I’m about to disappear off the grid for a couple of weeks (fieldwork in Gwaii Haanas) but before I do, I want to give some publicity for the Annual BC Archaeology Forum. It’s great to have some advance notice of this and as you can see below it is co-hosted by VIU and the Snuneymuxw First Nation.
edit: they now have a website including the program.
British Columbia Archaeology Forum
Saturday, October 18th, 2014
Nanaimo, BC
We are pleased to announce that the 2014 British Columbia Archaeology Forum will be hosted by Vancouver Island University in the territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation in Nanaimo, BC this coming October.
A reception will be held on the evening of Friday, October 17th, with Saturday the 18th reserved for a full day of speakers and presentations followed by an evening event, and optional Sunday excursions in the local area.
We are currently consulting with downtown hotels about the event and securing discounted rooms for forum participants; more information on this will be provided asap.
In the meantime, save the date — Saturday, October 18th, 2014 — and we’ll be in touch soon!

Just a note for future planning – apparently the 2015 Archaeology Forum may be jointly hosted by UBC Lab of Archaeology and Musqueam First Nation, and held somewhere on Point Grey, one assumes.
