It is always exciting when a new article featuring long-awaited results is released into the wild! Earlier this year, Johannes H. Sterba (a MITAMBA collaborator) and I published “ From Pottery Provenance to Multiscale Diachronic Connectivity at Middle Bronze Age Mitrou, Greece ” in the European Journal of Archaeology, and it is fully open access.

Welcome to a dedicated page reporting on the activities of the "Minyans and Trojans in the Middle Bronze Age (MITAMBA): multiscale networks in the northern Aegean" project. This initiative is funded through a SONATA BIS-13 grant from the National Science Centre Poland and co-ordinated by Christopher Hale, based at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. Check out our About MITAMBA section to find out more about the scope and vision of the project, some of our research questions, and the types of activities we hope to engage with over the next few years. Visit our Team page to find out more about our evolving roster of participants, ranging from technical experts and co-investigators, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students who all bring something unique to the table. We will be posting updates concerning our research activities, fieldwork, publications, conference and workshop presentations, and outreach activities. Al...
