The Society for Medieval Archaeology Student Colloquium 2012
Cardiff University
8-9th November 2012
The first call for papers is now open for the Society of Medieval Archaeology Student Colloquium, to be held at Cardiff University, 8-9th November 2012. The event aims to provide a platform for postgraduates and early career professionals to present and discuss their current research.
Papers from across the medieval period (5th-16th centuries AD) and from all geographical areas are welcomed. Papers from subjects other than archaeology, but which have a broader medieval significance, will also be considered. Abstracts for posters are also encouraged.
Abstracts should be written concisely in English (no more than 150 words) and submitted using the abstract submission form which can be downloaded from the Conference Website. Please note that papers will be 20 minutes in length with a 10 minute discussion for each session. Presentations will be restricted to postgraduates and early career researchers but we welcome posters from all medievalists.
Completed abstract forms should be sent to: medieval.archaeology@googlemail.com. The deadline for all presentation and poster abstracts is Friday 7th September.
NB: This conference will be held in English.
