Good morning everyone! Our EGM is in only a few hours, we hope to see you all there!

We made our quorum!! Thank you to everyone who came to join us. We have a lot to cover!

GRMA to all who attended our EGM, it was a success! We passed our new constitution, discussed our 5-year strat, intro'd the new Human Remains Guidelines, had a presentation on archaeology student nos from Dr Richard Clutterbuck, & had a great talk by Dr Rebecca Boyd. A good day!

The IAI would like to offer sympathies to the family & friends of Professor Colin Renfrew, who has sadly passed away. A true giant of archaeology, he will be greatly missed by not only those who knew him, but by everyone in the field of archaeology. arch.cam.ac.uk/news/professor…
