Listen in this month to hear all about archaeology in Brazil, as we get ready for the upcoming EAC14 conference, which will be held later this month at the Federal University of Paraná from the 12th – 16th May.
We are joined by a very special guest, João Carlos Moreno de Sousa. João, also known as JuCa, is an Associate Professor of Archaeology at the Federal University of Rio Grande, and at the Federal University of Paraná, both in Brazil. He is also head of the Laboratory for Evolutionary and Experimental Archaeology and Prehistory. JuCa is also one of the primary organisers of the upcoming EAC14 conference. In this episode, we hear more about JuCa’s work, how archaeology and heritage work can be used to bridge the gaps between past and present communities, and about the history of archaeology in Brazil more broadly.
If you’ve found this interesting, we hope to see you at the upcoming hybrid EAC14 conference! We have a fantastic programme planned this year, with experimental archaeology in South America playing a big role in the conference, as well as broader sessions on lithics, rock art, bone, wood, textiles and ceramics. Keynote speakers are Prof. Dr. Hugo Nami from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina and Prof. Dr. Alex Martire from the Federal University of Rio Grande in Brazil.
We hope you enjoy this month’s episode of EXARC Encounters, and join us either online or in person at EAC14!
