Historical archaeology

The Research Seminars on History and Maritime Archeology, organized by the University of Cádiz, are born with the vocation of becoming an international reference framework for young researchers. The NOVA University of Lisbon hosts this year the third edition of these conferences, opening a space for the exchange and visibility of work related to the sea and the humanities, through a collaboration between the Campus of Excellence (CEIMAR) and the UNESCO-UNITWIN Chair "O Patrimonio Cultural dos Oceans".

This congress is open to all researchers at any stage of their career, whether academics, students, commercial or community archaeologists, to report recent research on any aspect of post-medieval/later historical archaeology, from c.1500AD to the present day. We encourage contributors to offer 15-minute papers or poster displays which will be grouped by the organisers into themed sessions.
