Lecture talk (June 18th, 18h – 19h)

Location: MSH Clermont-Ferrand, amphithéatre 219

by Boštjan Laharnar, Head of archaeological department, National Museum of Slovenia

The Dolenjska group as an integral part of the south-eastern Alpine Hallstatt culture: Overview and Outline.

Boštjan Laharnar will present us the splendours of Slovenian Iron Age, widely known for its “art of situlae”. Located at the crossroads between the Mediterranean and the Continental Europe, the area of today Slovenia has seen the emergence of hierarchical societies which developed a peculiar lifestyle, borrowing from local and Mediterranean traditions.

Workshop (June 19th, 9h – 12h30)

Location: Gergovia building, Clermont-Ferrand, salle informatique 332

Topic: This practical workshop will allow participants to learn about GIS mobility modelling (calculation of the optimal path, surface-time, etc.), as well as visibility analysis (landscape impact of structures, intervisibility networks, etc.). We will discuss these approaches through practical case studies, based on archaeological data.

Prerequisites: Familiarity with GIS (data management, understanding the principle of vector and raster layers). We will use the QGIS software.
