Symposia

Oxford Centre for Maritime Archaeology (OCMA)

In a common effort between the University of Oxford, the Hilti Foundation and the Institut Européen d’Archéologie Sous-Marine (IEASM) the Oxford Centre for Maritime Archaeology was established in 2003. As part of the Oxford’s School of Archaeology it provides specialist knowledge for the analysis and publication of the material excavated by the IEASM, it participates in the excavations and organizes academic conferences.
