  "description": "About the talk: Derek Kennet will look at the fascinating question of Roman trade in the Indian Ocean and Roman contact with India. It is one of the least well-known aspects of the Roman period that there was a strong presence in the western Indian Ocean, with Roman coins and amphorae turning up in the Red Sea, the Gulf and in India itself.\n\nAbout the speaker: Professor Derek Kennet is the Howard E. Hallengren Professor in Arabian Peninsula and Gulf States Archaeology at the University of Chicago. He is an archaeologist who works on the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding regions. Dr. Kennet approaches the peninsula from a number of different perspectives, such as: longue durée regional archaeology; the archaeology of the Late Antique period, the rise of Islam, and the Islamic periods; human economic strategies in semi- to hyper-arid environments; and interaction between the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding regions/empires/economies, including the Sasanians.\n\nEvent is free and open to the campus and community. Seating is limited. Doors open at 6:30 PM. Parking is generally aviailable at Euclid Auto park and Limelight Hotel.\n\nPresented by the CU Museum and the Department of Classics.",
