School of Archaeology Special Panel discussion on heritage and academic study of the past - convened in honour of the centenary of women at Oxford

The School of Archaeology cordially invites staff and students of the University of Oxford to join us on Friday 12th March at 15:30 for a special panel convened in honour of the centenary of women at Oxford.

The panel will consider the intersection of past-facing academic disciplines with heritage. What is ‘heritage’ as a cross-disciplinary space (within and beyond the heritage sector)? What contributions can academic disciplines with an interest in the past make to heritage, through the pandemic and beyond? And what forms of collaboration are important?

Date: 12 March 2021, 15:30 (Friday, 8th week, Hilary 2021)
Venue: Online with Zoom
Speakers: Professor Dame Sarah Whatmore (Head of Division, Social Sciences), Professor Amy Bogaard (Head of School of Archaeology, Oxford), Professor Roberta Gilchrist (University of Reading), Professor Helena Hamerow (School of Archaeology, Oxford), Dr Rachael Kiddey (School of Archaeology, Oxford), Professor Lynn Meskell (University of Pennsylvania), Dr Sada Mire (Archaeologist, art historian and presenter), Professor Himanshu Prabha Ray (Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies), Professor Eleanor Robson (UCL)
