Since its conception in 1998, the Iron Age Research Student
Symposium (formerly 'Seminar') has provided postgraduates in the
archaeology of Iron Age Britain an opportunity to present their
current research in a friendly atmosphere. During the course of
both formal seminars and informal outings (such as field trips,
dinners, and the traditional pub quiz), the Iron Age Research
Student Symposium (IARSS) gives students the ability to discuss
their research with colleagues and peers, in addition to a number
of outstanding lecturers and professors in Iron Age studies.
Previous proceedings volumes (Davis et al. 2006; Humphrey 2003;
Sterry et al. 2010), also offered participants the prospect of
publishing their seminar paper. As a result, IARSS has become a
fixture in the development of new academics while at the same time
contributing fresh perspectives to Iron Age dialogues. This
proceedings volume, organised to reflect three general themes
(migration/interaction, material culture and the built
environment), accomplishes two things. First, it provides an
accessible survey of emerging concepts, ideas, methods, and
fieldwork that will shape future study of the Iron Age. Second, it
is an outline, not just of what the 17th IARSS accomplished, but
also of a broader scheme envisioned by the organisers for future
events in this Symposium series. It is the (perhaps wide-eyed)
expectation of the organisers that the IARSS can and should expand
to offer further opportunities to research students of the Iron
Age, and they firmly hope that this volume aids in the promotion of
this annual Symposium, as well as the ideas of the contributing
authors.
