Welcome to DIG!
Developing International Geoarchaeology (DIG) is the title of a series of very successful international conferences. The goal of DIG is to bring together a wide variety of international researchers, practitioners and students in this diverse and interdisciplinary field in order to facilitate discussion, stimulate research, and promote international scholarship in geoarchaeology.

This website is designed to serve as an archive for information on past conferences and as a central entry-point which will facilitate access to information on upcoming conferences. It is also a mechanism for contacting people involved with DIG, including the international steering committee, listed below.
The very successful DIG 2011 was held at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville from September 20th to the 24th. Consult the DIG 2011 website at www.digknoxville.com and check it out under "past conferences" here.
Congratulations to the organisers, Calla McNamee and Howard Cyr, and all their helpers, for a job very well done.
Stay tuned for news on when and where the next DIG conference will be! - And feel free to contact the steering committee members if you want to get involved, or host a conference.
The international steering committee is a small, informal, group of researchers who have been involved with one or more DIG conferences to date, and who are willing to help promote the continuation of the DIG idea in the future.
