Hello there,

We have set up a photo-blog in order to post photos and mini-essays from our archaeological ethnography project in the Greek island of Poros in Greece.

The address is: http://kalaureiainthepresent.org/

It is a collaboration between Aris Anagnostopoulos, Yannis Hamilakis (Uni of Southampton, UK), and Fotis Ifantidis, who has shot most of the photos there.

Archaeological ethnography is a new, hybrid discursive field combining the methods and sensibilities of critical archaeology and social anthropology. For more information, you can also visit our workshop blog at: http://porosworkshop.wordpress.com/

Our project is part of a large-scale archaeological excavation, called ‘Kalaureia Researh Program’: http://kalaureia.org/

I am currently doing ethnography at Poros, and hope to upload material and commentary every so often. All comments, views and opinions are more than welcome.

Hi,
I know that Professor Andrea Lauser from Göttingen has done some research on that topic (especially on crucified women)-she might be able to help you find more books. Her contact details can be found here

good luck,

I have amended and extended my paper: laughter as a displacement activity: the implications for humor theory. It can be found on the same page as before: see old message.

A theory of humor and laughter that critically examines all current theories
and unites their pertinent aspects into a new hypothesis.The
endorphin/laughter controversy is discussed and an explanation of laughter's
immunological effects is given.

"This is an original and well-developed argument that deserves attention and
serious consideration." Diana Mahony, Ph.D Professor of Psychology.
"I would suggest that you submit this paper to the journal HUMOR for
publication." John Morreall

Hello..

I've actually read about it on an article..dunno if it is useful to you..
here's the link http://www.travelnotes.org/Travel/easter.htm]]> http://www.antropologi.info/anthropology/forum/forum_entry.php?id=52 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 23:01:27 GMT Reply from Roberta, 13.06.2008, 21:39:

First of all thank you very much for ur advice.

Yeah I might try to work in a museum as a part time job (but as i said there are only very few in Belfast)..but I was concerned about the permanent job I'd get after the degree. That's why I would like to know what kind of opportunities I'd have. I totally agree with you tho, it's better to study something u're intrested in indeed.
I'll sure keep on having some researches and make my right decision.

Thank you very much

There are lots of opportunities (if you are flexible) and I would not bother thinking about it. It's more important that you study something that you are interested in. You'll never know what the situation will be like in five-six years' time when you'll have finished. It's always a good idea to do some part-time work during your studies, why not in a museum?]]> http://www.antropologi.info/anthropology/forum/forum_entry.php?id=50 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 10:27:45 GMT Post by Roberta, 12.06.2008, 23:17:

Hello,my name is Roberta and i'm an Italian student.
I've applied for Anthropology at uni in Belfast and i got an offer..
.. i love the subject, and i'd love to study it cos i'm in love with different cultures.
But what kind of jobs can u get after a degree in that subject? I was told it wouldn't be easy to find one.
Is there any risk to be a "jobless"?
I'd like to work in a museum or something like that but there are not so many museums in Belfast.
Can anyone give me any advice or information?

Hope to hear from you soon
Thank you very much
