The Archaeological Sciences Centre at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN) has pursued a programme of organizing ‘History, Science and Technology’ workshops that focus upon a selected archaeological artifact class or material. The aim of these events has been to expose a selected group of students with an acute sense of specific problems and opportunities that are involved in the study of that material. This has taken shape in the motivation to host a conversation between the leading experts of the field, and equally to provide hands-on training in the ethnoarchaeological, experimental and scientific prospects of that particular field of archaeological research.

Abstract


The Archaeological Sciences Centre at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN) has pursued a programme of organizing ‘History, Science and Technology’ workshops that focus upon a selected archaeological artifact class or material. The aim of these events has been to expose a selected group of students with an acute sense of specific problems and opportunities that are involved in the study of that material. This has taken shape in the motivation to host a conversation between the leading experts of the field, and equally to provide hands-on training in the ethnoarchaeological, experimental and scientific prospects of that particular field of archaeological research.
