Where does Sámi archaeology stand today? What new methods and theories have become available to researcher within this field over the last ten years? What new results have been produced? And what ethical issues do these new approaches bring to the fore?
In this conference we aim to gather researchers and recent results of Sámi archaeology to discuss these issues and map out future research strategies and challenges as scientific approaches and issues continue to develop in Sámi research and society.
