Across Space and Time

The 41st Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology Across Space and Time (CAA2013) conference was held in the city of Perth (Western Australia) from 25th to 28th March 2013. The theme of the conference was ‘Across Space and Time’ which alluded to both the paths that archaeological research moves across and to the space and time that delegates would have to travel to reach the 2013 CAA destination. The conference was hosted by CAA Australia National Chapter, which was purposely created in the months just after the successful bid presented in 2010. Two academic institutions, The University of Western Australia and The University of Sydney, supported the conference in different ways, using their physical and organisational infrastructures. The specific entities involved in the event organisation were the Discipline of Archaeology, School of Social Sciences at the University of Western Australia, and Arts eResearch and the Faculty of Arts (providing accounting support) at the University of Sydney.
