The AIA-Coalition for Archaeological Synthesis (CfAS) working group has developed a conference format called Quick Takes: Big Archaeological Topics in 5min or Less to explore concepts with critical implications in the field of archaeology and disseminate information for the AIA meetings and beyond.
The inaugural program, Quick Takes – Take #1: Big Datasets in Archaeology, showcases nine videos of scholars working in a variety of places and time periods. Their contributions discuss various types of big datasets and the different approaches that they take to analyze, curate, and disseminate these data.
The Joukowsky Institute’s very own Dr. Parker VanValkenburgh (Associate Professor of Anthropology) led a five minute presentation on his work with GeoPACHA and South American archaeology. Click this link to watch the video!
