  • TAG time! The Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG) conference will be hosted in Edinburgh this year for the first time (15-17 December 2022). The main theme will be 'revolutions', thus establishing a link with the most famous archaeologist who has worked at Edinburgh, Vere Gordon Childe, and his concepts of the Neolithic and the urban ‘revolutions’. While views on these specific topics have shifted considerably over time, we think that ‘revolution(s)’ – understood here in a broad sense – is still a relevant concept within the discipline.
