Subject: Food and Drink in Archaeology Conference 2010, Exeter
Dear Colleagues,
Please find below details of the 2010 Food in Archaeology Conference. We
still have spaces for both presented papers and posters. I would be
grateful if you could forward this on to any of your postgrads who might be
interested.
Regards, Alan.
Food and Drink in Archaeology, University of Exeter, 22nd to 24th April 2010
The subject of food and drink is a topic that has long been central to
archaeology, encompassing as it does studies related to material culture,
ideology, economics, utilisation of biological resources (plant and
animals), nutrition and its effect on the population, and the environment
within which this occurred.
The study of food and drink in all its guises has necessitated a diversity
of approaches, from more traditional techniques to newer methods that
employ experimentation and biomolecular research. As with the previous
conferences in this series, this conference aims to unite researchers from
the various fields that link this common theme, enabling a more holistic
view and understanding of the topic.
We welcome papers and posters from all areas of food and drink-related
subjects. Please submit abstracts and titles for papers and posters to
Landon Karr ([log in to unmask]), Pip Stone ([log in to unmask]) or Wendy
Howard ([log in to unmask]).
Information on booking and registration can be obtained from the web at:
