Timeline

2020

In June 2020, Anne Haour contributed to a series on African monetary history, Money no get enemy, by Canada-based Odoba Media, informing the series with her work on cowrie shells. Odoba Media's goal is to reach audiences, including Africans in the continent and the diaspora, and to facilitate a paradigm shift in how their listeners think about money and poverty.

2019

In 2019, Anne Haour held a British Academy Writing Workshop Bringing the Past to Print: Archaeology for and by West African Scholars in Cotonou, Benin, with Didier N’Dah, supporting early career scholars from Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Benin to prepare publications for international peer-reviewed journals.

2018

Over 2018 and 2019, the University of East Anglia has awarded her three Global Challenges Research Funds-Quality Related awards, for work conducted in the UK, Maldives and Benin, relating mainly to the issues of heritage loss and coastal erosion.

2015

From 2015 to 2018, Anne Haour co-led a Leverhulme Trust funded project with Alastair Grant (School of Environmental Sciences, University of East Anglia), exploring the maritime and terrestrial networks which linked the Indian Ocean and West Africa through the trade in cowrie shells. Bridging archaeology, anthropology and marine biology, it entailed fieldwork in the Maldives, the UK, Ghana and Senegal. The project consisted mainly of archaeological and ethnographic fieldwork in the Maldives and East Africa as well as the study of private archaeological collections and museum holdings in the UK, Senegal and Ghana. These two aspects of the research project also involved a subsequent phase of study of the material collected, including physical handling, description, analysis and measurement, as well as cataloguing and mapping. Through archaeological work, Anne Haour and her colleagues have shown that cowrie shells were important in the medieval Maldives, and that archaeological evidence can add substantially to the knowledge of these islands’ early history. Artefacts recovered spanned a broad range of provenances, from the Middle East to China. The surveys conducted also showed that environmental conditions in the Maldives offered a habitat favourable to Monetaria moneta cowries, testifying to the importance of these islands in the international cowrie trade. The thorough study of cowries’ characteristics and features (shell length, teeth, shape) has resulted in the development of reliable criteria to differentiate the various species in most archaeological samples, which eventually helps highlight the connections of medieval West Africa with the rest of the world. Interviews with Maldivian informants also helped document the use and value of cowries while situating their exploitation alongside other cultural practices such as fishing, boatbuilding, coir making, thatch weaving and local histories. The project contributed to a fuller understanding of the anthropology and cultural history not only of the Maldivian archipelago, but more widely of the Western Indian Ocean trade networks in which it participated. Outputs include publications, two UNESCO briefings and a conference on the heritage of the western Indian Ocean organised with John Mack and colleagues at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts.

2014

From October 2014 to February 2015, the exhibition Crossroads of Empires, one of the outcomes of the Crossroads research project, was on display at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts. The exhibition was curated by Dr Sam Nixon in partnership with the Direction of Cultural Heritage and Université Abomey Calavi, Benin. It offered a unique opportunity to see a selection of objects excavated by Anne Haour and her team during their fieldwork, while offering an insight into archaeological research.

2012

In 2012, Anne Haour led the project Depicting Africa: Hausa as a Muslim Identity in Nigeria and Niger, West Africa, funded by an Arts and Humanities Research Council Youth Impact Grant. The project was conducted at the secondary school City Academy Norwich and aimed to challenge Year 7 pupils’ stereotypes of Africa and also to raise their aspirations by giving them a taste of university-style lectures and a chance to design their own tour around the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts. The project was co-organised with the secondary school Lycée Amadou Kouran Daga in Zinder, Niger, and involved joint teaching sessions. The project generated coverage in the Times Educational Supplement and the London School of Economics Public Policy Group, among others. The website of Depicting Africa makes available the didactic materials used during these lessons, with the aim of serving as a teaching resource for other schools working on stereotypes related to identity and religion.

2011

Between 2011 and 2015 she ran Crossroads, a five-year European Research Council Starter Grant project in northern Benin. The team included anthropologists, archaeologists, art historians, and historians; workmen; students from Niger, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Belgium and the UK. During the main field season, she headed a team of 78 people. The aim of the Crossroads project was to document material culture past and present from a 100 km-long stretch of the Niger River Valley which was subject to conflicting historical descriptions of its medieval landscape and which sits on some of the world's major axes of communication. The project resulted in the documentation of hundreds of previously unknown sites, tens of thousands of objects, and hundreds of interviews with local informants. A regional framework was established, documenting material culture, subsistence, technological practices, stories about the past, and settlement sequences. These new data were set within the broader context of history, palaeoenvironment, landforms and vegetation. Excavations showed that the region was densely occupied in medieval times, with important ramifications for wider questions around the power base of precolonial polities, linkages between past and present cultural groups, communications along the Niger and across the Sahara, and the role of disease, environmental change, and enslavement. The project was presented in the exhibition Crossroads of Empires at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich, as well as a co-hosted conference in Cotonou, many publications and outreach events in the source communities for the restitution of the research outcomes.

2002

From 2002 to 2005, she was a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow and Tutor for Archaeology & Anthropology at Hertford College, University of Oxford.
