UVU associate professor participates par-ticipates in archaeological find Haagen Klaus, a new faculty member in UVU's Behavioral Science Sci-ence Department, recently took part in an important archaeological archaeologi-cal find in northern Peru an ancient an-cient tomb belonging to the Moche civilization. The tomb was discovered by Steve Bourget, an associate professor pro-fessor at the University of Texas at Austin. Bourget invited Klaus to participate in the bioarchaeo-logical bioarchaeo-logical research connected with the find, studying the human skeletal remains found in the tomb in order to collect data that will shed light on the enigmatic Moche culture. "Health is produced by genetics and biological structures," said Klaus. "But human health is most fundamentally a product of social conditions and economics. Patterns Pat-terns in the teeth and bones will tell us about social constructions. Human remains are the most information-dense archaeological material of any kind." The Moche civilization was the dominant culture along the northern coast of Peru between A.D. 100 and A.D. 750. It is the most-studied pre-Inca culture in the Andes mountain range and is known for sophisticated artwork, large pyramids and creating the first Andean state. The tomb is estimated to be from A.D. 350400. It contains one principal figure who is the focal point of the tomb who may be a member of one of the civilization's royal families. In addition to the main figure, there are four other individuals who likely served as offerings, though they bear no knife marks indicating the human sacrifices that were common in the Moche civilization. In fact, at least two of those four sets of remains show evidence of having died years before the principle figure was buried, having been naturally natu-rally mummified in preparation for the burial to come. The tomb also contains specimens of early Moche art and gold, silver and copper working. "Klaus is an expert in forensic study of skeletal remains," said David Knowlton, an associate professor in UVU's Behavioral Science Department. "As the find's bioarchaeologist, he will not only contribute greatly to understanding the physical anthropology an-thropology of the nobility of the area, but also to the understanding understand-ing of this brilliant and important civilization." Klaus will begin teaching classes class-es at UVU fall 2008. UVU has included in-cluded an anthropology emphasis in the Behavioral Science Department Depart-ment since 2004. More parking for fairgrounds NORTH COUNTY STAFF The acquisition of land to the east of the Spanish Span-ish Fork Fairgrounds has provided more parking for Utah County fairgoers. The enlarged footprint of the fairgrounds will continue to provide parking for events at the venue. ven-ue. The new parking area is on the back side of the fairgrounds. The entrance is close to the Bishop's Bish-op's Storehouse on the slightly diagonal street. Utah County County Fair executive chair woman Carol Harmer said there will be ample . free parking for families who plan a day at the fair. Separate parking is set aside for vendors, horse show trailers, demolition derby trailers and County Fair staff. Traditional parking access from South Main Street will be closed during the Fair. Because the free parking lot is at the rear of the fairground it cannot be seen from the street. It's not hard to find the new parking area. Drivers just need to learn a new route. To get to the parking lot turn east off Main Street onto 300 South; turn South onto 200 East. Follow the signs a short distance southwest to the parking entrance. Military Army Pvt. Nathan C.
