SAS generally does not organize standalone conferences, workshops, or networking events. Instead, we focus on finding existing events worldwide and supporting them with organizational assistance, social media promotion, and funding. The Society currently has an official relationship with the following upcoming events regarding co-sponsorship, symposium organization, or an awards program. See the next page for events that we have sponsored in the last five years.
44th International Symposium on Archaeometry (ISA 2024): May 27th - 31st, 2024, The University of Melbourne, Australia
SAS is a co-sponsor of ISA 2024 and a partner of the host organization the Australasian Research Cluster for Archaeological Science (ARCAS). SAS will sponsor the R.E. Taylor Student Poster Award at the conference, as has been the case at past ISA meetings. For the first time, SAS members will be eligible for a 10% registration fee discount at ISA.
Archaeometallurgy in Europe 2024: June 11th - 14th, 2024, Falun, Sweden
