• Annual 5-day summer school in Barcelona (25-29 June 2024)
  • Teaching the theory and practice of network research
  • For those studying the human past (historians, archaeologists, classicists, …)
  • No prior computational skills required, but willingness to learn.

Network approaches are commonly used in diverse studies of the human past: analyzing letter correspondence in 16th century England, mapping the similarity of material culture in the prehispanic US Southwest, reconstructing ancient Roman family ties as revealed through funerary inscriptions, and much more. Such research is supported by thriving international communities, conference series, a journal, and textbooks. But dedicated training in the theory and practice of network research is missing in most history and archaeology degree programmes.
