- Eight papers delivered at a session of the 2008 meeting of the Society for American Archaeology, in Vancouver, BC were updated in the middle of 2010, and joined by two solicited papers to round out the coverage. They explore digital archaeology from perspectives of a web of archaeological data: infrastructure, services, and interoperability; the technical and theoretical context of archaeology on the web; archaeological knowledge production and dissemination in the digital age; and sustainability, quality, and access.
