DESCRIPTION:Geometric morphometrics is a specific technique us
 ed to learn on spatial and temporal variability of
  specific shapes. Originally developed within the 
 realm of Biology\, archaeologists have by now wide
 ly adopted it to infer on material culture pattern
 s. However\, the application of the technique for 
 the analysis of material culture is not always str
 aightforward and comes with its very own challenge
 s and caveats.\n\nIn this talk\, the most common p
 rocedures and applications of the technique will b
 e reviewed\, including what are the specific probl
 ems derived from its application on anthropogenic 
 material. Additionally\, some examples will be off
 ered on how can we bring this technique forward\, 
 diversify its uses and integrate it into broader r
 esearch questions\, so that we can develop further
  its great potential.\n\n*This event is in person\
 , but will be streamed at: https://zoom.us/j/95506
