Every week our teams of archaeologists are uncovering interesting finds across the country. Whether it is an artefact or an ecofact, each piece of evidence helps us build a more detailed picture of the past. 

Join us in an exciting journey of discovery.

A little birdy told me that - this is a little birdy. A (mostly) intact bird skull found near the bottom of my pit. It was within soil that had collapsed in, so it’s unlikely that it was discarded as rubbish.
