Trent Bates/UVU Review UVU associate professor participates in archaeological find College Marketing • Haagen Klaus, a new faculty member in the UVU Behavioral Science department, recently took part in an important archaeological find in northern Peru: an ancient tomb belonging to the Moche civilization. The tomb was discovered by Steve Bourgel, an associate professor at the University of Texas at Austin. Bourget invited Klaus to participate in the bioarchaeological 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 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 marks that would indicate they were human sacrifices, a common practice 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 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 the UVU Behavioral Science department. u As the find's bioarchaeologist. he will not only contribute greatly to understanding the physical anthropology of the nobility of the area, but also to the understanding of this brilliant and important civilization." Klaus will begin teaching classes at UVU in the fall of 2008, including introduction to physical anthropology and introduction to world prehistory- He is from Long Island, N.Y.. and holds a master's degree in anthropology from Southern Illinois University and a Ph.D. The course was also designed with safety in mind. "The good thing about the course is that you're always throwing to a hole that you can see. You'll never have to throw a blind throw which is dangerous," said Earls. The sport is played like golf: the person with the lowest score wins. The goal is to have the least amount of throws from each marked Before this plan went into effect, a survey was given to employees of the slate. The survey indicated that the plan is generally approved of by those it is most directly affecting. The plan's first official evaluation will occur in September of 2009. at which time it will be decided whether of not to continue with the initiative. in anthropology from Ohio State University. In addition to teaching, Klaus also runs the Lambayeque Biohistory Project, a project focused on discovering the impact and influences'of societies on human biology through the examination of human skeletal remains in the Lambayeque region of Peru. The Lambayeque Biohistory Project began in 2003 and will be completed by 2025. UVU has included an anthropology emphasis in the behavioral science department since 2004. from DONATION • A1 from DISC' A2 from WORKWEEK • A1 hopes of being able to lower fuel costs and save energy, among other things.

It is the moststudied 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. 350-40Q. It contains one principal figure who is the focal point of the tomb and 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 none of the knife tee pad to the baskets. Any variety of flying disc can be used, but disc golf Frisbees give more control to the player because of their different size and weight. Disc golf Frisbees can be rented from the UVU Outdoor Recreation Center. Earls is planning on having Frisbee golf leagues and tournaments in the fall for students and the community. He also plans to expand the course and to sell its naming rights. The course is located around the ponds found between the Brent Brown Ballpark and the west side of campus and is open and free to the public. To rent disc golf Frisbees, call (801) 863-7052. turing facilities have about $80 million in annual revenues," said Diana Hunter in a press release. Hunter is the assistant dean for the UVU School of Continuing Education. "This is their first donation to UVU. It's a brand-new product and very nice. We are excited to have the chariot to get around campus." from HIRAOKA' A1 the situation is growing worse for four reasons: the number of nations with nuclear weapons have increased; research continues to create small and lethal nuclear weapons; the rise of nuclear testing has exposed more people to radiation; and the nuclear black market has proliferated. Hiraoka described a Hiroshima that is still feeling the effects of the bomb — many of its inhabitants suffer from the radiation after-effects, which are responsible for a multitude of health concerns. He feels complete disarmament is the only measure that can prevent this tragedy from happening again. Hiraoka said Hiroshima still disagrees with the United States' justification for dropping the bomb, but believes that nuclear disarmament is possible and that the United States will lead the abolition - and that when nuclear weapons are abolished. Hiroshima will be healed. Hiraoka served two terms as mayor of Hiroshima from 1991 to 1999. During his time as mayor, he was an activist for peace, a pursuit he continues in his retirement.
