Overview

This two-day conference seeks to bridge disciplinary gaps between (but not limited to) anthropology, archaeology, history, and literature. It aims to move beyond debates about whether or not cannibalism occurred, and to ask instead why cannibalism mattered to people at the time. Selected papers will appear as an edited volume under contract with the University of Arkansas Press.
