Forschungsgeschichte als Aufbruch: Beiträge zur Geschichte der Christlichen Archäologie und Byzantinischen Kunstgeschichte, XXIV. Tagung der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Christliche Archäologie, Bonn, 10.–12. Mai 2018
The contributions were written within the framework of the XXIV conference of the “Arbeitsgemeinschaft Christliche Archäologie zur Erforschung spätantiker, frühmittelalterlicher und byzantinischer Kultur” (AGCA) which took place in Bonn in May 2018. Representatives from institutionally based Early Christian archaeology and Byzantine archaeology and art history in Germany, Aust ria, Italy, Spain, Turkey, the Netherlands and Switzerland give an account on the subject’s history at their respective locations. Prominent researchers are portrayed, important national and international excavations are discussed, as well as the activities of national and international centers of research and of museums. The result is a broad overview of the history of the subject which clearly shows how multifaceted and rich in tradition Early Christian archaeology and Byzantine archaeology and art history are - a foundation for the subject’s future, for continuity as well as for changes.
Monumental Computations: Digital archaeology of large urban and underground infrastructures
The international conference "Cultural Heritage and New Technologies" took place in 2019 on the theme "Monumental Computations - Digital archaeology of large urban and underground infrastructures" at the Vienna City Hall.
The conference papers address the challenges of large urban development projects for the responsible organizers, whose goal is to preserve the cultural heritage of the cities concerned as much as possible. In this context, computer-based approaches are indispensable in all steps of a large urban development project.
