e-Conference: Labels, Lithics and Landforms - Improving Controlled Vocabularies for Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Data
A two-day FISH e-conference took place on 23-24 October to discuss the use of existing terminologies for recording British Palaeolithic and Mesolithic information. The conference considered how this data could be better indexed and described in research resources in light of recent advances in the understanding of these periods. It also considered mechanisms for achieving this aim.
The conference was a follow up to recent Historic Environment Record (HER) enhancement projects funded under the National Heritage Protection Plan - Activity 4G1 Pleistocene and Early Holocene Archaeology. This work was presented at the HER Forum meeting in July 2014. Initial discussion on the subject was held on the HER Forum mailing list.
