MITHRACON V:
THE FIFTH NEW ENGLAND CONFERENCE ON
MITHRAISM IN NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT, USA
This is an informal research convention
concentrating on early mythology and religion,
especially Mithraism and other cults of the Roman
Empire. It is held in New Haven, CT, the home of Yale
University. We plan to spend most of Saturday in
Yale's Sterling Memorial Library doing whatever
research your heart desires. After dinner (the usual
pilgrimage to the New Deal Steak House), there will be
informal presentations (a Carousel slide projector,
projection screen, and an overhead projector will be
available), as well as some darn good discussions.
Sunday: visit the Dur Europa mithraeum (Yale Art
Gallery; that opens at noon). The hotel is within
walking distance of the library and gallery. A Staples
(cheap Xeroxing!) and a Barnes & Noble bookstore are
also close by. We can also plan used book shopping
expeditions for Sunday; there are some good dealers in
the area.
Dates: Friday, April 5 - Sunday, April 7, 2002.
Hotel: the Holiday Inn at Yale (203) 777-6221. Mention
MithraCon V for the con rates.
Rooms: $84 + tax (12% includes
city/state/etc. taxes ) (2 dbl beds or 1 king);
rollaway $10 extra.
Free courtesy van from public
transportation (arrange that when you reserve
your room); including from Tweed-New
Haven airport. Free parking at hotel.
Please reserve your room early, as the
hotel fills up fast and we only have a smallish
block reserved (10 rooms). Rooms
*must* be reserved by March 21 to get con
rates; the price goes way up after
that. More rooms can be added if we fill
the block early and if the hotel still has
space.
Con registration: $20 to February 1, $25 to March 1,
$30 to March 15, and $35 thereafter. Send reservations
(and make checks out) to:
Jane T. Sibley, P.O. Box 123,
Haddam, CT 06438. If you have questions,
Email me at
<A HREF="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Mithraeum/post?protectID=045212066009093153184097203219006239018048166189043">jrsibley@snet.net</A> -- I'm the entire concom.
Dealers: there is no dealers' room per se, but you can
bring items to our function room. Since
you'll probably want to hit the library during the day
instead of sitting there hoping for a customer, folks
can see what you've got during the evening sessions.
We'll hopefully have Cassius with his antiquities,
Hannah with prints of her artwork, me with spice
blends, catnip, etc. As usual, there is no charge for
dealers to set up.
Directions to the site: From I-95, take exit 47
(Downtown New Haven). From I-91 S, take exit 1
(Downtown New Haven). Proceed to the 2nd exit off the
connector, and continue to the 2nd light. Take a right
onto York Street. You will pass the traffic light at
Crown St., then the one at Chapel St. Turn left on
Broadway (Au Bon Pain is on the far left corner.
Broadway becomes Whalley Ave. after 2 blocks (just at
the end of the parking lot on the left); the hotel is
on the left.

[novaroma] NOVA BRITANNIA EVENT - Sept 7th and 8th 2002 |

Salvete,
Scheduling has begun for a Nova Britannia Provincia event the weekend of
September 7th and 8th in Wells, Maine.
Wells is in Southern Maine, right on the New Hampshire border. (About an hour
and a half from Boston by highway. There is an Amtrak stop from Boston to
Wells also, and we can make arrangements to pick up anyone arriving by
train.)
The event will be a "Roman Market Day", where Roman shopping, period food,
and historical demonstrations and events will be available.
To date we have a hall reserved that has full indoor bathroom and kitchen
facilities, as well as outdoor space. A 'quorum' of vendors and presentations
are already scheduled, including LaWren's Nest, vendors of Roman clothing,
armor, weapons, jewelry, etc. Now it's time to start 'filling up' the event!
:)
This "Roman Market Day" will be open and advertised to the public. We would
be *delighted* to have as many Nova Romans attending as possible as well of
course!!
This event should have many fun things to offer, including:
* Great opportunities to buy Roman kit or accessories of almost any type.
*An opportunity to eat (and/or be drafted to help make) Roman period food.
*A chance to socialize with other Nova Romans! :)
* A chance to sell any Roman themed items you may have, new or secondhand.
Table space is free.
* A chance to attend (or put on!) Roman themed displays or presentations.
There are many possibilities for this event that we're still trying to
arrange. It would be great to get a couple of military reenactors with kit
attending, (hint, hint!) we're also working on having a bit of historical
Roman music available, and (hopefully!!) a Religio Romana ritual in the
evening for those interested after the crowds go home. :)
We're working on offering as much as possible, so if you have anything to
sell, any sort of historical stuff to display, would like to run a
presentation of some sort, or would just like to help fill out the crowd by
showing up... please contact: cassius@novaroma.org
Valete,
Marcus Cassius Julianus
