SILA's research programs are characterized by interdisciplinary collaboration. The centre's archaeological studies of the often brilliantly preserved sites and monuments left by prehistoric and historic societies in the Arctic landscapes benefit from collaboration with researchers from disciplines like ethnography, ethno-history, history, and natural sciences.
SILA's projects aim to highlight both the local developments and the major historical changes from the time around 2500 B.C. to the early years of European contacts. Enquiries to the archaeological materials will be made making use of both humanistic as well as approaches derived from social science and natural science.
