 International conference on use-wear analysis

First announcement

Dear colleagues,

Taking into account the unquestionable success of the last scientific meetings on the development of use-wear studies in archaeology over the last two decades, we are pleased to announce that we are organizing an International conference on use-wear analysis. Since Verona (2005), “Prehistoric Technology, 40 Years Later: Functional Studies and the Russian Legacy", many projects and data have been developed. Thus, a new meeting will be the perfect setup to present ongoing projects. Subjects are open to all different use-wear approaches, such as theory and method, archaeological artifacts, and residue analysis. The meeting will take place between 10^th and 12^th October 2012 at the University of Algarve, Portugal. For all those interested researchers there is more information at www.usewear2012.com, the official meeting website.

 

Time table:

Second announcement and call for papers – 01.October.2011

Third announcement (accommodation, venue, etc.) - 01.January. 2012

 

Thank you!

Best regards
