The British School at Rome is enthusiastic to present the conference "Biferno Valley Survey - 50 years later" on 7 November 2024. Fifty years ago, British students began exploring the ploughed fields of the Biferno Valley, searching for archaeological materials on the surface. Under the leadership of Graeme Barker, the Biferno Valley Survey grew into a landmark project in understanding the long-term relationship between humans and their environment.
This conference will explore the lasting impact of the Biferno Valley Survey on landscape archaeology and historical interpretation in the Mediterranean. The conference also recognizes the crucial social dimension by inviting – besides Graeme Barker himself – original team members and reflecting on its relevance in society, both then and today. Together with a new generation of students and researchers, we will explore possible directions for future research in an ever-changing landscape.
