| The Female Burial in Royal Tomb II at Vergina: 2017-18 (884) | Arts, Culture and Humanities, Educational Support | Clemson University | Barbara Weitz Community Engagement Center (CEC), History | Knowledge and Resource Sharing | Workshop | None | Fall | 2017-18 | Fall | 2017-18 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 70 | History | The UNO History Department invites you to join presenter Elizabeth Carney, Ph.D., from Clemson University, as she discusses the ancient female warrior found in a royal tomb in Vergina, Greece. Forty years ago this November, Manolis Andronikos found three tombs at Vergina in Greece that he considered royal, one of which he believed to be that of Philip II, the great Macedonian king, general, and father of Alexander the Great. Almost from the moment of the discovery, others have disagreed with Andronikos. Yet Tomb II contained not only a male burial but also that of a woman. Military equipment made it clear that she had been buried as a warrior. Her burial resembles the male in a number of aspects, including a slightly smaller and simpler golden burial box with the same starburst pattern, as well as a distinctive Scythian bow-and-arrow case and an elaborately decorated gold cuirass. While the lecture plans to discuss the identity of both occupants, the intended focus is to discuss primarily the woman. That is, who she was and why she was buried as a warrior. |
