Archeology, a Mutating Discipline

Contexte

Since 2010, ArkeoTopia [1] has participated in the annual congress of the European Association of Archeologists [2]. Following the last meeting, held from September 4 to 8, 2013 in Pilsen (Czech Republic), we wanted to share with you - French professionals, students and volunteers who could not attend the conference - the potential benefits of an event gathering professionals, students and volunteers in archeology/art history not only from all over Europe but also from all around the world (Australia, United-States, China, Japan, Russia).

Meetings around European Archeology (MEA) are also an occasion to share discoveries and tips to widen one’s network and an opportunity to view the current state of research in the fields of archeology and art history outside of France, while taking into account its impact in France for the foreseeable future.

Meetings around European Archeology are free upon registration. Please notify us of your attendance in order for us to prepare the room and don’t hesitate to let us know if you would like to participate by sharing information related to the event’s program.
