| Membership of BANEA is open to anyone who is interested in
the archaeology, languages and history of the Ancient Near East. The Association
exists to bring together professionals and non professionals with similar
interests, to distribute and exchange information about recent developments
in the field, and to make such information available to a wider public.
These aims are achieved by various means. An annual Newsletter, which will generally contain brief reports on current British fieldwork in the region, information on universities and museums with relevant departments, news about exhibitions, new books, research in progress and grants, is distributed to all members. BANEA also organises Schools Days. A conference open to all members is also held every year and takes place in a different university or institution each time. The next conference will be held in Durham, 8-10 January 2009. Details and registration forms will be sent to members. Membership of BANEA also entitles you to membership of one of the Regional Groups which organise their own programmes of lectures and events. For further information please write to: Dr Joanne Clarke Chair, BANEA. School of World Art Studies, University of East Anglia, Norwich, NR4 7TJ. Your subscription helps us achieve our aims and fund these activities Subscriptions for 2009 are now due. Subsciptions, standing orders and gift aid Student grants for conferences |
Conferences:There will be no annual conference in 2010. Instead BANEA will be sponsoring a workshop and providing grants to help students attend. Applications are now invited for BANEA Student Grants for 2010 BANEA Student Grants will be offered to attend ICAANE London in April. Applications from students who have a genuine reason for attending, or are giving a paper or a poster will be considered. Grant application forms are available for submission through the BANEA website. The deadline for registration for ICAANE London is 31 December 2009 so it is recommended that applications are submitted for BANEA student grants by 30 November 2010 in order that students can learn of decisions in advance of the ICAANE London registration closing date. Students who receive a grant to attend ICAANE London will be expected to give some of their time to tending the BANEA Information Stand that will be set up at ICAANE London. Students will not be expected to give more than half a day of their time to this.
