The recent Digital Infrastructures and New (and Evolving) Technologies in Archaeology roundtable was organised by ARIADNEplus at the CAA 2021 Digital Crossroads virtual conference. This session focussed on issues of technologies already in use by research infrastructures and requirements and potential benefits of introducing new technologies, such as Linked Data, NLP, Image Recognition and other data processing applications. The roundtable attracted an audience of 49 participants despite some logistical and technical challenges faced by the Chairs, Holly Wright (ADS) and Doug Tudhope (USW). One of these challenges was that the audience could not actively participate and ask questions but there were live discussions between the panellists about each of the presentations which helped make up for this.
The roundtable presenters was:
