The Monastery of St Moses, Syria: The Pottery
Despite there being almost 1,400 years of occupation at Deir Mar Musa, strangely the overwhelming majority of the pottery found at the site can be assigned to the "Mamluk" period. The period of Mamluk rule in Greater Syria (1260-1516) generally reflects an archaeological horizon that
The Monastery of St Moses, Syria: The Frescoes
A report on Deir Mar Musa would not be complete without an account of the frescoes. Others have done most of the work studying these paintings, but my architectural study of the monastery buildings has certainly provided important informaton about the rationale for the last phase of frescoes (for
The Monastery of St Moses, Syria: The Cave Survey
The first field-walks took place in 2004, but recorded survey of the area began in 2005 with a rapid series of transects across the catchment of the valley. Some of the caves were clearly situated in locations which were now difficult to get to, and I rather suspected that if I did not have a
Nail Art: Then and Now
Women have grown, groomed and decorated their fingernails for over 5000 years – From the women of Ancient Egypt to the nail salon industry that flourished during the 80s and 90s, nail trends have had authority over beauty regimes across regions and eras. By the late 20th century manicured
Conservation Intern Spotlight: Emily Ricketts
As a ROM intern and a newcomer to Toronto, I spend a lot of time exploring the public spaces at the museum. One particular day, while visiting the Samuel European Galleries, I noticed a jarring new addition to a charming 18 th century English room. A bright blue ladder (with no trace of entrance
Minoan Goddess Kiosk
Why Minoan? What is the evidence that this is an antiquity from the Minoan Bronze Age? Why Modern? What is the evidence that this is a fake made in the early 20 th century? Why Here? How and why did the figurine arrive at the ROM? What Now? What are we working on now to resolve the
Conservation Intern Spotlight: Natasa Krsmanovic
As a web intern at the ROM, the last place you’d expect me to visit is the Conservation department—which is situated many floors above my office! You may be surprised by how necessary it is for such contrasting departments to establish a close working relationship. But it is an interconnected
Road Ecology in Presqu'ile Provincial Park
Recently, I visited Presqu'ile Provincial Park to get a better understanding of Road Ecology- a fairly new science in Canada. I met Sean Boyle- full disclosure- my son, to find out what his PhD project entailed in the park. First, I would like to say that it is quite a beautiful park with
The Monastery of St Moses, Syria: The Buildings
The monastery of Deir Mar Musa in its heyday included hermitages spread around the landscape, but as today, the focus of the complex would have been the buildings, especially the chapel, home to the important frescos. The archaeology of standing buildings requires looking at walls to see how they
