DESCRIPTION:-------- 10TH COTSEN GRADUATE ARCHAEOLOGY CONFERENCE: PLURAL GE
 OGRAPHIES [1] -\n\nThe 2025 Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Graduate Stude
 nt Conference centers  on the theme of “Plural Geographies: exploring Alte
 rnative Ecologies and  navigating through the Field.” This topic is meant 
 to provide a platform  for alternative approaches to archaeological method
 s. With this year’s  theme, the conference organizing committee encourage
 s graduate students to  reflect, explore, and challenge the field of arc
 haeology and related fields,  especially through spatial, placebased, l
 and-based, ecological, or  geographical means, construed broadly. We ro
 ot our discussions within the  realms of geography, space, and place in 
 order to interrogate the ways in  which archaeology is necessarily intertw
 ined with discussions of land, land  use, ecology, political ecologies 
 and more across multiple scales, from the  material level of excavation a
 nd other forms of land-based research to its  engagement and entanglement 
 with the construction of nations and inscription  of borders on a global s
 cale. We look forward to welcoming discussion on  systemic, disciplinary\
 , and personal approaches to negotiating bias,  identity, and deep-roote
 d legacies of colonialism within the field.\n\nPlural Geographies features
  two keynote speakers who together represent  diverse scholarly background
 s and intellectual engagements with the  conference theme: Dr. Anna Agbe-D
 avies (UNC-Chapel Hill), a historical  archaeologist with a particular fo
 cus on African diasporic contexts, and Dr.  Menna Agha (Carleton Universi
 ty), an architect and scholar of social justice  within the field of arch
 itecture. They will be joined by 13 papers  presentations, roundtable and
  breakout sessions, undergraduate poster  session, and a film screening 
 from graduate students and community across  different fields working arou
 nd the globe.\n\n\n/Registration for in-person or Zoom required./\n\n*Regi
