EXARC members @victoriaallucas and @PitoneRomeo will be presenting at #EAC12 make sure you get the dates in your diary!
The first abstracts for our experimental archaeology world tour are published and they look very promising! We will go around the world in 80 experiments in March, and if you like to present during that whirlwind, you can still answer our call for papers.
