This Summer School, which started on Monday, July 15th and ends today, at the D. Diogo de Sousa Museum, in Braga, was promoted by HERCULES – University of Évora with the collaboration of members of Lab2PT – University of Minho / IN2PAST and technicians from the Museum. The activities took place on a daily basis, bringing together a total of around 30 participants, from different academic backgrounds, from undergraduate to doctoral level.

According to HERCULES officials, in view of the high demand among trainees, a new edition of the school is planned for the near future.
