International Archaeology Conference
War: What is it Good For? Conflict and Defence in Roman Iron Age and Early Medieval Europe
The conference will be hosted at the University of Aberdeen, and will consider both conflict and defence in archaeology illuminates how human societies experience, organise, and respond to violence, examining both the traces of conflict itself and the structures built to resist or manage it.
Through the meeting of our society and sustained dialogue the conference will aim to highlight the rich and evolving ways in which history, archaeology and scientific approaches continues to deepen our understanding of human conflict and defence across the Roman and early medieval periods. Hosted at the University of Aberdeen the conference will showcase recent developments in the study of fortified settlements in late Roman and early medieval Britain, alongside talks from colleagues across Europe that will explore the broader themes of the conference.
