4 5 LOOKING BACK The Penn Museum’s 125th Anniversary

125 Years and Still Exploring

At 10 am on December 6, 2012, the Penn Museum opened its doors on a very special celebration of its official founding exactly 125 years earlier. Over the next 12 hours, more than 1,000 visitors poured in, packing the galleries to chat with Museum curators, researchers, and staff, taking tours of storage areas, and enjoying the chance to question conservators restoring Egyptian mummies in the new exhibition In the Artifact Lab and examine choice holdings from the Archives.

Evening visitors enjoyed hearing from five of the Kolb Junior Fellows about their widely varied archaeological and anthropological projects, and family visitors went on special flashlight tours through the galleries, demand for which (even on a school night) was so high that the first group had to be split into two, sharing their flashlights! Museum members had a special opportunity to see rare objects normally housed in the Museum’s vaults brought to the Collections Study Room for the occasion, and were then invited to share a champagne toast with Williams Director Julian Siggers. A special 125th anniversary issue of Expedition magazine included “A Brief History of the Museum” by Senior Archivist Alessandro Pezzati, and an overview of the most noted expeditions and collections within each Curatorial Section. This was complemented by a major new feature on the Museum’s website—an interactive Research Map and Timeline made possible by generous support from Alexandra Schoenberg and Eric J. Schoenberg, Ph.D., GEN93, WG93, and Gretchen R. Hall, Ph.D., CGS97. Initially launched on December 6, 2012, with profiles of 125 research projects for the 125th anniversary, it was gradually updated with profiles on many more projects throughout the remainder of the year.

6 7 LOOKING FORWARD

A New Mission | Transforming Understanding Following a year of reflection, evaluation, and planning for the future, fostered through a series of conversations among its staff and stakeholders, the Penn Museum closed 2012–2013 with a redefinition of its mission:

The Penn Museum transforms understanding of the human experience.

The reflections that led to this redefinition closely considered the four central pillars equally important in driving everything we do—excellence in research, teaching, collections stewardship, and public engagement—and to a further redefinition of those pillars articulating how we actualize the mission:

n We expand knowledge of the human story through archaeological and anthropological research and fieldwork. n We share knowledge and our collections in classrooms, galleries, and laboratories. n We preserve and steward one of the world’s great archaeological and ethnographic collections. n We engage the University and our local, national, and global communities through exceptional galleries, exhibitions, programs, and digital content. As we move forward in our planning, achieving excellence, effectiveness, and professionalism in each of these four pillars will form our four central goals, with the overarching goal of financial and operational sustainability. The following pages look back at Penn Museum accomplishments in all of these areas in 2012–2013, and recognize with gratitude the donors who made those accomplishments possible.

9 RESEARCH We expand knowledge of the human story through archaeological and anthropological research and fieldwork.

Research Projects around the World

The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology was established in 1887 with a groundbreaking act of archaeological field research—the first American expedition to ancient Babylonia to excavate the site of Nippur (then within the Ottoman Empire, but now in modern-day Iraq). Since then, the Museum has undertaken over 300 research projects throughout the world. This active program of research continues today and the following are highlights from the Museum’s research projects in 2012–2013.

On the Continent of Africa

IN MAY 2013, Dr. Kathleen Ryan and Dr. Mulu Muia led a team of Kenyan archaeologists from the National Museums of Kenya to the Mpala Research Center in Laikipia. They were joined by Adjunct Associate Professor Mary Martin of the University of the Arts. The focus of this season centered on a possible human burial first located in 2007. The area had been off limits for several years, being reserved for military training. This year the team was finally able to locate the outlines of the burial area and excavate. At about 20 to 30 cm below the surface they identified ostrich shell beads and a few obsidian artifacts, but no human remains. More than a hundred beads were recovered and taken to the National Museums of Kenya for study and eventual storage. Photos by Mary Martin.

On the Continent of Africa

UNDER THE DIRECTION of Dr. Josef Wegner and with assistance from Dr. Jennifer Wegner, the Abydos Expedition undertook fieldwork during two periods—December 2012 to January 2013 and May-June 2013. Both field seasons were made possible by a generous gift from John R. Rockwell and Frances Rockwell. During this time, significant progress was made on the long-term project to document the interior of the tomb of Senwosret III. Work on two immense chambers in the central part of the tomb exposed a carefully built room complex that may have been originally used for the burial of boats. During May-June 2013, with additional support from the University Research Foundation and Elizabeth Jean Walker, the Penn team continued excavations at the administrative area of the mayoral residence in the Middle Kingdom town site (Wah-Sut). Some 2,000 clay seal impressions were recovered. The team worked with new techniques to increase speed and accuracy of seal recording including application of reflectance transformation imaging (RTI). Many new seals were recovered bearing the names and titles of the ancient occupants of Wah-Sut. Also during May and June, with additional support from the Director’s Field Fund, excavations were completed in several key areas of the greater site with the goal of tracing the evolution of the private mortuary landscape and examining cemeteries associated with the ancient population of South Abydos. A series of tombs primarily dating to the New Kingdom were excavated. Two of the highlights of this work include the partially robbed pyramid-tomb of a New Kingdom official named Horemheb. His sandstone sarcophagus still remained in the burial chamber along with a significant set of elite burial goods characteristic of the late 18th Dynasty. One kilometer away, near the tomb of Senwosret III, a massive royal sarcophagus chamber weighing approximately 50 tons was discovered. This remarkable feature had been dislodged in antiquity from a nearby ruined royal pyramid which may belong to one of the last two pharaohs of Egypt’s 12th Dynasty—Amenemhat IV or the female pharaoh Sobekneferu. Work in 2013–2014 will continue the investigation of the original pyramid context of the sarcophagus chamber and its relationship to the royal mortuary enclosure of Senwosret III at South Abydos.

12 From the Near East to South East Asia

IN 2012–2013, the Naxç1van Archaeological Project, directed by Dr. Lauren Ristvet and colleagues at the National Academy of Sciences in Azerbaijan, continued their investigation into the origins of cities and states in the South Caucasus. This year, survey, done in association with Dr. Emily Hammer of New York University, focused on documenting the landscape around Oğlanqala, the largest Iron Age fortress in Azerbaijan. As part of this work, Penn students located new campsites, documented a large medieval tomb, and planned a series of fortresses. The most exciting discovery was a gigantic settlement, covering nearly five square kilometers, which surrounded the fortress at Oğlanqala. A stone wall, still standing up to one meter (3.28 feet) high, probably once enclosed the entire city. This shows that Oğlanqala was one of the largest cities in the Ancient Near East and provides some of the first evidence for the nature of urbanism in this region. Further excavations and magnetometry work within the settlement are planned for 2013– 2014. Photos by Naxç1van Archaeological Project.

14 From the Near East to South East Asia

THE MIDDLE MEKONG ARCHAEOLOGICAL PROJECT under the direction of Dr. Joyce White undertook a field season from December 2012 to early February 2013 in Luang Prabang, Laos. The research was funded by a grant from the Henry Luce Foundation to strengthen Southeast Asian Archaeology, as well as funds from partner institutions. This year’s program emphasized collecting and recording a variety of biological data, including archaeobotanical and faunal data from four MMAP cave excavations, and under the direction of Dr. Stephen Oppenheimer of the University of Oxford (top left), human DNA from modern villagers. The MMAP archaeobotanical identifications and DNA data were the first such data ever collected in Laos. The multi-national team also built upon previous efforts. The Museum’s Head of Information Technology, Shawn Hyla, designed and set up a wireless local area network (LAN) in the MMAP Luang Prabang lab enabling the team to enter data directly from laptops into the MMAP regional database situated on a mini- server. The palaeoclimatology team, directed by Dr. Kathleen Johnson of the University of California, Irvine, together with Dr. Andrea Borsato of the University of Newcastle, Australia, collected additional speleothems (stalagmites) to complete the climate data (precipitation and temperature) from the region for the past 50,000 years. Dr. Elizabeth Hamilton worked with the Lao team to finish recording more than 11,500 artifacts excavated from the MMAP sites. She also worked with our new GIS specialist, Kim Samnang from Siem Reap, Cambodia, to migrate MMAP site locations to the Google Earth projection. The team mounted a photo exhibition on the grounds of the Palace Museum that reviewed MMAP’s research and capacity-building program since 2001. Photos by Middle Mekong Archaeological Project.

Around Europe and the Mediterranean

IN 2013, during the second year of a three-year grant from the National Science Foundation and with additional support from the Director’s Field Fund, work continued at the site of La Ferrassie, located in southwestern France, under the co-direction of Dr. Harold Dibble. La Ferrassie is one of the classic Neandertal sites, and it was there that several individual Neandertals were discovered in the early 1900s. The goals of this project are to obtain absolute dates for the Neandertal layers, to reconstruct the formation processes that have affected the sediments there, and to obtain fresh samples of the archaeological assemblages. Photo by Harold L. Dibble.

BEGINNING IN 1929, excavations uncovered an area just within the western city wall of Ancient Corinth, Greece. It came to be called the Potters’ Quarter, as the large quantity of misfired pottery, wasters, and try-pieces found in dumps and deposits in the area made it clear that this was indeed where Corinthian pottery, particularly of the 7th and 6th centuries BCE, was manufactured. Dr. Ann Blair Brownlee is studying the Corinthian pottery from the Potters’ Quarter. She has been identifying the work of many Corinthian artists, and this had led to a detailed study of the potters and painters workshops represented in the Potters’ Quarter. Corinthian pottery was exported all over the Mediterranean world in this period, so she is also considering the export patterns of the work of these Corinthian artists. During the summer of 2013, she was joined by Penn graduate student and Kolb Junior Fellow Amanda Reiterman, who is working with Bice Peruzzi, a graduate student at the University of Cincinnati, on a related Potters’ Quarter project that focuses on the technical aspects of pottery production and technology.

16 Around Europe and the Mediterranean

THE PENN MUSEUM’S 2013 SEASON at Gordion in central Turkey was divided between architectural conservation and new excavations on the citadel mound, and was led again by Dr. C. Brian Rose. A new trench was excavated at the entrance to a long road of Phrygian date, and the discoveries within it spanned a period from the Early Phrygian period (9th century BCE) to the Roman period (1st century CE). The most significant discovery was an enormous new stepped stone glacis or terrace wall, which stretched for a length of over 40 meters (130 feet). Thirteen steps of the glacis were revealed, although it probably continues down around three to five meters (10-15 feet) further. This means that the glacis and the wall it supported rose to a height of more than ten meters (30 feet). This is clearly part of the citadel’s fortification system, possibly connected to a gate, and probably of Early Phrygian date. Remote sensing (magnetic prospection and electric resistivity) was also an important component of the summer’s fieldwork. New geophysical investigations in the residential district or Outer Town revealed that it was completely encircled by a large wall, probably of mudbrick, that was bordered by a defensive ditch approximately four meters (13 feet) wide. Such a large network of fortifications around the residential district was unexpected, and they must have rivaled the defensive ditches of the Late Bronze Age site of Troy. Eleven new information signs were installed around the site, along with new galvanized steel fencing and over 90 meters (300 feet) of new stone paths and stairs around the citadel. Conservation work on the stone walls of the Early Phrygian (9th century BCE) industrial quarter continued, under the auspices of Penn’s Historic Preservation program, and a new stabilization project was inaugurated at the Early Phrygian city gate. Lead support for the 2013 season was generously provided by the C.K. Williams II Foundation, the J.M. Kaplan Fund, the Selz Foundation, and the Loeb Classical Library Foundation. Additional support was provided by the Director’s Field Fund. Photos by C. Brian Rose.

PENN STUDENTS JOINED SOUTH JERSEY PROJECT Director Dr. Robert L. Schuyler in exploring the “above ground archaeology” of Vineland, New Jersey (1861 to the Present), in the fall of 2012. The project also visited and studied the major ecological zones of the Garden State, especially the Pine Barrens and the Jersey Shore. Some of the earliest colonial sites in the state, such as the town of Salem (1675) with its ancient oak, the Hancock House (1730s), along with Victorian Period sites (Joseph Wharton’s Batsto village), and 20th century communities (Sea Isle City and Wildwood) were surveyed. As a foundation for future studies, the Project also began looking at the standing historic buildings (domestic homes, churches, and monuments) in Vineland itself. Photo by Dawn Di Stefano.

SILVER REEF was a mining town in extreme southwestern Utah with a short community life span. In the 1870 census it did not exist, in 1880 it had 1,050 inhabitants, and by 1890 it was basically dead. Between 1980 and 2000 the Silver Reef Project, under the direction of Dr. Robert L. Schuyler, carried out excavations and detailed archival searches on this frontier community. In May 2013, with support from the Director’s Field Fund, the very large Silver Reef surface collection (from 1981) was returned to Utah with a U-Haul. After more analysis of these materials on the site, 107 boxes of artifacts were placed in the Silver Reef Museum. Work on the final part of this collection (Chinatown materials) was completed in a temporary Public Archaeology Lab set up on the site in the reconstructed Cosmopolitan Restaurant. In 1987, the Project had excavated the backyard of this structure and the wooden building itself was reconstructed in the 1990s. Local volunteers helped in the analysis. Dr. Schuyler also started a “public archaeology” effort at the site with the help of the Silver Reef Foundation. A number of well-attended public lectures, newspaper and video interviews, Boy Scout talks, and guided tours of the ghost town (one of which was videotaped) and its historic cemeteries, were used to reintroduce the local public to the project. In 1980, when the Silver Reef Project was initiated, the local county seat of St. George had a population of about 11,000—the current population is almost 100,000. Future plans will involve returning each May to Utah to continue analysis of the stored materials and to expand the public program. Photos by Robert L. Schuyler.

On the Penn Campus

SIMON MARTIN specializes in Maya epigraphy—the deciphering of ancient Maya hieroglyphs (mostly produced between 200 and 900 CE)—to investigate the political history, social structure, and religious beliefs of this complex New World culture. He continues to work with his Mexican colleagues from the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Calakmul and, although there was no fieldwork in 2012–2013, two publications on the history of the local royal dynasty and the “painted pyramid” mural program were completed and published. Two other collaborative projects concentrated on issues in ancient Maya chronology.

DR. DAVID SILVERMAN continues his research and publication of artifacts in the Penn Museum collection, as the political situation in Egypt prevents working at Saqqara (not far from Cairo). Inscriptions on the walls of the Penn Museum’s Middle Kingdom coffin of Ahanakhte (top right)—one of the objects under study In the Artifact Lab—have been recorded and are being transcribed into hieroglyphs and translated. Examination of associated sections of wooden boards has revealed parts of four unusual canopic boxes—containers for the mummified internal organs of the deceased. A small section of an inscribed wooden board (middle right) appears to be part of another coffin of the same individual. The Penn Museum’s Late Ramesside robbery papyrus will soon be joined electronically with its upper half in the British Museum and work continues on publishing the Penn Museum’s Old Kingdom tomb of the official of the Treasury, Kapure. Lead support of the Egyptian Research Fund in 2013 was generously provided by Susan and Cummins Catherwood, M. Kate Pitcairn, and the Pew Charitable Trusts.

DR. HOLLY PITTMAN spent the last academic year finishing a major article on the Uruk period arguing for the central importance of visual imagery for our understanding of that period of the first Mesopotamian cities. She also continued her work on the glyptic coming from the excavations at the site of Konar Sandal South near the modern city of Jiroft in south-central Iran. This material continues to illuminate the vibrant Bronze Age civilization that flourished on the Iranian Plateau contemporary with the Royal Cemetery of Ur. A third project that occupied her research is her ongoing Penn Museum project preparing the final publication of the excavations (seen in the plan) at the site of Al Hiba in southern Iraq. Al Hiba was the capital of the ancient city-state of Lagash during much of the 3rd millennium BCE in southern Mesopotamia. Dr. Pittman participated in the last season of excavation at the site in 1990, when she became a joint collaborator with the Director Donald P. Hansen at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. Upon his death, she assumed responsibility for the analysis and presentation of the results of that important effort. This project is funded by a multiyear grant from the White-Levy Archaeological Publication Fund. During the fall of 2012, Dr. Pittman spent two weeks working with the Italian team from “La Sapienza” in Rome at the site of Arslantepe in Turkey preparing the glyptic from the earliest levels for publication. The summer of 2013 saw a three-week research trip to Moscow (Russia), Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan in order to explore the connections between the Iranian plateau and Central Asia during the Bronze Age.

21 RESEARCH

On the Penn Campus

FIVE OF THE PENN MUSEUM’S ANCESTRAL PUEBLOAN MUMMIES from the U.S. Southwest, ranging in date from 1500 BCE to 1500 CE, are part of a large global study (137 mummies in total) of the health and disease of peoples in the past. A surprising result emerged early this year, showing that atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) is part of the human condition independent of diet or environment. As seen in the two mummies from the Mummy Project depicted in 3D rendered CT scans, there is clear evidence of plaque in the carotid artery in the mummy shown above, and in both right and left carotid arteries in the mummy shown below. The latter also shows the disease in two arteries in the upper chest—the subclavian and the brachiocephalic. This potentially life-threatening condition, that can lead to heart attacks and strokes, was found in 34 percent of the mummies studied and, as in modern populations, the incidence and number of arteries effected, increased with age. In other words, atherosclerosis is not exclusively part of modern life and life styles, but is indeed best understood as part of the evolutionary history of humans. The ancient world, in the form of the preserved soft tissues of mummies, now informs the biomedical world on the ubiquitous nature of arterial disease. Photos by Randall Thompson.

THE 900 NEANDERTAL BONES from the site of Krapina, Croatia, excavated in the late 1800s, still yield new and relevant information about our ancient ancestors. In the spring of 2013, evidence from a small rib fragment, mostly overlooked by researchers emphasizing the more complete bones of the skull, indicates that our Neandertal ancestors had the same type of bone tumor that is present in modern humans today. In fact, this is the earliest evidence by far, more than 100,000 years older, than any evidence of a tumor in any ancient human excavated to date. Analysis takes this association with modern humans even further. It appears that the Krapina collection also has the earliest evidence of an amputation—of the hand, just above the wrist— and that this Neandertal lived a long time after the ancient surgery.

Student Teaching, Engagement, and Research

The Penn Museum enriches the academic and social lives of our student community, and over the past year the Museum has continued to expand its participation in academic and social programs across the University. Select examples illustrate our global perspective and impact.

Teaching Penn Students Pottery Analysis During the Fall 2012 semester and in collaboration with Penn’s Classical Studies Department, the Museum sponsored a new undergraduate course on “Pottery & Archaeology.” Led by Dr. Marie- Claude Boileau, students learned how to describe, analyze, and interpret archaeological pottery. The Museum’s Archaeological Ceramics Laboratory provided the necessary teaching space, reference materials, and analytical instruments for lectures and hands-on sessions. In the Spring 2013 semester, different Penn graduate and undergraduate science- based archaeology courses used the Archaeological Ceramics Laboratory microscope facilities for specific student projects and guest lectures involving thin-section petrography of pottery.

Center for the Analysis of Archaeological Materials Over the past year a new teaching initiative has begun to take shape: the Center for the Analysis of Archaeological Materials (CAAM). In September 2012 an Ad Hoc Committee was formed by then School of Arts and Sciences Dean Rebecca Bushnell and Williams Director Julian Siggers. The Ad Hoc Committee consisted of Museum representatives and faculty members from the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) and the School of Design. It was charged with creating a report which would inform the teaching of archaeological sciences as a joint operation of SAS and the Museum. The Committee’s principal recommendation was the formation of a new teaching center, CAAM, which would be housed in the Museum and built around the Museum’s new laboratory facilities in the West Wing.

27 COLLECTIONS STEWARDSHIP We preserve and steward one of the world’s great archaeological and ethnographic collections.

Building Renovations and Upgrades

Significant progress was made during 2012–2013 in the ongoing process of revitalizing the Museum’s building infrastructure. Thanks to a magnificent lead gift from Donald C. and Ingrid Graham, the Graham Foundation, and additional generous support from Peggy and Bruce Mainwaring, the renovation of the Widener Lecture Room in the Museum’s West Wing was completed, restoring what had become a rather decrepit workshop space to its original architectural splendor, and creating a state-of-the-art, multi-purpose space that can be utilized for lectures, conferences, and meetings, as well as for catered events. This project restored the space to the use originally intended when the Museum was first constructed in the late 19th century. The Widener Lecture Room was re-dedicated during the Museum’s Making History Campaign Closing celebration on April 18, 2013, in a program in which Provost Vincent Price welcomed guests from the same stage on which his predecessor, Provost Charles Custis Harrison, had accepted the Museum on behalf of the University as a gift from its Board of Managers, during the Museum dedication ceremony in December 1899. In addition, during the year the designs for new conservation and teaching labs were completed in anticipation of the final phase of the West Wing renovations. Creating stable environmental conditions is the most significant step the Museum can take for the long-term preservation of the collections under its stewardship. Aside from the Mainwaring Wing, which has climate-controlled collections storage, and the recently renovated West Wing spaces that include climate-controlled galleries, the remainder of the Museum’s historic building requires climate control, lighting, and other system upgrades suitable for its world class collections. A key component of the Museum’s capital plan is to improve the stewardship of its assets, including its collections, excavation, and expedition archives, by expanding the Museum’s capacity to undertake conservation efforts and adequately curate and store its collections in climate-controlled and secure facilities.

28 Expanding Our Collections | New Acquisitions During 2012–2013, the Penn Museum Acquisitions Committee reviewed acquisitions and purchase proposals on three occasions in the summer, fall, and spring. Based on recommendations from the Acquisitions Committee as well as from the Curatorial Sections and the Archives, the Museum approved 11 donations and three purchases of cultural objects, three donations of documentary prints, and three donations of other materials.

From the 11 donations of cultural objects, a total of 96 objects were accessioned into the Museum’s American, African, Asian, and Mediterranean Section collections. Among the highlights was a collection of 77 African musical instruments, assembled and widely published by ethnomusicologist Dr. Thomas F. Johnston and donated by his daughter Margaret E. Johnson. Five Tibetan objects, gifts from the Tibetan monks in Nepal to Dr. Carl W. Friedricks who in turn gave them to William E. and Romaine B. Macht in 1962, were donated by Romaine B. Macht. A Herero doll, purchased in Maun, Botswana, in 1986, was gifted to the Museum by Stephen R. Mishkin and Paula J. Schweich. A Mami Wata wooden sculpture, purchased in Ikot Ekpene, southeastern Nigeria in 1986, was a donation from Kate and Shapoor Pourshariati.

30 Preserving Our Collections | Conservation Work The Museum’s Conservation Department plays a key role in the preservation and care of the Museum’s roughly one million objects.

Major Projects The biggest new project for the Conservation Department during 2012–2013 was the opening in September 2012 of In the Artifact Lab: Conserving Egyptian Mummies, a combination exhibition and conservation lab open to the public. Funded by a generous gift from Overseer John R. (Rick) Rockwell and his wife Frances, and developed in collaboration with the Museum’s Exhibitions Department and Egyptian Curatorial Section, the Artifact Lab has been a great success, attracting much attention from media, visitors, and thousands of blog followers from all over the world. Rockwell Project Conservator Molly Gleeson even filmed a segment for an Irish television broadcast via Skype.

32 A Rich History | The useumM Archives The Museum Archives is the repository for the administrative and scientific documentation and research produced by the Museum. In addition to its role as preserver of Museum history, the Archives is involved in all aspects of Museum work, contributing to the research mission, public exhibitions, digital projects, documentation of collections, and the sale of rights and reproductions of Museum images.

Ongoing and New Collaborations The Museum has produced the first DVD release of the Navajo Film Themselves, a historic collection of seven films by Navajo filmmakers that resulted from Penn Professor Sol Worth’s seminal 1966 project. These films have not been available before to students and the public, except on 16mm film. The project was funded through a generous donation from Adolf A. and Geraldine Paier. The DVD includes behind-the-scenes footage of the project, as well as a short film depicting the return of the films to Pine Springs, Arizona. Film Archivist Kate Pourshariati presented several of these films at the American Museum of Natural History’s Margaret Mead Film Festival in December 2012 to a sold-out audience. Film Archivist Kate Pourshariati was also invited to speak at the University of Michigan about the film Native Life in the Philippines (1913). The Penn Museum’s copy of this film appears to be the only one in existence and this presentation has initiated a wider collaboration with the Filipina anthropologist Analyn Thunderbird, silkscreen print by Tony Hunt, highlighted in the exhibition Art from the Salvador-Amores for use of the film and its digital return to the Archives: Northwest Coast and Inuit Prints and Drawings.

34 Preserving Knowledge | Digitizing Collections and Research Archives More than a home for a world-class collection of artifacts, the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology is a repository of detailed archaeological and ethnographic information preserved not only in the artifacts themselves but in their relationships to each other and their well-documented contexts. These contexts include excavations recorded in painstaking detail as well as ethnographic expeditions that brought entire assemblages of cultural material back to the Museum. In an attempt to preserve and share the wider cultural knowledge embedded in these excavation archives and ethnographic sub-collections, the Museum is undertaking a number of digital archive projects that will capture much of this information and make it accessible to a wider audience online and transform the way scholars sort and analyze these records and materials in their attempts to understand the world’s past and present cultures. The following are some examples of digital projects currently underway in the Museum.

The KE EMu Collections Database Project In 2010, KE EMu (Electronic Museum) became the Museum’s new collections database system, ushering in a new era for the Museum’s collections management in the digital age. Throughout 2012–2013, the Collections Information Management System (CIMS) Committee continued to lead the process of standardizing the Museum’s existing collection information and helped guide the addition of new kinds of data to EMu (e.g. scientific analysis, inscriptions, translations, and the use of our collections by researchers and courses taught at Penn). In June 2013, the Registrar’s Office, in conjunction with the Museum’s Curatorial Sections, completed a review of 450,000 catalog cards and transcribed information from the cards into EMu. As a result, more than 270,000 object records were improved and more than 10,000 new records added to the database.

Simultaneously, the Museum’s Collections Online Collections Database screenshot Staff (i.e. Archives, Conservation, Curatorial Sections, and the Registrar’s Office) have added more than 40,000 digital images of the world to allow anyone to download its collections metadata objects to EMu in the last year, many of which and use it to suit their own research interests under the are available online. permissive CC BY 3.0 Creative Commons license (www.penn.

The Middle Mekong Archaeological Project Regional Database Digitization of the Penn Museum’s archaeological research in Southeast Asia has its roots in the 1970s. At that time an NSF grant to then Assistant Curator Chester Gorman enabled the computerization of thousands of artifacts from Ban Chiang (now a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and related sites that the Penn Museum excavated in Thailand using the computer technology of the time—room-size computers and 80-column punch cards. Fast forward to the 21st century and these original data are being brought into a modern digital framework. Volunteer John Hastings did the first migration from a mainframe to a desktop database in the 1990s. These same data are now being migrated by Dr. Elizabeth Hamilton into a completely updated relational database that also includes the data currently being collected by the Middle Mekong Archaeological Project (MMAP) in Laos. Among the many advances of modern databases over their early antecedents is the relative ease by which images such as digitized photographs and drawings can be linked or otherwise associated with the observational data recorded from an object. The picture speaking a thousand words turns codes and numbers into a tangible and visual window on the material world of a past society. The associated coded data mean that the object can be quantitatively compared with other similar artifacts across space and time.

Teams in both Laos and in Philadelphia were trained in artifact digital photography, in how to organize and modify the images, and then in how to insert them into the database. In 2013–2014, with support from the Henry Luce Foundation, we hope to complete the migration of the original Ban Chiang digital data, in preparation for its eventual posting online as a sharable digital resource and archive.

The Digital Research Archives Project The Digital Research Archives Project, the Penn Museum’s effort to facilitate research and accelerate publication of long- standing excavations, continued to make progress during the past year under the direction of Dr. Gabriel Pizzorno and Dr. Gareth Darbyshire.

36 Work continues on the integration of the different digital assets into a database and a Geographic Information System as research progresses and the first volume of the final publications for the site is prepared. Work also continued apace with the digitization of the Gordion materials, the largest and most complex of our datasets. Work continued on scanning the more than 40,000 photographs that comprise the Gordion 35 mm negative corpus. Over 90 percent of the negatives have been processed. Significant inroads have also been made with the transcription of the negative lists that contain information about the photographs, with about two thirds of the work completed; quality assurance has been performed for nearly 10,000 of the images, and those images have been linked to their corresponding metadata. During the Summer of 2013, after a six- year hiatus, a new series of excavations started at Gordion.

In order to ensure correct assignment, the project must examine every object from Ur, a process that has already begun with the sample data in the feasibility study. Photographs, measurements, and observations of artifacts are entered into the database, noting any discrepancies. Field notes, reports, photos, and even financial records will be scanned, and eventually site maps will be digitized and connected with the data. All of the information will be made available to researchers through an online interface which is slated to begin testing in mid-2014. Input from users will make the site better as it continues to grow, and researchers the world over will be able to investigate Ur as never before, helping all to understand the site and ancient Mesopotamia more fully.

Through the lens of archaeology and anthropology, the Penn Museum continued to present exhibitions highlighting significant topics, conveyed through interesting narratives, remarkable objects, engaging interactive experiences, and supplemented by rich visitor engagement opportunities. During 2012–2013, the Museum invited visitors behind the scenes of the conservation process, updated existing exhibitions based on visitor feedback, explored race dynamics in two anthropological exhibitions, and hosted one of the most well-preserved objects in history.

The Making and Unmaking of Race (September 2, 2012 – ongoing) Trescher Entrance Lobby, 1st Floor

Does race exist in human beings? Since the emergence of biology and anthropology, scientists began to develop categories for all living things on Earth, including humans. But what can the categorization of humans tell us? And how might this information be helpful or harmful? Race is only one way of categorizing human variation. The Penn Museum houses the notorious Morton Collection of skulls, originally collected to confirm commonly held 19th century European and North American beliefs about racial hierarchy.

62 Summer Camp

“Anthropologists in the Making” Summer Camp Children ages 7 through 13 participate in the “Anthropologists in the Making” summer day camp, taking them through time and across continents. The annual camp runs from late June through mid- August. Each week highlights a different theme, offering campers the opportunity to enjoy one week or all eight. Through gallery tours, arts and crafts, games and Summer Camp theatrics, scavenger hunts, and special guest performances, children uncover the secrets of the past. Themes during the summer of 2012 included “Game On!,” “African Kingdoms,” “Digging in the Dirt,” “Museums 101,” “Who Is Who in Ancient Egypt,” “A Classical Odyssey,” and “Contact!” Some key highlights from the 2012 summer camp were a mock excavation of a Maya site, a Skype call to the ball court of Chichen Itza, an “early man” competitive obstacle course, and a behind-the-scenes visit to the Museum Archives to view early architectural prints of the Penn Museum.

Summer Wonder Performing Arts Series Summer Wonder introduces diverse cultures and cultural perspectives through the performing arts. Well attended by both the Penn Museum and outside summer camps, the performances are also open to Museum visitors. Approximately 1,500 summer campers and family guests celebrated the summer through music, song, dance, and storytelling at the Penn Museum’s annual Summer Wonder performing arts series. Highlights from the eight-week series in 2012 included an Irish dance from Rebel Heart Irish Dancers, a miming demonstration from Bill Bowers, and a traditional Aztec dance from Ollin Yoliztli Calmecac.

64 Sharing Our Collections | Outgoing Loans and Traveling Exhibitions Between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013, the Penn Museum lent 336 different items from its collections to 19 institutions around the world, with many of the objects making multiple stops along their itinerary. Encompassing artifacts from the Museum’s many Curatorial Sections—African, American, Asian, Babylonian, Egyptian, Mediterranean, Near East, and Oceanian— as well as the Museum Archives, these loans generally formed part of larger exhibitions curated and designed by other museums, either for showcase in their own galleries or for the purpose of traveling the exhibition to multiple venues. By agreeing to loan our objects and participate in these exhibitions, we not only share our amazing collections with museum visitors who may otherwise never visit Philadelphia, we also provide other scholars the opportunity to interpret our collections in the light of their own interests, giving voice to elements of the past and to human culture that might otherwise remain silent.

Operational Highlights

The Penn Museum is funded through a variety of sources, including subvention from the University of Pennsylvania, gifts and grants, investment income, admissions revenue, catering and rental fees, artifact loan fees, traveling exhibition fees, publication revenues, and educational program and special events revenues. In order to create an environment of fiscal responsibility, the Museum has not only undergone numerous operational changes in the past several years, restructuring many of its departments, and outsourcing certain business operations, but has also worked to create a much stronger focus on driving attendance and many aspects of its revenues.

During the past year, Museum staff have been working hard to drive attendance, catering, facility rentals, membership, annual giving, school group and adult group tours, traveling exhibitions and loans, and other revenues. Renovations of public spaces in the Museum’s West Wing, which were just completed during 2012–2013, have provided the Museum with the opportunity for more rental and catering income. Further supporting that opportunity were significant kitchen renovations done (in conjunction with Restaurant Associates) in the Museum’s Pepper Mill Café. From a systems standpoint, the Museum was able to consolidate three separate software systems into one much more robust point-of-sale, scheduling, volunteer, membership, and development system. The conversion will result in greatly improved customer service for members and donors visiting the Museum, improved online giving and ticket purchasing, more and better data collection, and streamlined back office operations. The Museum’s Public Relations and Visitor Services staff spent a few months of the fiscal year focusing on the final phases of marketing and staffing for the Museum’s second major special- ticketed exhibition, MAYA 2012: Lords of Time, but then very effectively turned their focus to the Museum’s 125th Anniversary celebration, as well as to the premiere Spring 2013 exhibition Unearthing a Masterpiece: A Roman Mosaic from Lod, Israel. To further its reach to the Philadelphia tourism market, the Museum also continued in its partnership with the Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation (GPTMC) to be part of its With Art Philadelphia™ campaign, an extensive two-year, $2 million advertising campaign designed to attract cultural tourists to Philadelphia, that is being extended for a third year.

This very timely support will allow the new Facilitator to work with faculty to create curriculum taking full advantage of the new Center for the Analysis of Archaeological Materials, the Collections Study Room, and the Online Collections Database, all of which aid faculty in allowing students hands-on experience with the Penn Museum’s extensive collections in their teaching.

The Penn Museum also thanks the Louis J. Kolb Foundation for deeply generous continued support of research by doctoral students from several academic departments at the University of Pennsylvania, and Deborah Marrow, Ph.D., CW70, GR78, and Michael J. McGuire, Ph.D., CE69, for lead support of assistance for undergraduates participating in overseas fieldwork, along with new, multi-year commitments from Lily Ferry and Peter C. Ferry, C79, and Cynthia J. Eiseman, Ph.D., GR79, and James Eiseman, Jr., L66.

Potter, WG88, and Joanne S. Ruckel, WG88, for gifts to the Museum Archives of extensive collections of silver gelatin prints of archaeological or anthropological interest from noted photographers. The Penn Museum also thanks Marcia Doelman and the late John P. Doelman III, C56, for a gift of a magnificent collection of Native American soapstone sculptures, several of which will be featured in the upcoming exhibition Native American Voices.

Annual Giving

The Penn Museum gratefully acknowledges all donors to the Annual Fund and in particular the following donors for their contributions of $125 or more—in many cases (noted with **) over and above their membership support. Given with no expectation of receiving benefits, these contributions were directed 100 percent to supporting the Museum’s general operations in the year in which they were given. Special thanks to donors who increased their Annual Fund gift to $125 in honor of the Penn Museum’s 125th anniversary in 2012.

88 SUPPORTING THE MISSION Annual Unrestricted Support

Loyal Giving | The 1887 ocietyS In 1887, Penn Provost William Pepper persuaded the University Trustees to construct a building to house artifacts from the Nippur excavations (now located in modern-day Iraq), thus establishing the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Loyal members and donors who have made gifts for ten or more consecutive years are an integral part of the history of the Penn Museum, and we recognize their loyalty through The 1887 Society. Sincere thanks to the following individual Museum members and donors for the constancy of their support throughout the last decade and, in many cases, far longer.

This year marked the 75th Anniversary of the Penn Museum’s Women’s Committee, a group that throughout its history has made an extraordinary contribution to the Museum, initiating and running countless programs, many of which are now formally operated by Museum staff, and extending a warm welcome to visitors. Its members remain among the Museum’s most active volunteers, and several programs remain directly under its sponsorship, including the Sunday afternoon “Meeters and Greeters” (in which members welcome visitors to the galleries), archaeological tours, and special events.

Young Friends of the Penn Museum The Young Friends of the Penn Museum is a group of Museum members aged 21 to 45 who work to raise awareness of the Museum among the region’s young professionals through a variety of educational and social programs, planned and executed in conjunction with the Museum’s Special Events and Membership Departments by a Young Friends Board.

During 2012–2013, the Young Friends planned and hosted a number of entertaining events. At “MAYA 2012: The Final Countdown” on December 21, 2012, Young Friends danced through the predicted end of the world in celebration of the Museum’s exhibition MAYA 2012: Lords of Time. In February 2013, for the Young Friends’ annual Valentine-themed event, guests listened to Dr. C. Brian Rose, James B. Pritchard Professor of Archaeology and Curator-in-Charge of the Mediterranean Section, speak about the explicit murals and mosaics of Pompeii at an event titled “50 Shades of Pompeii.” His talk was followed by a reception where they viewed the Museum’s exhibition Unearthing a Masterpiece: A Roman Mosaic from Lod, Israel.

102 PENN MUSEUM PEOPLE Volunteers Program

Penn Museum Volunteers Program

Since its beginnings in the1880s, the Museum has depended on volunteer help for many of its projects and much of its development. Today, more than 250 volunteers participate regularly, making important contributions to the public and research areas of the Museum. Some volunteers come in daily, and many have served for 20, 25, and 30 years! We are grateful to all of our volunteers for their generous contribution of time, talent, and energy to the Museum.

At the annual Volunteer Luncheon, held in the Museum’s Egypt (Mummies) Gallery on April 29, 2013, Volunteer and Staffing Coordinator Jane Nelson was pleased to recognize the following volunteers for special service.

Penn Museum Volunteer of the Year Award

Lawrence Rosen Larry joined the Museum as a volunteer in the Museum Archives in early 2000 after a distinguished career that began in Chemistry but ended with Sociology. He taught at Smith College and at Temple University, where he became an Associate Professor. His major research interests have been in juvenile delinquency, crime, drugs, and deviance. We are fortunate at the Museum to have volunteers like Larry who bring a wealth of background and expertise to their positions. Since his first day in the Archives, Volunteer of the Year Larry Rosen (center) with Williams Director Julian Siggers (left) and Larry has jumped right into the backlog of records processing and Senior Archivist Alessandro Pezzati (right). has become a renowned expert on the numerous individuals from the Museum’s history whose records are kept in the Archives. In addition to his many hours in the Archives, Larry also works at Penn’s Institute of Contemporary Art where he has given tours for many years and assists with admissions and special events.
