The Istituto Italiano di Preistoria e Protostoria is sponsoring a conference on the topic of "Integrated Methodological Approaches to the Study of Lithic Technology" in December 2007. The keynote speakers include Eric Boëda, Eudald Carbonell, Jacques Jaubert and Steven Kuhn, all of whom have made significant contributions to the fields of lithic analysis and to Paleolithic archaeology. More information on what promises to be a very stimulating and exciting meeting can be found here, and is also available in English and in French.
