– write the notices according to the template provided (political entities, issuers, species);
– propose a nomenclature for each species, according to the method used in the project;

– contribute to the establishment of a consolidated version of the classification standards;
– contribute to the elaboration of the drawing standards and editorial format;

IRAMAT also reports to 3 regional delegations: DR04, DR06, DR08. IRAMAT is built around a scientific project with an interdisciplinary team of archaeometers, historians and archaeologists. Driven by archaeological and historical issues, research at IRAMAT leads to the development of analytical protocols for characterizing and dating materials, mainly inorganic, and heritage objects. This fully interdisciplinary approach, at the crossroads of archaeology, chemistry, history and physics, and fully integrating the digital humanities, offers a broad and systemic vision of the evolution of the production, distribution and use of materials in ancient societies over a vast period extending from prehistory to the modern era.
