Spondylus in European Prehistory: New Data and Approaches
A Session on the Archaeology of Shell Technologies
Organizers
Dr. Marianna Nikolaidou
[Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA, USA]
Fotis Ifantidis, MA
[Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece]
The forthcoming European Association of Archaeologists meeting in Zadar provides a great opportunity for discussing thoroughly the Spondylus ‘phenomenon’ in European prehistoric contexts. It brings together new archaeological data, methodological advances, and current interpretations for the study of this important material. Further understanding comes from Spondylus comparanda in other parts of the world and from the wider context of ancient shell technologies.
Posters and papers to be presented are related to the following topics:
• New excavated data [data from prehistoric sites in European, Balkan and Aegean contexts] or syntheses of older material

It brings together new archaeological data, methodological advances, and current interpretations for the study of this important material. Further understanding comes from Spondylus comparanda in other parts of the world and from the wider context of ancient shell technologies.
Posters and papers to be presented are related to the following topics:
• New excavated data [data from prehistoric sites in European, Balkan and Aegean contexts] or syntheses of older material
• Laboratory analyses of raw material source and procurement
• Spondylus distributions, inter-site and intra-site
• Fragmentation / re-fitting studies of Spondylus annulets
• The biographical approach: procuring, crafting, using, recycling, destroying and hoarding Spondylus artifacts
• Experimental reproductions of manufacture / the use of the ethnographic resources
• Spondylus in the wider context of prehistoric adornment types
• Spondylus 'mythologies' world-wide: Ancient and modern
• Spondylus distributions, inter-site and intra-site
• Fragmentation / re-fitting studies of Spondylus annulets
• The biographical approach: procuring, crafting, using, recycling, destroying and hoarding Spondylus artifacts
• Experimental reproductions of manufacture / the use of the ethnographic resources
