ICOM June Meeting in Paris

The June meetings in Paris, by ICOM, are legendary. Each country sends a delegation, each international committee and many affiliated organisations too are present. This year, EXARC had the luck that our Treasurer, also Chair of ICOM Netherlands, attended the meetings and represented EXARC.

Important contacts were made with the Paris Office of ICOM as well as with ICMAH, the International Committee for Museums of Archaeology and History. Keeping in mind 2016 will see the large triannual meeting of ICOM in Milan, it was important to start planning cooperation to maximize EXARCs visibility at that huge conference next year. As the Conference theme for Milan 2016 is “Museums and historical landscapes”, EXARC members can contribute a lot with their archaeological (re)constructions and experimental archaeology.
