Fieldnotes is a new feature of the AIA website aimed to better serve our professional and student Members. It is a user-driven source of information about current trends in the discipline, as well as a venue for presentation and discussion of new directions in the field; methods and methodologies; and institutional funding, research programs, and teaching resources. Both individuals and institutions are encouraged to submit short articles, field reports, announcements, news items, and links to digital resources, which are relevant to the professional and academic membership of the AIA. 

The AIA invites archaeologists and scholars from related fields to submit a session or paper for consideration for inclusion in the Academic Program.

We are excited to return to Philadelphia for the 2012 Annual Meeting. The program will feature academic sessions presenting the latest research from the field, workshops that discuss and present new technologies, and special events that focus on archaeology both locally and globally. The Program Committee is currently accepting abstracts for consideration for inclusion in the Academic Program. The first deadline (March 27th) is quickly approaching. Please see the Call for Papers for full details.
