Erin reflects on the reappearance of persons who went missing during the war in northern Uganda, and the violent fragments that bond them to one another, and to persons they have never before seen or met.&nbsp; In this talk, we take a pause from international investigations, trials, evidence and judgements to consider where traces lead us in the afterlives of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"november-23-2018-shannon-lecture-with-katherine-cook-there-is-no-net-neutrality-in-digital-archaeology\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>November 23, 2018 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/cu_event\/shannon-lecture-with-katherine-cook-there-is-no-net-neutrality-in-digital-archaeology\/\">Shannon Lecture with Katherine Cook, \u201cThere is no \u2018net neutrality\u2019 in digital archaeology\u201d<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The lecture will take place in room 2017 Dunton Tower (20th floor) starting at 1:00 p.m. followed by a reception at 2:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Lecture abstract<\/em>: Colonisation, at its core, is the extraction of resources from those without power. What then gets extracted in digital colonialism and what does this have to do with archaeology in Canada? Considering the critiques, questions, and fallout regarding digital corporations, capitalism, and politics over the course of the past year, we are ever more acutely aware of the much darker underbelly of the digital world. Yet we still act as if digital technology is \u2018the answer!\u2019 to solving those \u2018Great Challenges\u2019 facing archaeology today, namely the lack of equity, inclusivity, access and the unwavering manifestations of (neo)colonialism. This discussion will consider the realities of digitally disrupting archaeology, the opportunities it presents but also the dangers it poses to argue that not all data, not all audiences, and not all archaeologists are treated equal in digital practice. Digital archaeology will not save us from bad archaeology, so we must decolonize the digital first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"november-23-2018-honouring-agnes-calliste-innovative-critical-race-and-intersectional-perspectives-in-canadian-sociology\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>November 23, 2018 &#8211; Honouring Agnes Calliste: Innovative Critical Race and Intersectional Perspectives in Canadian Sociology<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When: November 23, 2018 from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM<br>\nWhere: 270 Residence Commons<br>\nWho: Anyone, but space is limited.

For the first time, tens of thousands of ordinary people, if not more, participated in a ritual of violence and degradation directed against their Jewish neighbors. In more than a thousand communities, synagogues were burned down, destroyed, and desecrated. Historians know a great deal about the event. They know less about how this event became part of collective memory in the postwar years. Using method from digital humanities, this talk will address the question of when and how Germans in the Federal Republic thought about and memorialized a central event that had shown Nazi Germany to be a persecuting society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"november-30-2018-shannon-lecture-with-morag-m-kersel-the-pathways-of-pots-the-movement-of-early-bronze-age-vessels-from-the-dead-sea-plain-jordan\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>November 30, 2018 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/cu_event\/shannon-lecture-with-morag-m-kersel-the-pathways-of-pots-the-movement-of-early-bronze-age-vessels-from-the-dead-sea-plain-jordan\/\">Shannon Lecture with Morag M.

How do Early Bronze Age (3600\u20132000 BCE) pots from Jordan end up in Canadian institutions \u2013 and why does it matter? These particular pots are from sites along the Dead Sea Plain in Jordan, which have been identified as the \u201cCities of the Plain\u201d mentioned in Genesis. One of the sites, Bab adh-Dhra\u2019 is thought to be, by some, the original city of sin \u2013 biblical Sodom. \u201cWho doesn\u2019t want a pot from the city of sin?\u201d declared one interviewee when I asked why they were purchasing (legally) what most would consider a fairly unattractive, non-descript pot. Over 15 years of investigation have led to interesting insights related to why individuals and institutions want to own artifacts from the Holy Land?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tracing how pots move (both legally and illegally) involves archaeological survey, aerial investigations using unpiloted aerial vehicles, archival research, and ethnographic interviews in order to understand better the competing claims for these archaeological objects and the often deleterious effects of demand on the landscape. In this talk, I will look at how artifacts go from the mound to the market to the mantelpiece or museum vitrine and why this matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"december-11-2018-book-launch-roots-of-entanglement\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>December 11, 2018 \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bac-lac.gc.ca\/eng\/about-us\/events\/Pages\/2018\/book-launch-roots-entanglement.aspx\">Book Launch: Roots of Entanglement<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Please join Kerry Abel at a reception at Library and Archives Canada on December 11 to honour historian J.R.
