Emmet Seokheon Easton-Hong was born at 5:24PM (what a considerate young chap!) on January 4. He showed his interest for languages at an early age, accompanying his parents to the American Philological Association conference three days later. At this rate, he will soon be fluent in Hittite, Luwian and Phrygian and politely asking for bekos. For those of you who can’t attend our department tea on Friday, when Emmet will be officially introduced to admiring classics majors, here is a photo of the handsome lad. We are delighted for Yurie and Sean – congratulations!!!
Maybe he’ll decode Linear A or discover some ancient Mesopotamian site…
