Professor of Classics Leslie Day is on sabbatical, teaching as the Whitehead Professor at the American School of Classical. She reports, "It is great fun, as I can offer a graduate seminar (something I have never been able to do before). Interestingly enough, Jeremy Ott ’02 is here as a regular member, and Suzanne Hofstra, who replaced us in 2000-2001 is the junior professor, so there are many Wabash connections."
In May, Professor Day presented a paper entitled "Household Assemblages in LM IIIC Crete: the Evidence from Karphi" at the Stega: the Archaeology of Houses and Households in Ancient Crete conference in Ierapetra, Crete. Day also presented "Karphi: Revisiting a City of Refuge in Dark Age Crete" at the Canadian Archaeological Institute in Athens. Also published this year was her response to a paper presented in a conference in Greece in 2003 in a book called Ariadne's Threads: Connections between Crete and the Greek Mainland in the Post Palatial Period (Late Minoan IIIA2 to Sub-Minoan).
Kavousi I: The Kavousi-Thriphti Survey, by Donald Haggis and edited by Professor Day and Geraldine Gesell, was published in December.
