Mapping Ancient Africa Seminar: The African Pollen Database, state of the art and best practices

The fifth seminar in the Mapping Ancient Africa series focused on the African Pollen Database and past vegetation change in Africa. The seminar was delivered by Sarah Ivory (Penn State University), Rahab Kinyanjui (National Museums of Kenya), and Lynne Quick (Nelson Mandela University). The seminar covers the principles behind and the working of the African Pollen Database (why make data openly available?) and the latest advances in eastern and southern Africa.
