This page should be renamed to "Digital Archaeology Exhibition", with "Digital Archaeology" being a disambiguation page. "Digital archaeology has come to have two contrasting meanings. The first is the archaeology of digital materials, including excavation of code, analysis of early informatics and interpretation of early web-based materials. The second is (...) digital archaeology as the use of digital technologies in the study of past human societies through their material remains." ^[1]. The current page refers to neither of these general meanings, but to a specific event referring to the first sense.

Note that the second sense, reserved for digital aspects in archaeology is *not* to be confused with "Computational Archaeology". The latter has a narrower definition ("computer-based analytical methods for the study of long-term human behaviour and behavioural evolution" [1]): Digital archaeology is not limited to analytical methods, but it "applies to creation, management, sharing, and preservation of digital data ... in archaeological research" ^[2], it involves "solutions to document and share digital cultural collections [of archaeological data]" ^[3], "[i]t is archaeology, plus all of the lovely new gadgets and gizmos that allow archaeologists and computer scientists to visualize archaeological sites and museum artifacts for themselves and for the public." ^[4].

Agree. Redirecting the subject of Digital archaeology to a project does not seem to make sense. As noted above, it does not differentiate between two widely used definitions of digital archaeology: archaeology relating to digital materials and use of digital technologies in the study of (traditional) archaeology. --Natkeeran (talk) 15:00, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
