Debating Spatial Archaeology is the title of an International Workshop on Landscape and Spatial Analysis in Archaeology that will be held in Santander (Spain), in June 2012. The main aim is to provide a debate forum where archaeologists can discuss what space means in Archaeology, how it is perceived and interpreted by archaeologists, and why. Keeping in mind the need for a connection between methodology issues, analysis results and interpretations, participants are encouraged not only to analyse spatial variability, but to point out the probable reasons for such variability from in terms of social space, as well as to discuss how their spatial analyses can improve the understanding of social and historical dynamics within their case studies. It will revolve around four main issues:

• Beyond archaeological spatial datasets: Old restrictions and New Opportunities in Archaeological Spatial Information.
• The use of space from an evolutionary perspective.
• People beyond the numbers: the anthropological implications of spatial analyses.
• Open Dissertation: “...And now; what we do with Spatial Archaeology?”
