AIRC faculty publication now in print

AIRC congratulates its Associate Director of Archaeology Alberto Prieto on the recent publication by University of Texas Press of four volumes, co-edited by Alberto with Prof. Joseph C. Carter of the University of Texas at Austin, detailing the results of 20 years of intensive archaeological field survey at Metaponto in Basilicata (southern Italy), where Alberto worked from 1999 to 2007. The full 1648 pages of the publication were on display last week at the Archaeological Institute of America's 2012 Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, where AIRC's Executive Director Darius Arya snapped this evocative image.
