News from Old Uruk
**This is an at home lecture, please excuse the audio and video quality.
Margaret van Ess joins us for a lecture exploring recent fieldwork at the legendary site of Uruk in southern Iraq, the ancient city memorialized in the epic of Gilgamesh as the home of the mythological king. Van Ess examines evidence of monumental construction projects including the city walls and canals, theorizing how ecological factors might have played a role in the construction and development of this ancient center of urbanization.
