Wiener Lab Presents Archaeology Under the Microscope
April 6, 2010
The Wiener Laboratory hosted a three-hour workshop on March 29th that has been the most well-attended and successful one to-date. Around 50 participants attended the workshop while Wiener Lab researchers Sherry Fox, Maria Liston, Vicky Elefanti, Sireen El Zaatari, Tatiana Theodoropoulou, Rozalia Christidou and Eleni Nodarou showed off their work. School staff Jack Davis, Margie Miles, Pantelis Panos, Giannis Valourdos, and Denver Graninger were among those present along with a number of students including Emily Egan, Chris Cloke, Christina Trego, Ben Sullivan, Kristen Baxter, Johanna Best, Dominic Galante, Karen Laurence, and Kelcy Sagstetter. Members from the Ephorate of Paleoanthropology and Speleology of Southern Greece and Harokopio University also participated, as did University of Athens professors Yiannis Papadatos, who helped advertise the event. Rounding out the attendees were Georgia Kourtessi-Philippaki, who attended the workshop with students and members of the German Institute at Athens, and members of the American Foundation for Bulgaria. The final hour of the workshop was a flint knapping demonstration led by Nick Thompson.
