Important step for EWU and Rantidi


Dr. Bazemore was invited to give a speech for the important cultural association of Kinyras, based in Paphos. The speech was about the wonderful and unique writing system of ancient Cyprus, of which Dr. Bazemore is the world expert. The speech was given in the Greek language. Dr. Bazemore is one of the few, if not the only, foreign archaeologist on the island who can lecture in the Greek language. The crowd was very appreciative of her efforts. The speech went off without a hitch bringing EWU front and center in Cyprus, and gaining the enthusiastic support of native Cypriotes.

Nationally Televised Speech


Dr. Georgia Bonny Bazemore consults her notes during the speech, given at the Cultural Center of the Bank of Cyprus. The entire team was a bit nervous when we saw television cameras being mounted in different parts of the room. We later found out that we made the national evening news on at least two news channels!! We are famous now!!! EWU continues to be front and center on the Cypriote archaeological scene. Go EWU!

TENSION MOUNTS!!


With less than two weeks left of Archaeology, Dr Georgia Bonny Bazemore is kicking butt and NOT taking names to finish her publication for this years Rantidi Forest Season!!

ATTENTION TO DETAIL!!


Abby Monta draws a figure for puplication. Remember to Stiple!

KEEPING THINGS ORGANIZED


Kari re-bags artifacts after pictures are taken of them. Attention to detail is key as some artifacts are smaller than the tip of your pinky finger. Lucky for her these are Pithos Rims.
