The Maritime Archaeology Graduate Symposium (MAGS)<\/b><\/p>\n

Dates<\/b>: November 25-26, 2021 (Thursday to Friday)<\/span><\/p>\n

Location<\/b>: MAGS 2021 will be held virtually via AMUZoom<\/span><\/p>\n

Organisers: <\/b>Jafar ANBAR<\/strong>, PhD candidate, HFF scholar.\u00a0 Judith GATT<\/strong>, PhD candidate, HFF scholar. Labrini TSITSOU<\/strong>, PhD candidate.<\/p>\n

Since 2018, the Maritime Archaeology Graduate Symposium (MAGS)<\/strong> inspired and supported by the Honor Frost Foundation<\/a><\/strong>, has encouraged students and young scholars to present their research in the form of research papers and posters, in order to share their results and ideas and engage in enriching discussions. Maritime archaeology is developing thanks to the application of multidisciplinary approaches, innovative research methodologies and techniques. We hope that these new orientations will be reflected once more in this year\u2019s Symposium with the participation of early-career researchers (Master\u2019s and PhD students, post-doctoral academics).<\/p>\n

This year MAGS 2021 will be hosted for the first time by Aix-Marseille University<\/a><\/strong>. Because of the constraints of Covid-19 pandemic it will be held virtually. The first day will be devoted to maritime archaeology of the eastern Mediterranean. As every year, MAGS is supported by the Honor Frost Foundation<\/a><\/strong>, since Honor Frost, a pioneer in the field, primarily worked in this region. However, research papers and posters beyond the eastern Mediterranean are very welcome and will be presented on the second and third day. We hope that this virtual symposium will be an opportunity for the gathering of many young scholars working on a large range of subjects that will highlight the diversity and richness of maritime archaeological research internationally.<\/p>\n
