The Levantine Ceramics Project (LCP) is a collaborative venture of archaeologists working on Levantine ceramics of all eras—from the Neolithic period (c. 5500 B.C.E.) through Ottoman times (c. 1920). Regular workshops are an integral component of the project. At workshops contributors present new discoveries and add information to the LCP’s ever-growing data set. We share ideas, discuss issues of terminology and definition, and better our overall understanding of the field.

Since 2012 the LCP has facilitated workshops in Greece, Israel, Turkey, Poland, Belgium, France, and the United States.

If you are interested in hosting or participating in an LCP workshop, please contact the LCP editor (aberlin@bu.edu) for more information.
