10月3日（本週五）——《香港考古四十年》秦維廉主講
日期：2025年10月3日（星期五）
時間：晚上7時正
地點：香港歷史博物館地下演講廳
考古學家秦維廉將親述香港現代考古學關鍵成形期的開拓歷程。1971年他在南丫島深灣發現的遺址，開創了跨學科考古研究的新範式。這座因深厚地層堆積而彌足珍貴的遺址，恰成為構建香港史前年代學的關鍵基石。講座還將深入剖析其主持挖掘的多個重要遺址，包括赤鱲角、南丫島沙埔村及后海灣湧浪遺址，更將揭示連接漢代與宋代之間斷層七百年的歷史缺環。
秦維廉自1970年定居香港，曾擔任香港考古學會主席（1985-1996）及香港大學亞洲研究中心榮譽研究員（1986-2012）。著有《香港古石刻》《香港考古志》（香港大學出版社2009年）等多部遺址專著及研究論述。
本次講座無需預約登記，139個座位將以先到先得方式安排。演講廳將於晚上6時45分開放入場，講座準時於7時開始。

Hong Kong Anthropological Society Talk Fri 3 Oct - "40 Years of Archaeology in Hong Kong" by William Meacham
Date: 3rd Oct 2025 (this Friday)
Time: 7pm
Venue: G/F Lecture Hall at the Hong Kong Museum of History
Archaeologist William Meacham will describe his involvement in the important formative period of modern archaeology in Hong Kong. His discovery of the site at Sham Wan on Lamma in 1971 provided the impetus to a multi-disciplinary approach. As luck would have it, due to its deep stratigraphy, the site turned out to be most important in constructing a prehistoric chronology for the territory. Several other major sites that he excavated will be discussed, including Chek Lap Kok, Sha Po Tsuen on Lamma, and Yung Long at Deep Bay. His talk will also describe how the “missing link” of 700 years in local history between the Han and Sung eras was revealed.
William Meacham has lived in Hong Kong since 1970, serving as Chairman of the Hong Kong Archaeological Society (1985-96) and Hon. Research Fellow at the Centre of Asian Studies, HKU (1986-2012). Among his publications are several site monographs, Rock Carvings in Hong Kong and The Archaeology of Hong Kong (HKU Press, 2009).
There is no need to register or RSVP, as seats for the talk are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The seating capacity of the lecture hall is 139. The door opens at 6:45PM. The talk will start on time at 7PM.
