ASE research at heart of Institute of Archaeology seminar series

19 December 2022

UK Archaeology is the theme of the Spring Term's seminar series, which runs from 9 January - 20 March 2023. ASE archaeologists will be presenting research and results of excavations from across the south east, and further afield. Information on how to attend below!

The UCL Institute of Archaeology and Archaeology South-East Research Seminars Programme has been announced for Term II (Jan - March 2023). Many ASE staff and our Institute colleagues will be presenting on the theme of UK Archaeology. ASE contributions include fascinating research on medieval pastoralism, 'warrior' burials, geoarchaeology, Roman feeding vessels, and saltworking, from sites across the south east and beyond.

These seminars are on Mondays at 5pm and can be attended in-person and virtually via MS Teams for free! Contact Jo Dullaghan via email (j.dullaghan[at]ucl.ac.uk) if you're interested in attending any of the below. She will add you to an email list so you will recieve the MS Teams link before each session.
