“Archaeology and Sustainability: Learning from the Past for Safe Resilient Future” is the main topic of the 16th International Conference on the History and Archaeology of Jordan (ICHAJ 16) which takes place in Athens, Greece.
The conference is organized by Jordan’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities and the Department of Antiquities in cooperation with the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
Held every three years since its inaugural session at Oxford University in 1980, ICHAJ has become a vital platform for presenting new archaeological discoveries, methodologies, and debates. The conference’s 13 thematic tracks include “Archaeology, Identity, and Human Rights,” “Climate Change and Cultural Heritage,” and “Sustainable Tourism and World Heritage Sites in Jordan.” Sessions will present recent excavation reports, technological innovations in archaeology, and reflections on cultural heritage management.
