Description
Summary:For the annual Tagung (conference), about 120 people convened in the southernmost point of Germany, at Lake Constance, near the borders of Switzerland and Austria. This conference is the perfect networking event for experimental archaeology in the German spoken part of Europe. Out of the 27 lectures, 25 were presented in German. The strength, but also its weakness, of the conference is that anything goes. The Tagung is a friendly platform where high school students, seasoned professors, craftspeople, and everybody in between meet and exchange knowledge. Another strength is their swift publication process; last year’s conference proceedings (consisting of 230 pages) was available at this year’s conference and almost 30 books have been published since 1990.
