The McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research (University of Cambridge) will host a two-day symposium on "The Transition to Agriculture at the edges of Eurasia: Neolithisation in the British Isles and the Jomon-Yayoi transition" on July 4-5.
This two-day symposium will present the latest advances on the transition to farming in the British Isles and the Japanese archipelago as well as the key outputs of the ENCOUNTER project. A total of 19 speakers will discuss different aspects of this pivotal event, covering aspects such as population genetics, cultural transmission, paleoecology, subsistence economy and paleodemography. The event will be both in person and online (the number of in-person attendees will be limited).
