The AAA Conference 2017 takes place 6-8 December in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. There will be two sessions on experimental archaeology at the Australian Archaeological Association (AAA) 2017 Conference as well as a pre-conference workshop day.

On behalf of the organizing committee, we invite you to participate in the African Conference on Experimental Archaeology (ACE), in Johannesburg, South Africa. The conference will be held at the Wits Club, University of the Witwatersrand. ACE encourages the exchange and sharing of new work in scientific experiments and closely related activities focussing on African and Africanist research.

This year the REARC meetings are scheduled for October 25th and 26th in historic Fredericksburg, Virginia. We are excited to announce that the Department of Historic Preservation at the University of Mary Washington will host Friday presentations. And on Saturday, REARC craftspeople will hold a variety of demonstrations/workshops at George Washington’s Ferry Farm.

Sharpen your prehistoric tools for a day out to remember as we celebrate everything that is great about flint! Explore the undulating grounds of Grime’s Graves, the only prehistoric flint mine open to the public in the UK, before heading deep underground into the prehistoric flint mine* wearing your hard hat!
