“Bioarchaeology: Bodies and Lives”
led by Dr. Janet E. Kay, Associate Research Scholar, Department of Art & Archaeology
Friday, October 29
1:30-3:30PM
Location TBD based upon registration
How can we learn about the lives of people from the past, especially if their stories were not recorded or were lost to history? Students are invited to a two-hour workshop to explore bioarcheological research methods and their applications for funerary archaeology, life course studies, and projects examining health, disease, diet, and migration.
Suggestions (via the registration link below) for specific topics that students would like to explore are very welcome, especially in relation to upcoming or potential dissertation or thesis work!
