The Centre for Interdisciplinary Archaeological Research, launched in early 2021, is a unique

institutional initiative which brings archaeology and the sciences together in order to offer new

perspectives that will deepen the study of the Indian past. Its ‘birth’ was faculty-driven and evolved

over many months of a serious and sustained conversation between biology and history. As a

consequence of this cross-fertilization, it was decided that the Centre would host two components

which support each other: field-based work and the teaching of archaeology-based courses, along

with laboratories supporting teaching and research.
