Old Excavation Data. What Can We Do?: Proceedings of the Workshop held at 10th ICAANE in Vienna, April 2016

The book describes theoretical and technical approaches to the digital integration of resources from old and long-term archaeological fieldwork projects in the Eastern Mediterranean region and Near Eastern states. All papers share a concern with the heterogeneity of resources from archaeological fieldwork, and they present a variety of strategies to overcome this challenge in the process of digitisation in order to preserve archaeological data and make it more accessible to researchers regardless of location. This volume results from presentations given at the workshop titled ‘Old Excavation Data – What Can We Do?’, held on 28 April 2016 at the 10th International Congress on the Archaeology of the Ancient Near East (ICAANE) in Vienna.

Dieses Buch behandelt die digitale Integration von Ressourcen aus alten archäologischen Langzeitforschungsprojekten im östlichen Mittelmeerraum und in Ländern des Nahen Ostens. Alle Arbeiten befassen sich mit der Heterogenität der vorliegenden Quellen und präsentieren unterschiedliche Strategien, um diese Herausforderung zu meistern. Der Band stammt aus einem Workshop mit dem Titel "Old Excavation Data – What Can We Do?", der am 28. April 2016 auf dem 10. International Congress on the Archaeology of the Ancient Near East (ICAANE) in Wien stattfand.
