During the conference, a visit to the site of Lepenski Vir in the Iron Gates was organised for the participants; Dr Filipović volunteered as one of the tour guides for the trip. She also took part in the preparation of the exhibition ‘Bioarchaeology in the Danube Gorges’ that constituted an additional aspect of the conference and was put on display in the Centre for Archaeological Research at the Faculty of Philosophy.
