Subject:ARAM Conference info

Dear Colleague,
The previous date of the ARAM Twenty Fifth International Conference  
1-3 July 2008 at Oxford University has been changed to 7-9 July 2008,  
because of the World Archaeological Congress (WAC) at Dublin University.
We hope that the new date of our ARAM conference 7-9 July 2008 is  
convenient for you.
We would like also to encourage those who have not yet registered for  
the above ARAM conference to do so before August.
Please find enclosed the names of the first speakers.
Yours sincerely,

Shafiq Abouzayd (Dr.)
