Previous Meetings: 42nd Meeting, Prague 1999

Dear Reader,

The the discovery of archival materials always offers a fortunate opportunity to fill in blank spots in the history of the Permanent International Altaistic Conference (PIAC). This is even more important in cases where no proceedings volume was ever produced.

For the 42nd Meeting of the PIAC held in Prague in 1999 hosted under the auspices of RFE/RL, the following materials are now available in addition to the existing article by Bruce Pannier:

As always, curating the PIAC archive relies on contributions from the PIAC community. Thus, in case you participated in that meeting but do not find your name in the aforementioned materials, please let me know and everything will be duly updated.

Previous Meetings: 61st Meeting Bishkek, 2018

Dear Reader,

the 61st Annual Meeting of the PIAC took place in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, in 2018. With more than 150 participants it definitely is one of the biggest PIAC meetings ever held; the Meeting was part of a series of other, more prominent high-level international events, among them the Third World Nomad Games, the celebrations for the 27th Independence Day of Kyrgyzstan, as well as the 6th Meeting of the Turkic Council, as it was then called.

The introduction contains links to the list of participants, the programme as well the presentations.

Sincerely yours,

Oliver Corff
Secretary General.

42nd Annual Meeting Prague, 1999

Dear Reader,

the 42nd Annual Meeting of the Permanent International Altaistic Conference took place in Prague, Czech Republic, in 1999. It is one of those meetings in the history of the PIAC where neither any conference material nor a proceedings volume are available.

The most comprehensive report was by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty who hosted the 42nd Annual Meeting. Their report here is reproduced with kind permission by RFE/RL.

Previous Meetings: Programme of 16th Meeting, Ankara 1973

Dear Reader,

from the archives of Györges Hazai the editor could obtain the Programme of the 16th Annual Meeting of the Permanent International Altaistic Conference, Ankara 1973. There are some minor differences between this programme and the Proceedings; not all  speakers in the programme appear with their contributions in the Proceedings, but this quite a normal case as usually not all participants submit their papers for publication in written form, and sometimes the editors take an additional step of accepting only a selection of papers offered by the contributors for the Proceedings.

It was a challenging experience for the organizers to organize the 64th Annual Meeting of the Permanent International Altaistic Conference at short notice in Budapest from August 21 to August 26, 2022. Yet all’s well that ends well, and this can be said with all justification about this Meeting.

The Report of the 64th Annual Meeting is now available.
