The Society for American Archaeology invites abstracts for its 74th
annual meeting, "Archaeology and the International Polar Year: What Have
We Learned About the History and Prehistory of the Circumpolar North,
and Where Do We Go From Here?" The meeting is scheduled for 22-26 April
2009, in Atlanta, Georgia.

This year marks the final season of archaeological and interdisciplinary
activities related to the third International Polar Year (IPY)
2007-2008, and 125 years since the first of such endeavors. A broad
range of international archaeological projects formed a significant part
of IPY activities, addressing such issues as climate change impacts,
human-animal relations, social interactions, migrations, ethnic
identities, and the relationship between history and modern peoples.
This archaeology IPY symposium will offer the opportunity to present the
results culminating from two years of international research, and will
also provide for a discussion of future directions in circumpolar
archaeology.

Abstracts are now being accepted for papers, posters, and reports.
Interested participants may submit one abstract for consideration. No
abstract may list more than five authors. All abstracts must be
submitted via the online application form:

The deadline for submissions is Wednesday, 10 September 2008.
