THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF ITALY: THE STATE OF THE FIELD 2011
MARCH 18-19, 2011
A symposium hosted by the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology & the Ancient World, Brown University
The Joukowsky Institute will host a weekend symposium in March 2011 whose aim it is to discuss the current state of the archaeology of peninsular Italy in the twenty-first century, with an emphasis on the North American academy. With an interest not only in tracking the trends and methodologies in use in the archaeological investigation of this very important piece of the Mediterranean, the symposium also seeks to examine the place of peninsular Italian archaeology with respect to other geographical sub-fields of Mediterranean archaeology. Perhaps most importantly, the symposium will discuss not only the current state of the field, but also explore possible future directions, methodologies, and techniques to be employed.
The symposium will feature three sessions, one dealing with the current state of research, another future directions in research, and a third that will serve as forum for graduate students to discuss their own research and network with graduate colleagues and faculty.
Keynote Speaker:
"Italian Archaeology 2011: Where Is It and Where Is It Going?" -- John Robb (Reader in European Prehistory, University of Cambridge)
