine, put that in your pipe and smoke it
Volume is low and one channel is completely gone (at least in the beginning)! I expect more from the Penn Museum, although this is an eight-year-old video.
All Penn videos are badly shot anyway & always low volume so best to just turn it up.....
Scouting around Keros on Google Earth finds:

36-53-50 N, 25-38-04 E
36-53-36 N, 25-37-10 E (+ 2 nearby shore anomalies?)
36-53-40 N, 25-37-42 E
36-53-41 N, 25-38-00 E
36-53-38 N, 25-38-11 E
36-53-19 N, 25-38-35 E
Probably more and probably nothing new, but just in case.
"looting"
You mean like what museums do?
And no reservoars for vater???
Sacrifaying after smashing was Quite usual in old times of early bronze age! Just look at votive caves in Slovenian Kras area!

Upper one goes with acamedics, lower the audio quality is. I would listen to this lecture, but its not a lecture. Its audio terrorism. Shame on you!
Awful audio as usual, such a shame when you have such eminent speakers.
This is all a matrix. Antikythera.
This is unwatchable
So listen instead, it's like being at school in the 1970's like I was...
