Apologies for cross posting

 

The first submission deadline for the AIA's 113th Annual Meeting, to be held in Philadelphia, PA, January 5-8, 2012, is rapidly approaching. The AIA invites archaeologists and scholars from related fields to submit a session or paper for consideration for inclusion in the Academic Program.

 

Deadlines for Submissions

The schedule for submission of sessions and papers has two deadlines. The first deadline is in March for all colloquia (including joint AIA/APA sessions), workshops, and any open-session presenters who require an early decision. This will allow all accepted presenters adequate time to apply for funding and for any non-U.S. Resident to apply for a visa. The second deadline is in August and is for all other open session paper and poster submissions and resubmission of provisionally accepted colloquia. We have also implemented a two-week grace period for both deadlines. Submissions will still be accepted for two weeks following each deadline but with an administrative fee of $25. The two deadlines are:

 

Sunday, March 13, 2011 and Sunday, March 27 (with $25 fee)

This deadline is applicable to all workshops and colloquia including joint AIA/APA colloquia, and any open-session submissions needing an early decision to acquire a visa or obtain funding.

 

Sunday, August 7, 2011 and Sunday, August 21 (with $25 fee)

This deadline is applicable for all other workshops, open session paper and posters submissions, and any provisionally accepted colloquia that are resubmitting.

 

The submission system will be open through August 21, 2011. If you expect to be in the field without internet access you may submit your abstracts early, but you will not be notified of the PAMC’s decision until September 16, 2011.

 

The full Call for Papers and submission instructions are available on the AIA website (www.archaeological.org/annualmeeting). Please be sure to review these instructions prior to submitting your abstract or session. All submissions must be made by means of online submission via the AIA website. All submissions, of course, must pass the PAMC's vetting process to be put onto the program. As with past meetings, all submissions must be made electronically. The online submission forms and supporting documents are available on the AIA website.
