Bernstein We made a real coup with the hire of Dr. Robin Bernstein, who comes to us from George Washington University, where she was Assistant Professor of Anthropology and of Anatomy and Regenerative Biology. She is also a Research Collaborator at the National Museum of Natural History and a Research Associate at the Department of Anthropology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her expertise lies in human and non-human primate growth and development; de- velopmental, reproductive, and behavioral endocrinology, and lactation biology. Dr. Bernstein uses tools and approaches from endocrinology to investigate how physio- logical mechanisms mediate evolutionary processes. Her current research centers on bioactive factors in breast milk and their role in mediating maternal effects on infant growth and development, in humans and nonhuman primates. http://humanorigins.si.edu/about/events/scientist-dr-robin-bernstein Dr. Bernstein has numerous professional papers to her credit. CV: http://www.colorado.edu/anthropology/people/bios/bernstein.html Assistant Professor Scott G. Ortman Dr. Scott Ortman will be joining us from his post as Omidyar Fellow at the Santa Fe Institute and as a Lightfoot Fellow at the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center. We are truly fortunate to have this young star among us, with an impressive set of credentials including: 2010 Arizona State University. PhD in Anthropology, School of Human Evolution and Social Change. His dissertation: Genes, Language and Culture in Tewa Ethnogenesis, A.D. 1150-1400, won the 2011 Society for American Archaeology Dissertation Award and his first book was given the University of Utah Press’ annual prize for excellence in substantive research and quality writing on the human experience in the American West: Ortman, Scott G.

University of Utah Press, Salt Lake City. http://www.uofupress.com Find out more about Scott Ortman at: http://www.santafe.edu/media/staff_cvs/Ortman_Vita_011012.pdf Dr. Christian S. Hammons will be joining us as an Instructor for the next three years. Christian is a prodigal son and a spectacular example of the talent currently available to academe. He will be a won- derful addition to our teaching faculty and temporarily fill the void created by our retiring scions. He holds a PhD in Anthropology and an MFA in Film Production from the University of Southern California and graduated with a BA summa cum laude in Anthropology from the University of Colorado Boulder in 1992. Dr. James Loudon (PhD ‘09) will be leaving us for a tenure-track position in the East Carolina University Depart- ment of Anthropology. Three cheers for James! We will miss him and his wildly popular, wildly oversized lectures in Physical Anthropology. 2 Long Term Ecological Research Network Terry McCabe participated in the NSF’s 2012 All Scientists Meeting of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Net- work in Estes Park last September… “to make the case for integrating more anthropologists into the study of ecosys- tems.” The NSF created the LTER Network in 1980 to support long-term research of ecosystems with the understand- ing that many ecosystem processes can only be studied through long-term research. Sites were selected to represent major ecosystem types or natural biomes across the US (there are now also a few international LTER sites). It is one of the most highly funded NSF programs. There is a growing recognition among ecologists that they need to grapple with the human impacts on ecosystems and that the old model of studying isolated and protected reserves to understand ecosystems is no longer valid...However, there are few ecological models that satisfactorily incorporate human complexity. Ecologists may study ecosystem processes at the micro-scale and then jump to the global macro-scale, eg, measuring the impact of global warming on these processes, thus skipping the local, regional, and national scales at which human activities more directly affect ecosystem pro- cesses in myriad ways. This offers opportunities for anthropologists who study complex social-ecological systems using a holistic approach and making linkages across these spatiotem- poral scales. Moreover, anthropologists are no strangers to long-term research as many are involved in ethnographic research in one site over multiple decades... —-Excerpted from Anthropology News on the Web at: http://www.anthropologynews.org/index.php/2013/03/01/anthropologists-at-the-all- scientists-meeting-of-the-long-term-ecological-research-network/ A Fond Farewell to an Old Friend Professor Emeritus Linda Cordell Our longtime colleague in Anthropology, the CU Museum, and more recently, Senior Scholar at the Santa Fe Institute, was found at her desk March 31, peacefully working on a manuscript. She is sorely missed already, both professionally and personally. Please see her bio at SAR: http://sarweb.org/? senior_scholar_linda_s_cordell: In 1992, Linda joined the faculty of the University of Colorado, Boulder as Director of the University of Colorado Museum… and Professor of Anthropology. She served at Colorado until June 2005...she was appointed to the Exter- nal Faculty at the Santa Fe Institute in 2010 and was a keynote speaker at their Spring Science Council Meeting in April 2011. Linda was elected to membership in the National Academy of Sciences in 2005..awarded the A. V. Kidder medal for eminence in American Archaeology by the American Anthropological Association—the second woman to have won the Kidder medal in its 60 years of existence. Linda was also awarded the Byron S. Cummings Award by the Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society in 2004… Fare thee well, Linda.

For the first time, a book series featuring scientific investigations in this fascinating inter- and crossdisciplinary field, will be available. The series will encompass peer-reviewed studies by renowned scholars on both past and living music traditions from South, Central and North America, and thus constitute a platform for the most up-to-date information on the music archaeology of the continent. It will feature case studies and the results of research projects in the field, in which a great variety of music- archaeological approaches are commonly applied. The title of the series, Flower World, refers to a mythological, even sacred place filled with the sweet scent of flowers, bird calls, pleasant sounds, and dance.

  • A Review of the Study of Prehistoric Music and Musicology in Western Musicology
    2020 4th International Conference on Art Design, Language, and Humanities (ADLH 2020) A Review of the Study of Prehistoric Music and Musicology in Western Musicology Kun Yang Lhasa Normal College, Lhasa, 850000, China [email protected] Keywords: Western musicology, Music anthropology, Ethnomusicology Abstract: The study of prehistoric music in western musicology is the premise and foundation of the study of western musicology, and the study of western musicology is the inevitable and result of the study of prehistoric music in western musicology. This paper reviews the study of prehistoric music and western musicology in order to explore the relationship between them. 1. Introduction The study of music and the study of music as a systematic and theoretical discipline are two different concepts. The two start at different times. The study of music generally begins with the creation and recording of writing, sometimes even before the oral communication before the emergence of writing. Because the study of musicology prehistoric music is the premise and foundation to form the history of systematic musicology research, and systematic musicology research is the inevitable and result of musicology prehistoric music research. The study of western musicology began in 1738 with the Societaet der musikalischen Wissenschaft group founded by German musicologist l.mizler, which was formed by dividing the discipline system of musicology into three research fields: historical musicology, systematic musicology and ethnomusicology. 2.

  • A Brief Account of the Development of the Field of Music Archaeology
    Anne Draffkorn Kilmer A Brief Account of the Development of the Field of Music Archaeology The Twelfth Congress of the International Musicological Society was held at the University of California in Berkeley in 1977. A round table discussion group had been formed for the occasion on the topic “Music and Archaeology.” The partici- pants in this group were Berkeley Professors Richard L. Crocker (Chair) and Anne D. Kilmer; other members of the group were Bathja Bayer (Jerusalem), Mantle Hood (Los Angeles), Charles Boiles (Mexico), Ellen Hickmann (Germany), Cajsa Lund (Sweden) and Liang Ming-Yueh (China). All the participants were eager to hear the views held by music historians on the values of the recovery of ancient music (including prehistoric music) and on the benefits of recreating ancient musical instruments. Those contributions, presented either in summary form or in full, were published in the reports from the Twelfth Congress.1 The 1977 round table group effectively launched the “Study Group on Music Archaeology,” founded within the International Council for Traditional Music (ICTM) in Seoul (1981), and recognized by ICTM in New York (1983) after its first meeting in Cambridge (1982). The Study Group on Music Archaeology went on to hold international conferences in Stockholm (1984), Hannover/Wolfenbüttel (1986), Saint Germain-en-Laye (1990), Liège (1992), Istanbul (1993), Jerusalem/ Ramat-Gan (1994/1995, together with the ICTM-Study Group for Iconography) and Limassol (1996). Subsequently, the Music Archaeology Bulletin (MAB) was created of which six issues were published (MAB 1–6) between 1984 and 1986. In 1987 it was replaced by a new “magazine” called Archaeologia Musicalis, spearheaded by Ellen Hickmann, Cajsa Lund and Catherine Homo-Lechner (Paris).
