The Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG) meeting for 2025 will be hosted by the Dept. of Archaeology at the University of York from the 15th-17th December. The Call for Papers closes on the 1st August. ATRIUM invites contributions to the session Towards Adaptation: Environmental Sustainability in Archaeological Workflows as follows:
How sustainable is archaeological research today?
This session invites contributions that critically examine the environmental impact of archaeological practices: both digital and physical. From fieldwork emissions to the energy demands of digital infrastructures, we explore how sustainability challenges can provoke deeper reflection on research workflows, epistemologies, and ethics.
We welcome papers on topics including (but not limited to):
- Assessing the environmental footprint of archaeological methods
- Rethinking digital tools and data through a sustainability lens
- The role of reuse, open science, and FAIR data in shaping sustainable futures
- Colonial legacies and digital inequities in research infrastructures.
