The 5th Archaeological Research and New Technologies Symposium (ARCH_RNT) will take place in October 4-5, 2018, in Kalamata, Greece and is organised by the Laboratory of Archaeometry of the University of the Peloponnese.
The focus of the 5th ARCH_RNT will be on Electron Microscopy and its most recent applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage. Invited talks will be given by: - Dr. Nestor J. Zaluzec (Argonne National Laboratory, USA): "Analytical Electron Microscopy of nanoparticles in Hidalgo/Pachuca obsidian" - Dr. Gilles Patriarche (Center of Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies, France): "New insights into the production technology of Chinese blue by TEM/STEM" For further information please contact us at [email protected]. We would also like to inform you that the ARCH_RNT Organization has reserved a limited number of rooms at Hotel Haikos at the very low cost of 35 (single) and 45 (double) euro per night (breakfast included). If you are interested please inform so by providing exact dates, till Friday the 28th of September. The booking will be made by the Organisation (not directly via the hotel). *SYMPOSIUM PROGRAMME* *Thursday, October 4* 18:00 - 18:45 – Registration 18:45 - 19:00 - Welcoming Remarks and Opening Ceremony *19:00 - 21:00 - SESSION 1* 19:00 - 19.30 - KEYNOTE.
