DESCRIPTION:\n\nMalabar on the west coast of South India was an important 
 node in the medieval Indian Ocean maritime trade networks at the juncture 
 of cross-cultural encounters between Southwest and Southeast Asia. The wor
 kshop will focus on the role of Arabic and Islam in engendering the transr
 egional networks that operated across the long-distance trade routes. Espe
 cially Madayi\, in north Malabar\, is a promising ground for interdiciplin
 ary research combining ar-chaeological excavations\, textual studies in Ar
 abic and Arabic-Malayalam and ethnoarchaeology to uncover the hidden histo
 ry of Islam in Malabar. Archaeologists\, historians\, ethnologists and exp
 erts on language and culture in the Arab world and in South Asia will gath
 er for combining their respective methodological approaches and analytical
  perspectives in studying the social and cultural history of the region.
