2015 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the very first TRAC conference, and TRAC 2015 will be held at the School of Archaeology & Ancient History, University of Leicester from 27 to 29 March 2015.

We would like to thank both the Roman Finds Group and the Association for Environmental Archaeology for sponsoring sessions at this year’s conference.

Funding for bursaries have kindly been provided by the Roman Society and the Barbican Research Associates. We are also pleased to have the support of the Leicestershire Archaeological & Historical Society with organising the trips and the Reception.

As usual the conference will include a poster session, but this year there will also be a round of lightning presentations.
