Title & Content

Title:
‘… In with the New!’: The Future of Archaeological Research in Medieval Europe
Content:
This now traditional session is aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers whose interest focuses on Medieval Europe. They will have the opportunity to present their ongoing research during this session proposed by MERC. It offers a platform for speakers not only to present upcoming projects, but also connect with a wider community of early career researchers. Furthermore, it offers opportunities to discuss new and promising research avenues that will shape tomorrow’s medieval archaeology, through short and dynamic talks of six minutes. The presentation of experimental or unprecedented work is also explicitly encouraged. We welcome papers tackling a wide variety of currently pressing as well as innovative themes, crucial concerns for the field, potential of new technologies, unexplored avenues, and new work on old subjects/materials. We aim to bring together a diverse group of early career scholars, therefore participants from all geographical backgrounds are encouraged to submit a proposal.
