An interdisciplinary and international workshop, with speakers from United Kingdom, Germany and France. The focus was on the physics of the parchment material and the synergy between the experimental and historical approaches, at the boundary between sciences and humanities.
The sessions were organized according to the different disciplines and techniques involved (history, bio-archaeology, physical optics, analytical methods, conservation and restoration), with emphasis on synergies between these approaches.
The conference favoured networking between various projects running across Europe, where researchers of a relatively small but active community just begin to know each other and to collaborate.
