The World Archaeological Congress is the only representative, fully international organization of practicing archaeologists. It encourages open dialogue among all people genuinely concerned with the past and about the nature and contemporary relevance of archaeological practice. More information can be found at: http:\/\/www.ucd.ie\/wac-6<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00c1bhar agus Meon will allow the public to respond to work from international artists exploring the relationships between materials, mentalities, heritage and time.<\/p>\n

\u00c1bhar agus Meon will be the first open international contemporary art exhibition exploring the relations between archaeological and artistic practice, and the exhibition has attracted international media attention:
