This research workshop of the Israel Science Foundation was organized by Judith Bronstein (Haifa University), Lisa Yehuda (Tel Aviv University) and POMEDOR member Edna Stern (Israel Antiquities Authority) in the framework of their ISF project.
The program proposed talks by several other POMEDOR members, and included a great visit of the emblematic site of Saint-Jean d'Acre, guided by the very archaeologists who excavated large parts of the Crusader city and studied its food-related stuctures and material culture (E. Stern, E.J. Stern, L. Yehuda).
The aim of the Symposium is to promote the development and use of scientific techniques, for the extraction of archaeological and historical information from the cultural heritage and the paleoenvironment. It involves all Natural Sciences and all types of objects and materials related with human activity. Emphasis will be given to integrated and multi-disciplinary studies involving archaeological or anthropological research.
