But are these urban monuments the best representation of the overwhelming majority of the city’s ancient inhabitants?\nA new project has generated promising evidence about other districts of the city. Recent geomorphologic research has revealed the first detailed outline of the ancient coastline. Magnetometry imaging and ground-penetrating radar surveys\, along with excavations conducted within the framework of this project\, have indicated plentiful building activity of non-monumental structures in these areas. Together\, all of these provide a more complete picture of the urban landscape. \nAdmission is free. Presented by the Santa Barbara County Archaeological Society. \nFor more information contact the Museum of Natural History at 805.682.4711. \njwil 02.iv.09 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/new-surveys-in-the-ancient-harbor-district-of-roman-ephesos/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090408T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090408T000000 DTSTAMP:20260419T000341 CREATED:20150928T112802Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112802Z UID:10001652-1239148800-1239148800@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:2nd Annual Ask a Vet Forum DESCRIPTION:Student Veterans at UCSB will be hosting the second annual “Ask A Vet Forum” on Wednesday\, April 8. The purpose of this event is to promote better understanding of student veterans’ issues and to increase awareness of veterans amongst the campus community. Student veterans will address their difficult transition from soldier to student and discuss topics of controversy regarding their military service. Audience members will be able to ask the veterans any questions they desire. Last year\, this event proved to be a huge success and students and veterans left having felt a better understanding of one another. \njwil 25.ii.09 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/2nd-annual-ask-a-vet-forum/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090409T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090409T000000 DTSTAMP:20260419T000341 CREATED:20150928T112803Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112803Z UID:10001534-1239235200-1239235200@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:Virgil's Aeneid from the Aztecs to the Dark Virgin: Latin Poetry and Ethnohistory in Colonial Mexico DESCRIPTION:Virgil’s epic on the fall of Troy and foundation of Rome came to Mexico in the wake of the Spanish conquest. The poem had a role in the earliest accounts of Aztec traditions compiled by Fray Bernardino de Sahagún and his native collaborators\, and in the transmission of classical learning that had begun to develop in New Spain in the 1520s. From the mid-1600s\, the reading and literary imitation of Virgil in Latin inspired poetic panegyrics of the ‘Dark Virgin’\, the Lady of Guadalupe\, who supposedly appeared to a native Mexican in 1531. Much of this lecture will focus on Villerías’ Guadalupe\, a remarkable epic from the early 1700s in order to show how Virgil (and some other classical authors) helped to inform creole constructions of identity and indigenous history during the colonial period\, and to highlight the richness and complexity of Latin culture in Mexico.\nThe speaker is Professor Andrew Laird\, University of Warwick and National Autonomous University of Mexico. \njwil 31.iii.2009 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/virgils-aeneid-from-the-aztecs-to-the-dark-virgin-latin-poetry-and-ethnohistory-in-colonial-mexico/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20090410T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20090410T000000 DTSTAMP:20260419T000341 CREATED:20150928T112804Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112804Z UID:10001659-1239321600-1239321600@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:Empire's Adversaries: Cold War Critics of Colonialism in the United States\, 1945-1960 DESCRIPTION:John Munro is a graduate student in the History Department at UCSB.
