STACHEM Events

In order to lay the groundwork for networking the regional infrastructures, a total of six small workshops, thematic in nature and destined to support the aims of the three focus areas of the project, have been organized within the STACHEM project. Two workshops for each thematic area have been held in different locations in the region: workshops on infrastructures for natural and material science applications to archaeology in Xanthi, Greece (May 2009) and in Amman, Jordan (November 2010); workshops on infrastructures for underwater archaeology in Athens, Greece (December 2009) and in Haifa, Israel (February 2010); workshops on infrastructures for digitization of cultural heritage in Paestum, Italy (November 2009) and Florence, Italy (April 2010). Each workshop has brought together providers and users of infrastructures from different countries in the region, in order to foster the exchanges of ideas, interactions and common plans among the participants.

In addition these smaller thematic workshops, an initial users meeting has been held in Cyprus at the beginning of the project, and the international conference, held at the end of the project in Nicosia, Cyprus, presented results of the various subject areas and brought together decision and policy makers and leading experts in archaeological sciences, digital heritage and underwater archaeology.
