About this listen

Stone Circles are one of the most enigmatic traces of the people that lives in Britain and Ireland thousands of years ago. But perhaps you have wondered what other types of archaeological sites and evidence we have from this period, what peoples’ lives were like thousands of years ago, or how archaeologists use the things they find to interpret life in the past? If you have, come and join the archaeologists from Project TIME as they embark on a new project to investigate Prehistoric Britain and Ireland. Each month, the team will be joined by expert guests, to discuss enigmatic sites and artefacts, and the methods we use to analyse and interpret them. From an archaeology newbie, to a seasoned pro, this podcast has something for everyone.

    Episode 2: Setting the Scene
    Mar 22 2021
    This week we are joined by Project Time member Prof. Julian Thomas, who discusses some of the big themes and changes that make 3500-1500 BC in Britian and Ireland such an interesting and dynamic period. We also get to hear his view on the perfect biscuit for on-site tea break, and an unexpected archaeology fact that involves gold, a pub and Netflix.
