Nabu Na’id and Pleyte are proud to present the annual DUSANE symposium. DUSANE is a symposium centered around the Near East, organised by students from the archaeology study association L.A.S Terra’s subgroup Nabu Na’id and Oude Nabije Oosten study association Pleyte, sponsored by NINO.
This year’s edition will take place on the 13th of April in the Main Hall of the Faculty of Archaeology’s Van Steenis building.
Between every speaker, there is a break, so feel free to join when you have time or swing by for the lectures you are particularly interested in. Of course, drinks and snacks are provided throughout the symposium, and afterwards is an opportunity for drinks and post-symposium conversation.
We hope to see you there!
