Stay Focused!

The May/June 2005 issue was such a disappointment. Why waste pages in the magazine by running modern folk art (“Sailing with Odysseus,” Past Perfect)?

If I wanted art-movement articles I would purchase an art magazine. Let’s keep the focus of Archaeology Odyssey on archaeology.

Keep Doing What You’re Doing!

The May/June 2005 issue surpasses all previous issues. The two articles on Catalhoyuk (Michael Balter, “Discovering Catalhoyuk,” and Shahina Farid, “Excavating Catalhoyuk”) are fascinating, and the photos make me want to visit the site.

I also found the Romare Bearden paintings (“Sailing with Odysseus”) beautiful and intriguing, especially in connection to Homer.
