Upcoming themes

TA126: Non-intrusive approaches. This issue will focus on the growing range of non-intrusive approaches that can be used on archaeological projects. Developments in technology and innovation have widened the options for using these approaches as an evaluation tool, either as a precursor or in combination with necessary intrusive works. What new approaches have you successfully employed? Deadline 1 August 2025.
