Princeton Professor of Anthropology Alan Mann is coming to visit the Bay Area and will be the guest speaker at a dinner talk to be held in the East Bay (the location of dinner will be determined by the geographic distribution of those interested in attending).

Professor Mann is a physical anthropologist with a primary interest in the fossil evidence for human evolution. His current research focuses on the evolution of the Neanderthals and their relationships to modern peoples. A particular interest of his is the origin of language and its importance in the emergence of the quality of “humanness”.

He has done field work in South and East Africa, Israel, Iran, Afghanistan, Croatia, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany and now works primarily in the southwest of France. He is co-director of the excavation of a Middle Paleolithic site in the Charente Department of southwest France where Princeton students excavated last summer as part of the university's summer course on modern human origins. He has been a consultant for the National Geographic Society and is the Anthropology consultant for the World Book Encyclopedia. He has served as a consulting forensic anthropologist to many cities in the northeast and he says that discovering clues that helped to free an innocent young man from imprisonment was the best thing he has ever done.

Dr. Mann is currently co-director of a project sponsored by the National Science Foundation to develop an exhibit on the implications of human evolution to be shown first at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and later to travel to other science museums around the country. This subject is the topic Dr. Mann will introduce at the Alumni Association of Naples in February.

Dr. Mann received his Ph.D. from the University of California at Berkeley and at Princeton teaches courses on human evolution, human adaptation, biological anthropology and the concept of race.

About Queen Noor:

Queen Noor, born Lisa Najeeb Halaby, earned a BA degree in architecture and urban planning at Princeton, where she was a member of the first co-educational class.

Since her marriage to King Hussein in 1978, Queen Noor has worked to promote international understanding of Middle Eastern politics, Arab-Western relations and other global issues. In Jordan and around the world, she has been an active force behind initiatives in the areas of disarmament and peace, education, women and children's welfare, community development, human rights, environment and architectural conservation, culture, and public architecture and planning.

Mike Cohen '02 and Dan Sullivan '63 will guide us on a zigzag route along the original shoreline of Yerba Buena Cove (now the center of the SF financial district), before climbing up the steep streets of Telegraph Hill to Coit Tower. Depending on the time and group interest, we might go up the Tower, or we'll just enjoy the view from the plaza at the base. We will then use the historic Filbert Stairway to descend the very steep east side of Telegraph Hill, keeping a lookout for the cherry-headed conures that are featured in the current film of "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill." Back on flat ground, we will cross through Levi's Plaza to the Embarcadero, and then go along San Francisco's current shoreline to the open marketplace in the Ferry Building. Bring snacks for the walk, but leave room to try the temptations in the food shops at the Ferry Building. We should get there in time for a late lunch.

Princeton friends and children are welcome. Strollers are feasible if you don't mind pushing them up steep streets and carrying them on stairways. RSVP is helpful, but not required.

Lets meet at 11 a.m. by the Mechanics Monument at the intersection of Market, Battery, and Bush Streets in San Francisco. This small plaza is between the Embarcadero and Montgomery Street BART stations.

Enjoy a private tour of The Kingdom of Siam: The Art of Central Thailand at its only West Coast venue - the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco. This exhibition is the first ever to explore one of Thailand's golden eras. Beginning in the mid-14th century, kings based in Ayutthaya (now a UNESCO World Heritage site in central Thailand) ruled over a cosmopolitan, prosperous and powerful kingdom for more than 400 years. An invation by neigboring Burma in the late 18th century devastated the city; this eventually led to the rise of a new Siamese dynasty with its capital at Bangkok.

The Kingdom of Siam features 89 of the finest surviving works from the Ayutthaya period. Highlights include gold royal jewelry and ceremonial objects discovered in a temple crypt, enormous stone and bronze Buddha images, sculptures of Hindu deities, wood carvings, temple furnishings, colorful miniature paintings, and textiles.

Now more than ever it is important to appreciate the history and culture of the people of Thailand. We hope that you will join us for our tour. Spots are limited so RSVP soon!
