5. 17TH CONGRESS OF THE INDO-PACIFIC PREHISTORY ASSOCIATION, ACADEMIA SINICA, TAIPEI, TAIWAN.
9 TO 15 SEPTEMBER 2002.

The next Congress of IPPA will be held in cooperation with the Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica, and the Department of Anthropology, National Taiwan University, in Taipei, Taiwan, from 9th to 15th September 2002. This schedule will allow 6 full days for papers, together with a mid-conference local fieldtrip. A post-conference trip of 3 days to eastern and southeastern Taiwan will also be organised.

Accommodation and conference sessions will be in the Centre for Academic Activities on the Academia Sinica campus in Nankang, eastern Taipei. Information on costs (accommodation, tours, registration etc) will be sent out later. Single room accommodation in the Centre for Academic Activities is currently about US$25 per night, and we will also arrange for buffet meals, Chinese style, which will of course cost extra (how much extra we do not yet know, but we will try to keep costs under US$50 per day full board if we can).

Program Preliminaries: The conference program will be put together from two major sources of information:
a) sessions suggested by IPPA members or other delegates, and
b) sessions created by the conference organisers in the light of paper titles volunteered by the IPPA membership (see below).

Remember that anyone who offers to convene a session will need to:
1. Have a list of possible speakers.
2. Contact these people, ask if they wish to come, and later on send details to IPPA.
3. Carry out some basic editorial work on the session papersafter the conference.

Please contact IPPA, Archaeology and Anthropology, ANU, Canberra ACT 0200, Australia (e-mail: [email protected]; fax: 61 2 61252711) if you are thinking of attending.
