Deadline for abstracts is 1 October 2003
The 11th Arctic Conference will be held at the University of Washington
November 7-8, 2003 in the Husky Union Building.
The conference is traditionally a data sharing and ideas meeting where
archaeologists, anthropologists, ecologists, geologists, and others get
together to share information.
A block of rooms will be reserved near the UW Campus, with details
forthcoming.
Please pass this note to others who might be interested. Deadline for
abstracts is October 1, but please let me know if you are coming before
that date so I can make sure we have blocked off enough hotel rooms.
For those interested, there will be opportunities to examine the Tanginak
Spring site collections developed by University of Washington excavations
in the past few years. The site is a 7500-6000 cal bp, stratified Early
Ocean Bay site from the Kodiak Archipelago and among the oldest sites
known from the islands. We expect to have completed excavations of
this site by the end of this summer.
Contact Ben Fitzhugh at any time for further details.
