patrick mcgovern has travelled to egypt and other countries around the world to re-create ancient beer.

february 23, 2018 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s carney matheson will participate in a thirst-quenching research and innovation week discussion about ancient beer at the prince arthur waterfront hotel on saturday, march 3 at 7 pm.

the talk, called ancient brews rediscovered and re-created, will be hosted by patrick mcgovern, a chemist with the university of pennsylvania museum who has travelled around the world to re-create ancient ale.

 mcgovern wrote a book with the same name as the talk. he will discuss ancient beers and the evolution of brewing. the sleeping giant brewery will provide samples of ancient beers brewed following recipes determined through ancient history, archaeology and chemistry.

“there will be two beers to sample,” said matheson, an anthropology professor at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 . “one is from the etruscans, a pre-roman people in italy. their golden days were around 800 bc and they collapsed in the third century bc with the roman-etruscan wars. the second is from the norse – this is a northern european beer. the earliest evidence for a brew in scandinavia is 3,500 bc, however scandinavian alcoholic drinks were made from local ingredients and thus varied enormously.”

the exact date for the second ale is difficult to ascertain, matheson said. “they used this style of drink right up until the 14^th century ad.”

the paleo-brews, which may include wild fruits, honey, cereals, and botanicals, have not been sampled yet. “we don’t know what the beers will taste like,” he said. “hopefully good.”

mcgovern performs the same type of research as matheson – known as ancient residue analysis.

“i first met dr. mcgovern in 1995 when i was doing residue analysis in honduras on mayan sacrificial vessels. he provided advice on residue analysis and archaeological chemistry. dr. mcgovern has focused his research on ancient brewed beverages from all over the world and become renowned for his research.”

mcgovern will also visit 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 to examine the research on residue analysis which matheson and his 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are becoming known for across canada. “his advice will be valuable to residue research at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ,” matheson said. “in addition some of dr. mcgovern's techniques will be discussed and added to the 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 research approach.” 

mcgovern’s book, ancient brews rediscovered and re-created, which offers instructions on brewing ancient beer, will be for sale and he will sign copies.

tickets are $15 – available at the sleeping giant brewery, the prince arthur waterfront hotel, the department of anthropology at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 , and remaining tickets will be offered at the anthropology booth at the intercity shopping centre during research and innovation week on saturday, march 3. the talk will be in the prince arthur hotel’s provincial room from 7 until 10 pm on saturday, march 3.

march 1, 2017 – thunder bay, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 has a well-established relationship of research projects and partnerships with aboriginal communities, so is the time ripe to set up a dedicated indigenous research institute?

that is the focus of a discussion taking place march 8 during research and innovation week.

for dr. peggy smith, the answer is an unequivocal yes.

“we have numerous researchers at lakehead who are working with indigenous communities, so a research centre would be a place where people could share experiences and find people to work with. it would promote interdisciplinarity, getting researchers from different fields to work together to serve the needs of indigenous communities,” says smith, interim vice-provost (aboriginal initiatives) at lakehead.

 lakehead, situated in the heart of indigenous territories, boasts almost one-in-five 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 of aboriginal ancestry. its strategic research plan commits to research that is relevant to first nation, metis and inuit peoples. to date, there are more than 30 such projects, focussing on community needs ranging from the arts to health, education, science, land management and culture.

“there’s a rich and long history at lakehead of faculty members doing research with indigenous communities,” smith says, adding this work advances knowledge about indigenous issues and helps improve conditions in these communities.

with such a track record, the next step would be an actual centre to serve the needs of faculty, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and the community at large.

“we’re still very much talking about the concept, how we would do it and what it would do,” smith explains.

the roundtable discussion features speakers who have experience in cross-cultural learning and what is needed to set up an indigenous-focused research institute.

they are:

• dr. eldon yellowhorn of simon fraser university teaches first nations studies and archaeology. he has participated in research projects on the northern plains, as well as blackfoot mythology and folklore. 
• dr. derek jennings of the university of minnesota-duluth is community outreach director at the research for indigenous community health center. he works with indigenous communities on chronic health issues, such as obesity.
• dr. michelle johnson-jennings, also of the university of minnesota-duluth, is founding director of the research for indigenous community health center. her specialty is cultural health beliefs and behavioural interventions regarding addiction.

johnson-jennings believes a dedicated indigenous research institute demonstrates academic commitment to indigenous communities and recognizes and values indigenous knowledge.

“indigenous community voices that are often marginalized within non-native institutes can have a space to be heard and elevated within an indigenous centre,” johnson-jennings says.

“in doing so, true partnership between academics and tribes can be formed, resources and support given for both academics and tribes to engage meaningfully, and a path forged for future work,” she says.

such a facility, to be named the gichi kendaasiwin centre (meaning “higher knowledge” in ojibwe), will not only house aboriginal programs and services, but will also engage aboriginal learners in all disciplines and will be a gathering place for the exchange of ideas from the region, across canada and around the world.

“we’re still very much in the conceptual stage,” smith says. “this is a key discussion we’re having and it’ll take us a good way along” the path to realizing the goal of having an indigenous research institute.

the roundtable discussion called should 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 establish an indigenous research institute? is set for wednesday, march 8, from 2-4 p.m., at the 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 faculty lounge (uc 1029g).
