ONLINE TALK:
Part of the events programme alongside the Introducing Must Farm, a Bronze Age settlement exhibition.
Following the publication of the final report on the Must Farm settlement (excavated in 2015-16), hear from the archaeologists and specialists involved in the excavations and post-excavation research to discover the most up-to-date research and theories about the site. The first time all these experts have been brought together in one series, these talks are not to be missed!
All talks will take place online, beginning at 7:30pm.
Speaker: Rachel Ballantyne, University of Cambridge
Thursday 3 October, 7:30pm
This talk outlines – from sampling to the laboratory – the diverse methods used to reveal microscopic and molecular evidence for home life at Must Farm. Results illustrate the preparation and storage of ingredients, the remains of different meals, and the organisation of household space. Although the pile-dwelling settlement was built over a fen waterway, a significant proportion of the plant and animal resources were brought from dry land elsewhere. When combined, these strands of evidence give an unprecedented insight into Bronze Age life, both at home and in the wider landscape.
