INSTITUT DE RECHERCHE SUR LES ARCHEOMATERIAUX (IRAMAT)

PESSAC CEDEX

IRAMAT is a multi-site unit (Belfort, Bordeaux and Orléans) which has the originality of being the grouping of three multidisciplinary and perfectly complementary teams, covering the theme of archaeomaterials. They deal with different themes in the fields of History, History of Art, History of Science and Technology and Economics.

Intro
Open media modal
How do both recent and distant traces of the past take on the status of heritage objects? This CNRS exhibition reveals this whole process of transmission. From the discovery of an object to its exhibition through its authentication and protection, science takes an active role in each of these stages and thus creates a link between past civilisations and future generations.

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
