Recent Research and New Perspectives

September 21st - 23rd 2016

An international congress on “Elam and its Neighbors: Recent Research and New Perspectives” will take place on September 21st – 23rd 2016, at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany).

The aim of this congress is to report on the current state of research concerning the history, language and culture of Elam and its relationship to neighboring regions. Recent investigations, especially new fieldwork carried out within the last years give a new impulse for further studies. This congress should be an information platform for dissemination of current archaeological and philological findings.

For each presentation about 20 minutes are scheduled with additional 10 minutes for discussion and critical reflection. The admitted papers will be published in a special congress volume. Interested scholars are kindly invited to submit title and abstract (300 words maximum) of their presentation until June 30th 2016.
