Tuesday 10. december 17.00 am
I forbindelse med at Dr. Richard I Macphail (Institute of Archaeology, University College London) kommer til Bergen for 氓 ta ut geo-arkeologiske pr酶vemateriale p氓 H氓konshellaveien har han sagt seg villig til 氓 ha en forelesning. Macphail 听er en sv忙rt anerkjent forsker og en nestor innen geoarkeologi. Planen er at dette skal v忙re et slags introduksjonsforedrag til emnet og dette kommer til 氓 bli eksemplifisert med studier fra Vest Norge.

Tittel p氓 forelesning: Integrated geoarchaeological investigations (coastal sites and settlement morphology.
Tid: Tirsdag 10. desember kl. 17.00
Sted: M酶terommet i 3. etasje, Frieles gate 1 (Fornminneseksjonen)

Associate professor Steinar Solheim, Museum of Cultural History, University of Oslo:
THE MOST EXCITING OF TIMES鈥� OR TOWARDS A 鈥淧OST-TRUTH ARCHAEOLOGY? Radiocarbon big data and dates as data approaches.
听
ABSTRACT:
Population size and density are key variables in human evolution, and demography and population growth has been at the centre of policy debates since Malthus published An Essay on the Principle of Population in the late 18th century.
Throughout history, population growth and increase in population density have been important drivers for economic and cultural shifts. Archaeology is well suited to engage in debates surrounding population growth. Over the long term, it can estimate population levels, consider human impact on environment and help understanding drivers and constraints of population growth and decline.
Since the 1980s archaeologist have recognized the utility of radiocarbon dates as more than just a method to date structures, strata and sites. In the era of big data, the use of aggregated radiocarbon dates as proxies for human population dynamics has received increased attention. A wide range of studies covering different chronological periods and geographical scales are published in the recent years. In this presentation, I aim to discuss the advantages and challenges with the 鈥渄ates as data鈥� approach. I will also present the ongoing work with constructing a new C14-database at the Museum of Cultural History. Finally, I will give two case studies from 1) the Mesolithic and Neolithic and 2) the Iron Age to exemplify how we can apply this approach on data from SE-Norway. 听 听 听

Dr. Ingrid Mainland, University of the Highlands and Islands:
Title: Coasting along?: climate change, coastal erosion and environmental archaeology - challenges and opportunities
Abstract:听
It is now widely accepted that anthropogenically-driven climatic change on a global scale is a reality and that we are facing unprecedented climatic shifts and consequent environmental impacts during the coming centuries. There is increasing recognition that archaeologists can, and should, contribute to wider political and social agendas on climate change and in particular have a significant role to play both in promoting an understanding of human response to climatic and environmental change and as a vehicle for education for sustainability (EfS). In this presentation I will use coastal erosion of heritage (both cultural and natural) to explore how environmental archaeology can contribute in raising awareness of climate change, and听 whether research to date is leading to behavioural change. While environmental archaeology (and archaeology) in general has great potential in this area, I will argue that to make a positive contribution to wider agendas and policies on climate change there is a need to develop mechanisms which evaluate the contribution we make in effecting climate change literacy within diverse audiences - from policy makers to the general public and our students. Case studies will draw on ongoing UHI research in Scotland and Oceania.

15. 鈥� 16. October Excursion to Sotra and 脴ygarden (only for those who have signed up)
Researchers from Troms酶 Museum (the research group ARCARC) and our research group (COASTARK) at the University museum/AHKR participate in a joint excursion to archaeological sites at Sotra and 脴ygarden (15.10) and meeting (16.10). The main goal is to start a dialogue towards developing common projects on the coastal archaeology theme.
