This is still the spirit of the city today. Tarraco was a little Rome, open to the Mediterranean and with a particularly pleasant climate, that is, a good place to live and prosper. In 2000, UNESCO declared its archaeological sites a World Heritage S ite. Tarraco, as it was known in Roman times, provides an eloquent and unprecedented testimony to an important stage in the history of the Mediterranean in antiquity. Tarragona is a port city located in northeast Spain by the Mediterranean Sea. ⇒ General queries about the conference can be addressed to: Maria Ferrer and Alexandra Livarda at and visit Tarragona!

Morning sessions and closing of the conference. In the afternoon, guided tours of Roman Tarragona will be offered free of charge (prior registration required) Registration and full-day conference including the AGM (AEA Annual Meeting) Gala dinner to follow. Preliminary conference schedule: Friday 24th (16-20 h)

The aim will be to move the focus away from the data, techniques, and methodological advances to the narrative, to explore how our research has helped explain and interpret the past and which are our key contributions in creating history.Īnother important area will be the examination of effective communication strategies of our stories and research achievements to colleagues of other academic fields and the public and how these can contribute real impact on modern society through either a better understanding of the past or lessons and practical guidance for the future. In this conference, we seek to explore the contributions of environmental archaeology to these ‘stories’ of the past. Environmental archaeology has made great strides, moving on from the ‘appendix’ of site reports listing species to occupying an important role and shedding light from different angles on key archaeological questions. Greater engagement in theoretical debates and approaches has further contributed to a multivocality and a proliferation of narratives that entangle different scales of analysis to explain the past. The increasing interdisciplinarity and the development of new methodologies to treat archaeological primary data have opened new possibilities to deepen our interpretations and go one step further in understanding our cultural heritage. The interpretation of sites, soils, stratigraphies, cultural artifacts, and bioarchaeological remains using archaeological methods provides a rich source of material to investigate past behaviours and ultimately explain the human stories behind scientific data. Registration will open soon, watch out for news on the conference webpage! Abstract and call for papers
