New approaches in (studying) the prehistoric past

This event will be a one-off in celebration of the achievements and legacy of one of Britain’s most influential archaeologists, Professor John Coles, who was sadly lost to us in 2020. It will be organised around four themes that were dear to his heart: Heritage Management, Wetland Archaeology, Experimental Archaeology and Rock Art. Two key speakers will address each topic and there will be invited shorter, personal contributions and a discussion to round off the morning and afternoon.

Confirmed speakers include: Martin Bell, Bob Bewley, Richard Bradley, Richard Brunning, Ed Carriere, Dale Croes, Anne Crone, Marta Diaz-Guardamino, Bo Graslund, Linda Hurcombe, Simon Kaner, Matt Knight, Steve Minnitt, Courtney Nimura, Roeland Paardekooper, Marion Uckelmann.
