Open scientific research is becoming more common in archaeology and the Humanities more broadly. For example, an SAA special interest group was recently launched and the need for open science in Archaeology is explained in readable detail by Marwick and colleagues in this paper. But there’s still a lot of work to be done! On 21 June there will be a free conference on the topic in Barcelona that promises to provoke some excellent discussion and could be a catalyst for change. Hope to see you there!
