CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR SESSIONS

EVENT: Australasian Archaeometry Conference 2005
VENUE: Department of Archaeology and Natural History, Coombs Building,
Australian National University, Canberra, Australia
DATE: December 12th to 15th 2005
DEADLINE FOR SESSION/WORKSHOP PROPOSALS: February 11th 2005
FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS: End February 2005

The 2005 Australasian Archaeometry Conference will be held at the ANU,
Canberra, hosted by the Department of Archaeology and Natural History,
RSPAS, and the Centre for Archaeological Research. The organising committee
invite sessions covering all aspects of scientific applications
(biological, physical and chemical sciences) in archaeology. Session
proposals (title and max. 200 word abstract) are now being considered and
should reach the committee by February 11th 2005. Proposals for technical
workshops are also being sought and should include details of
technical/space requirements. The organising committee will consider
theoretical and interpretative sessions as well as those discussing
archaeometrical techniques. Sessions and papers usually focus on
Australasia and the broader Asia-Pacific region, but sessions/papers by
researchers working in other geographical areas will also be considered,
especially if they have some relevance to work within the region (e.g. help
to build up technical competency etc).

Details will be regularly posted on the conference website:
