Title:
Discovering the Archaeologists of Europe, 10 Years Later
Content:
In recent years, the long wake of the economic crisis that began in 2008, the consequences of Brexit and finally the Covid-19 pandemic have changed European archaeologies enormously: this is a sensation that any observer can relate to in any European country; In many cases, recent statistical data is missing and the last organic
research on the working conditions of European archaeologists, on a continental scale, dates back to 2014, 10 years ago.
How archaeologists work in 2023? Where do they work? Who are they? How many of them are working now? These are only some of the questions asked by journalists, politicians or any other stakeholder involved in archaeologists work.
During this round-table discussion, the speakers will present their research carried out in recent years on the activity of archaeological research, and their advice for a new project on a European scale. With this session, we will try to compose an exhaustive picture of what is currently available on the topic and relaunching the urgency and need for new research at a continental level.
