Islamic Archaeology Section

In the past years, the Islamic section of ICAANE has been established as a forum that has been essential for information and discussion in the growing field of archaeology of the Islamic Near East. This concerns reports about field research and current activities as well as the discussion of theories of cultural history. Debating the circumstances under which the academic field is operating has also had an important share in the ICAANE section on Islamic archaeology. The advisory committee that has been active for the past years, with Cristina Tonghini, Alan Walmsley, Donald Whitcomb, and Alison Gascoigne, will continue to accompany this section.
For the XIth ICAANE in 2018, the organizing committee invites papers on all aspects of the archaeology of the Islamic Near East to be presented in this section. Archaeologists working on the Islamic period who wish to give papers relating to topics of other sections will certainly be free to present them there. However, please keep in mind the potential audience among interested colleagues in the Islamic section.
