Its website it now live. In general this conference has a Eurasian focus. For those with African interests, there is the smaller IWAA, also every three years, and meeting this July.
Some thoughts on recent publications in archaeobotany and agricultural origins. Opinions and views on the evolution and history of crops. Memorials of archaeobotanists we have lost. The author's research has previously been supported by grants from the ERC and NERC.
