Join us for Remixing Catalhoyuk Day, a public program sponsored by the Berkeley Archaeologists at Catalhoyuk and the OKAPI program. Visit OKAPI Island in Second Life (using slurl provided above) and explore the past and present of Catalhoyuk,  a 9000-year-old village located in present-day Turkey. OKAPI Island features virtual reconstructions of excavation areas and multimedia exhibits of research data. The Island was constructed by a team of undegraduate research apprentices during the Spring and Fall 2007 semester. The Remixing Catalhoyuk program includes lectures, guided tours, games, and much more. Mark your calendars!
