[Bonetools] [ZOOARCH] proposed SAA interest group seeking signatures

[Christian Küchelmann]

Dear Sarah, dear Lisa,

some days ago you posted the attached proposal for a new  
Zooarchaeology and Bone Technology Interest Group (ZBTIG) for the  
Society for American Archaeology to ZOOARCH. I forwarded this message  
to BONETOOL, the mailing list of the ICAZ Worked Bone Research Group  
(WBRG), as it was obviously of interest for the colleagues there.

Your proposal evoked quite an amount of interest and a short  
discussion followed leading to the consensus that your proposal is a  
good idea in bringing the research on worked bones forward. The WBRG  
would like to offer you to advertise  your group proposal within the  
news section of the WBRG website:
(http://www.wbrg.net/index.php? 
option=com_content&task=view&id=2&Itemid=3)
When the new working group will have been founded physically we can  
also offer to link you to the WBRG-website (http://www.wbrg.net) and  
avertise your activities there and within the BONETOOL mailing list.

We hope that the two groups will cooperate from the very beginning of  
your new working group and that there will be a fruitful exchange of  
knowledge, information, contacts etc.

If you want me to advertise your proposal as offered, please let me  
know.

With kind regards

Christian
