Christmas and other festivities associated with the winter solstice are a wonderful opportunity to imagine changes. At IJSRA, we work everyday on a voluntary basis to transform the academic publishing landscape, in our firm belief that authors should not have to pay for publishing, and that making research freely available to a global readership help address growing (academic) inequalities worldwide. We aim to make an impact through an independent, unaffiliated, open-access student forum, without any submission, publication, or subscription fees. Therefore, what better time to publish our second issue that in this merry Christmas Eve. We have an amazing variety of contents, including original fieldwork in Botswana, a model for undergraduate skills development, Indo-Greek coinage, heritage legislation in the Philippines, medieval perceptions and attitudes to health, a reassessment of Natufian sedentism, a Big Data cross-cultural analysis, a book review, and reviews of many conferences! We hope you enjoy reading these outstanding examples of student scholarship! We are now accepting submissions for our third issues; we will be reviewing manuscripts on a rolling basis, so submit when you're ready! Recommended deadline: March 15th As part of our constant efforts to reach as wide an audience as possible, we are always looking for people with diverse research interests to join our growing international team. If you are committed to improve the presence of excellent student scholarship in archaeology, please do get in touch!

Diversity in Archaeology-Proceedings of the Cambridge Annual Student Archaeology Conference 2020/2021, 2022
Diversity in Archaeology is the result of the fourth Cambridge Annual Student Archaeology Conference (CASA 4), held virtually from January 14–17, 2021. CASA developed out of the Annual Student Archaeology Conference, first held in 2013, which was formed by students at Cambridge, Oxford, Durham and York. In 2017, Cambridge became the home of the conference and the name was changed accordingly. The conference was developed to give students (from undergraduates to PhD candidates) in archaeology and related fields the chance to present their research to a broad audience. The theme for the 2020/2021 conference was Diversity in Archaeology which opened our conference to multiple interpretations, varied presentations and sundry perspectives from different regions of the world. This volume consists of 30 papers which were presented in 7 different sessions. The papers present a great variety in both geography and chronology and explore a wide range of topics such women’s voices in archaeological discourse; researching race and ethnicity across time; use of diversified science methods in Archaeology; critical ethnographic studies; diversity in the Archaeology of Death; heritage studies; archaeology of ‘scapes’ and more.
Report from the III Annual Student Archaeology Conference (ASA Conference
The main goal of this Annual Student Archaeology Conference¹ was to gather young, future scholars and to give them the chance to present the results of their research or interests. One of the many advantages was the open character of this annual meeting. The participants included graduate and undergraduate students from different countries from around the world. The leading subject of the conference was archaeology but there was also some room for social sciences, anthropology and ethnography. Every year the organising committee suggests very broad topics such as developing integrated archaeology, animals and humans, culture or heritage. Thanks to this approach, the delegates are able to compare divergent views on a particular subject and to build a diverse, international social network. The first edition of the Annual Student Archaeology Conference took place in 2013 at the University of York. It became a tradition that each subsequent event is held in different city of the United Kingdom. After York, ASA Conferences were held in Reading and Edinburgh. The host of the Third ASA Conference was the School of History, Classics and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh. The third ASA lasted from 11th until 13th June 2015. All the presentations were divided into four main panels: Applied Archaeological Theory, Scientific Archaeological Methods, Archaeology Beyond Academia and Historical Archaeology. Such a selection of topics enabled the significant role of archaeology in understanding the modern culture to be showcased. It is worth remarking is that the conference was concluded with a competition for the best posters and presentations. ¹On-line: http://www.asaconference.org.uk/.
