Subject: CALL FOR PAPERS - SHA 1996 Conference, Cincinnati
 
 Dr. Jack S. Williams, Nicole Newlands, and I would like to invite people to
participate in a proposed symposium that we are organizing for the 1996
Society for Historical Archaeology meetings to be held in Cincinnati, Ohio,
January 2-7, 1996.
 
 The title of the symposium is "Wider Horizons of Spanish Colonial Studies in
Historical Archaeology". The purpose is to bring together papers that relate
to Spanish colonial archaeology from a variety of viewpoints, including
regional, national, and international perspectives. It embraces a diverse
array of topics and approaches which reflect a number of different national,
disciplinary, and theoretical orientations. Collectively, these papers point
to the need to develop a field that envelops all this diversity, where the
wider horizon of the Spanish Colonial experience will be recognized in all its
geographical, social, and historical complexity.
 
 By including these papers in a single symposium, we are also seeking to avoid
the problem of presentations with similar research interests being scheduled
at the same time in different sessions.
 
 SHA membership is NOT a requirement for presenting a paper at the conference.
Nor does one have to be an archaeologist. Our session encompasses both
archaeology and historical material.
 
 If you are interested in participating, please forward the title and abstract
(of 150 words or less), and the preregistration fee ($65 for SHA member, $125
for non-member, $35 for student member, $50 for student non-member) to me by
April 24, 1995 (so that I can send it in by May 1). Students must submit a
copy of a valid student ID card. Please make the check out to SHA '96.
 
 All presenters are required to read and affirm in writing the SHA ethics
statement. If you are interested in participating in the symposium, I will
send you by email a copy of the statement and you can send me a note on it.
 
 Please feel free to pass this notice on to all and sundry lists.
