Horn Lectureship Series

"Beyond the Sea Peoples: Rethinking the 1200 BCE Collapse"

The Institute of Archaeology & Siegfried H. Horn Museum warmly invites you to the next event in the Horn Lectureship Series on Monday, Nov. 10, 2025, at 7 p.m. in the Seminary chapel.

We are honored to welcome Eva Katarina Glazer, who will present: "Beyond the Sea Peoples: Rethinking the 1200 BCE Collapse." Around 1200 BCE, the great powers of the ancient Near East—Hittites, Mycenaeans, Egyptians and Canaanite city-states—experienced what has long been called a “catastrophic collapse.” But was it truly the end of civilizations or the beginning of something new?

Glazer will explore fascinating evidence of trade networks, migrations and cultural resilience, reconsidering whether the story of the Sea Peoples is myth, history or something in between. This event is free and open to the public, and Andrews undergraduate cocurricular credit will be offered.

We look forward to seeing you there!
