Lecture series: "Cattle Histories: Regional and Global Perspectives"

We are pleased to announce the upcoming lecture series: Cattle Histories: Regional and Global Perspectives.

With this lecture series the ERC project CATTLEFRONTIERS (www.cattlefrontiers.eu) brings together historians and anthropologists working on the history of cattle from regional, (trans)imperial and global perspectives. The lectures will tease out human-animal interactions, commodification processes as well as regional and global trades with cattle and cattle commodities over the past centuries.

You can find the abstracts at CATTLEFRONTIERS — Lecture Series

All lectures will be streamed online, and select sessions will also be available in person. Please register for each session at https://event.ugent.be/registration/CattleHistories

The first session is on veterinary medecine in South Africa, on the 29th of september.
