ICAZ International Conferences
Once every four years ICAZ hosts an International Conference during
which Individual Members in good standing have the opportunity to
communicate aspects of their research by means of lectures, posters,
or other forms of presentation considered appropriate by the conference
organizers. Presentations by non-members of ICAZ may be invited
or accepted by the conference organizers. Conference organizers
are free to highlight certain themes of research, but the general
program of the meeting is open in order to promote the broadest
possible exchange of information among researchers.
Update on the 2010 ICAZ International Conference in Paris, France
The 11th ICAZ International Conference will take place in Paris, France, between August 23-28, 2010. Some events will be held at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, others will take place at the nearby campus of Pierre et Marie Curie University, where six amphitheatres with more than 120 seats and a large congress hall have been reserved for the conference. Following two days of presentations, Thursday (August 26) will be devoted to archaeological and cultural field trips in and around Paris. Several multi-days excursions will be organised either before or after the conference (such as visits to Dordogne Palaeolithic rock art sites and other sites located further away from Paris).
The conference will have three main focal themes: 1) Archaeozoology in Central and Eastern Europe, 2) Palaeolithic Archaeozoology, and 3) the History of Archaeozoology. Papers and posters on any other topics are also welcome. We hope to have many archaeozoologists from Central and Eastern Europe in attendance as well as archaeozoologists from around the world.
The conference organising committee is led by Jean-Denis Vigne, Marylène Patou-Mathis and Christine Lefèvre, with the assistance of Marie Balasse, Sandrine Grouard, Joséphine Lesur, Marjane Mashkour, Stéphane Péan, Anne Tresset, and Carole Vercoutère. The committee is currently searching for additional sponsors. The Alpha Visa Company will assist the conference organisers with registration, hotel booking, and other administrative details. For more information, contact Jean-Denis Vigne via e-mail at vigne@mnhn.fr (please put "ICAZ2010"in the subject heading).
