ANTHROPOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION OF GREECE

|
The Anthropological Association of Greece is a scientific
society founded by the initiative of Dr Aris Poulianos in 1971, during
hard times for the scientific research in Greece. One of the most important
reasons of its foundation was (and practically still is) the lack of organized
state or other institution promoting anthropological sciences.
The society goals are concentrated in coordinating the efforts of everyone intrested in collecting data and material on palaeoanthropolgy, ethnogenesis, ethnology, linguistics, archaeology, archaeometry, palaeontology, spelaeology, genetics, geology, sociology, statistics, philosophy, anthropology of current populations, as well as on any relevant science. The achievement of above purposes is planned by the study and the elaboration of the scientific material, the announcement and publication of results, the organization of lectures and congresses, as well as the development of closer international relations with analogous scientific foreign institutions and the collaboration and the exchange of knowledge between scientific teams. The Anthropological Association of Greece is member of the International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences (IUAES) and founding member of the European Anthropological Association (EAA). All titles of articles of the association are available in Greek language. |
