Archaeology of Sindh and Related Areas of Southern Asian Archaeology and Cultural History Archaeology of Sindh and Related Areas of Southern Asian Archaeology and Cultural History The Library of Professor Louis Flam, Lehman College, City University of New York 1567 titles in circa 1650 volumes In Memorium: Professor Louis Flam (Lehman Today, Spring 2016) Associate Professor of Anthropology Louis Flam passed away on February 18, 2016 from diabetes-related complications. He was 71-years-old. Flam joined Lehman College in 1992 and made a significant impact on the lives of both students and colleagues. An outstanding educator, he won the Lehman Excellence in Teaching Award (“Teacher of the Year”) in 2004. Alongside his work and research at the College, Flam carried out archaeological excavations in rural and remote regions of Pakistan. Flam was a native of Clifton, New Jersey. He earned a B.A. in Fine Arts at Rutgers University in 1967, and in 1981, his Ph.D in South Asian Archaeology from the University of Pennsylvania. From 1982 through 1988, he served as Director of the Archaeological and Anthropological Research Center, Institute of Sindhology, University of Sindh in Pakistan. Flam began directing the Sindh Archaeological Project in 1975 when he was a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania and continued his work in the field until 2010. The majority of his manuscripts and publications concerned his research on the Harappan Civilization in the Sindh Province, including his dissertation The Paleogeography and Prehistoric Settlement Patterns in Sindh, Pakistan (ca. 4000-2000). Aside from a large settlement survey of this area, Flam worked to detect changes between the modern flow of the Indus River and the ancient river course. His team was the first to document the presence of the now extinct Nara Nadi river course, which had a role in ancient settlement when it first came into being in the third millennium BC. Flam also uncovered extensive irrigation systems produced by the Indus Civilization in the areas of Kohistan and Kirthar. Changes in the river over time, documented by Flam and his team, provided important evidence for changes in settlement patterns. Flam worked at a number of other archaeological sites during his four decade career, including: Seistan, Afghanistan; Salmon Ruins, New Mexico; the Eleanor Site (ENMU 883), Chaco Canyon, New Mexico; Ban Chiang, Thailand; and on islands off the coast of Kuwait. He spent many years excavating at the site of Ghazi Shah, located in the Dadu District of Pakistan, investigating both earlier components of the Amrian Phase and later ones of the Indus Valley Civilization. Flam had an abiding love for the people and culture of Pakistan that lives on in his work. During his career, Flam was funded by a range of organizations and institutions, including the National Science Foundation, the Smithsonian Institution, the Ford Foundation, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Leakey Foundation. He also received a Fulbright-Hays Pre-doctoral Research Fellowship and four Fulbright Research Grants. Prior to joining the Lehman staff, Flam taught briefly at Rutgers University and Union College. Much beloved by his students at the College, his most popular courses were Ancient Peoples and Cultures, Excavation at the Lehman College Site, and Peoples and Cultures of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India. Unbeknownst to most who knew him, Flam had been battling diabetes since childhood. Despite the many hardships brought on by the illness, he never complained and continued to teach at Lehman until the week before his death. “Louis was so loved by his students and colleagues,” said Victoria Sanford, chair of the anthropology department. “He was generous, courageous, and humble about his many accomplishments. He will be missed by all who knew him.” Louis Flam - Anthropology PhD ProgramAnthropology PhD Program http://anthropology.commons.gc.cuny.edu/louis-flam/ Anthropology PhD Program The Graduate Center, CUNY | Academic Commons Homepage Louis Flam (Ph D U Penn, 1981; Asst Prof) Archaeology, paleoecology, geoarchaeology; South Asia ([email protected] ) Selected Publications L.

The site is an evidence of prehistoric settlement and culture while the artifacts found show a prosperous ancient civilization with advanced technology which had evolved for 5,000 years, such as rice farming, production of bronze and metal tools, and the production of pottery which had its own distinctive characteristics. The prosperity of the Ban Chiang culture also spread to more than a hundred archaeological sites in the Northeast of Thailand.

  • Archaeological Surveys in Lower Sindh: Preliminary Results of the 2009 Season
    Journal of Asian Civilizations -1- Archaeological Surveys in Lower Sindh: Preliminary Results of the 2009 Season Paolo Biagi ABSTRACT In January-February 2009 archaeological surveys were conducted in three different regions of Lower Sindh, from Ranikot, in the north, to the Makli Hills, in the south. They resulted in the discovery of many sites and flint spots within a territory the archaeology of which was previously poorly known. This paper is aimed at the description of these finds, their cultural attribution and, whenever possible, absolute chronology. Particular attention has been paid to the radiocarbon chronology of the sites located on the rocky outcrops that rise from the alluvial plain of the Indus delta, a few of which indicate that seafaring along the northern shores of the Arabian Sea was already active at least since the very beginning of the seventh millennium uncal BP. 1. PREFACE This paper is a preliminary report of the surveys carried out in January and February 2009 in Lower Sindh, between Ranikot, in the north, and the Makli Hills, in the south. The scope of the surveys, which were part of a joint venture by Ca’ Foscari University, Venice (I) and Sindh University, Jamshoro (PK), was to discover new archaeological sites in a territory insufficiently explored, and define their cultural attribution and absolute chronology by radiocarbon dating. Although some parts of the above region had already been surveyed by other authors (see, for instance, MAJUMDAR, 1934; COUSENS, 1998; FRANKE-VOGT, 1999; FLAM, 2006), our attention focused mainly on territories never accurately investigated before. The surveys were conducted by systematic walking in the three main, well- defined areas described in the following chapters (fig.

  • BEATRICE EILEEN DE CARDI Beatrice Eileen De Cardi 1914–2016
    BEATRICE EILEEN DE CARDI Beatrice Eileen de Cardi 1914–2016 BEATRICE DE CARDI, WHO DIED on 5 July 2016 aged 102, achieved the remarkable feat of filling in many of the gaps in our knowledge of the archaeological record over a vast area which stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Khyber Pass. She was able to do this mainly by survey, and then went on to establish the relative chronology of some of the new wares she identified by means of judicious excavation. In addition, she traced some of the connections between her new sites and other better-known ones which provided absolute dates for the new material. She achieved all this without the benefit of permanent institutional backing and never held an academic post, although she was generally acknowledged to be a talented and professional archaeologist. Unusually, she had a second parallel life, until her official retirement, as an outstanding administrator. After retirement she devoted herself solely to archaeology. Beatrice was born, just before the outbreak of the First World War, on 5 June 1914, to a Corsican father and an American mother. She was the second of two daughters. She claimed that one of her earliest memories is of being in the cellar of their house in Ealing during an air raid with her mother dressed in what sounds like full evening dress. Apart from this the war had little impact on her. From an early age Beatrice wanted to be a ballet dancer and, although ill health prevented this, the training she received may well have been the reason for the upright posture and slightly imperious air which stayed with her all her life.1 1 The information on B de C’s life until she joined the Council for British Archaeology comes from an interview she gave to Dr P.-J.
