An innovation in museum typology is needed to help tourists interpret the artifacts that been found at the site in a contextual manner. Through a study of literature by experts such as Victoria Newhouse, Stephen Wells, and other authors, and by analyzing successful interpretive center projects, I have developed a document outlining the reasons for on-site interpretive centers and their functions and used this material in a case study at the site of ancient Troy. My study produced a research document regarding museology and design strategy for the physical building, and will be applicable to any new construction on a sensitive site. I hope to establish a precedent that sites can use when adapting to this new type of visitors. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank a number of people for their support while I have been completing this program.

  • CHARACTERISTICS and DISTRIBUTION of LAKES 543 Lake Van Lies in Eastern Anatolia, in Asiatic Turkey, on One of Anatolia
    CHARACTERISTICS AND DISTRIBUTION OF LAKES 543 Lake Van lies in Eastern Anatolia, in Asiatic Turkey, on one of Anatolia. the elevated plains separated by mountain ranges, in the volcanic district of Van, at a height of about 5200 feet above sea-level, and has an area of 2000 square miles. It is 80 miles long and 30 miles broad, and over 80 feet deep. The lake is said to be connected with the Euphrates through the little lake of Nazik, which lies on the water- shed between Lake Van and the river, and sends emissaries to both— a rare phenomenon. Lake of Gyoljuk, 12 miles long by 2 or 3 miles wide, lies 3 degrees west of Lake Van, at an elevation of 4000 feet among the Taurus Mountains, between the head-waters of the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers. Under present climatic conditions the lake is on the divid- ing line between a so-called " normal" fresh-water lake with a per- manent outlet and a salt lake with no outlet. In years of large rain- fall it overflows and forms one of the most remote sources of the Tigris, but in drier years the lake has no outflow during the long rain- less summer. Its waters contain borax, but the amount is not so great as to render the water undrinkable. In former times, judging by the evidence furnished by historical accounts and local traditions, Lake Gyoljuk appears to have fluctuated in size in the same manner and at the same periods as the Caspian Sea, and Ellsworth Huntington l considers that this gives good ground for believing that Turkey has undergone changes in climatic conditions similar to those which have affected Central Asia.

My name is Andre Altherr and I’ll be your Crisis Director for the Cabinet of Armenia: 1920 committee. I’m from New York City and am currently a Second Year at the University of Chicago majoring in History and Political Science. Despite once having a social life, I now spend my free-time on much tamer activities like reading 800-page books on Armenian history, reading 900-page books on Central European history, and relaxing with the best of Stephen King and 20th century sci-fi anthologies. When not reading, I enjoy hiking, watching Frasier, and trying to catch up on much needed sleep. I’ve helped run and participated in numerous Model UN conferences in both college and high school, and I believe that this activity has the potential to hone public speaking, develop your creativity and critical thinking, and ignite interest in new fields. Devin and I care very deeply about making this committee an inclusive space in which all of you feel safe, comfortable, and motivated to challenge yourself to grow as a delegate, statesperson, and human. We trust that you will conduct yourselves with maturity and tact when discussing sensitive subjects.

  • The Menorah and the Cross: Historiographic Reflections on a Recent Discovery from Laodicea on the Lycus
    CHAPTER ELEVEN THE MENORAH AND THE CROSS: HISTORIOGRAPHIC REFLECTIONS ON A RECENT DISCOVERY FROM LAODICEA ON THE LYCUS Figure 55. Column drum fragment inscribed with a menorah and a superimposed cross, Laodicea (courtesy of www.HolyLandPhotos.org). The origins of this essay lie in a visit in 2007 to the city of Laodicea on the Lycus, in what was once Phrygia, in modern Turkey. A colleague, the intrepid Mark Wilson of the Asia Minor Research Center, now in Antalya, directed me to a pile of column fragments west of the Roman cardo, where he told me I would find a fragment with a cross and a menorah. Eventu- ally, I found the pile—which has since become a standard stop on the Christian tourism/pilgrimage route—and with great excitement the col- umn. This fragment, which was published in a brief note by the excavator, Celal Şimşek, in 2006, was discovered in the ruins of Nymphaeum A at Laodicea, “to the north side of the so-called Syrian Road,” a building 196 chapter eleven destroyed in an earthquake in 494 CE.1 The presence of a menorah in the nymphaeum compound at the very center of the city did not surprise me. After all, numerous roughly inscribed menorahs were found in the Sebastion of Aphrodisias from late antiquity, a period during which the erstwhile emperor temple compound was subdivided into shops.2 Similar rough menorahs were found in the shops adjacent to the Sardis synagogue (also a building in the city center),3 on a reused marble slab found in the Library of Celsus in Ephesus, and adorning tombs—including some in nearby Hierapolis (Pamukkale)—at numerous other sites.4 Alternatively, perhaps this well-carved column fragment derived from some lost Jewish communal building—perhaps a synagogue.
