Located in Amman, Jordan ACOR promotes the study of the MENA region, with an emphasis on the archaeology of Jordan. The center is a member of the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR) and the Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=:: American Center of Oriental Research :: )〕 == History == ACOR was created in 1968 as "The American Research Center in Amman" as a permanent research center for Americans working or studying in the Arab World. It was first directed by Rudolph H. Dornemann who was followed by Murray B. Nicol. It became "The American Center of Oriental Research" in 1970. One of ACOR's first projects was excavating a Byzantine church in Swafiyeh, Amman, by director and annual professor Bastiaan Van Elderen in partnership with Jordan's Department of Antiquities and serving as a training course for students attending the University of Jordan. From June 7–13, 1970, Van Elderen and various residents barricaded themselves in the ACOR residence during fighting between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Jordanian army. Murray Nicol was appointed new director in 1970 but was prevented from serving due to the second phase of the war in Jordan so Siegfried H. Horn was appointed at the urging of the U.S. Embassy in Amman, followed by Henry O. Thompson. In 1975 George Mendenhall was director and he was followed by James A. Sauer from 1976-1981. In 1976 the building was remodeled, adding hostel accommodations for eight people and a 1,800 book library. In 1980 ACOR began partnering with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and was awarded a contract to write a five-yer plan for archeological development. In 1982 David McCreery became director and ACOR began granting fellowships. ACOR moved to a purpose-built building in 1986, with partial funding from USAID's office of American Schools and Hospitals Abroad with a ribbon cutting ceremony by H.R.H. Prince Mohammed Bin Talal. In 1988 Bert de Vries took over as director and he was succeeded by Pierre Bikai from 1991 to 2006.〔 In 2006, Barbara A. Porter took over as ACOR director. Current longterm staff includes cook Mohammed Adawi, born around in the Palestinian village of Zakariyya, who has served as a cook for the duration of ACOR's existence and Librarian Carmen (Humi) Ayoubi who has managed the library since 1988. As a member of ASOR, it has a strict policy of non-involvement in politics and follows their code of archaeological ethics.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「American Center of Oriental Research」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
